Did you know that you can consult our rankings from every year since 2015? Hippomundo has made it possible to find out which horses, riders, breeders, stallions etc were most successful per individual year. More recently, an overall ranking has been created to discover the most influential stallions since the start of 2015 based on their number of offspring, the total amount of prize money won by their offspring and the average amount of prize money won per offspring of a particular stallion.
