Discipline Potential Evaluation

[Silverine]

I could only find the speed comment in the green and not-coloured comments - the mare has that comment highlighted in gold. And I still can't find the second comment? I'm not sure if I'm still looking incorrectly.

Thanks for making this, by the way, it's incredibly helpful

You're right, I'd missed the gold comment for that message. It is now added in.
The balance comment is there. It's next to the 29.4 score.

Update!

If any of you are like me, you find it annoying to switch back and forth between all of the BR Score guide sheets. I finally went ahead and made a sheet with all of the scores on one page!

This sheet can only be edited by me, so if you see mistakes or missing comments (like above), please let me know so that I can fix it.

Also let me know if you like this format and I'll update the normal sheet to include this one.

This is the most helpful thing in the world!

This stallion has "This stallion is a natural mover" as a gold comment but it's not in the spreadsheet, unless I'm missing it?

No, it’s on there. The score is 76.3. You must have missed it.

76.3 is for "This stallion/mare is a natural mover" as a green comment. I don't see it under the gold section.

Oh yeah you’re right!

Evaluating Stud Quality

Update below!

So as I posted earlier I have been working on a little project to help players determine what they should show their horses in. It's not much but I hope it helps some players out.

What I've made is a Google spreadsheet that takes in information about your horse's conformation and breeder's report and spits out a general idea of what they'd be best at. (Please note that them doing the best at that thing does not equate to them actually being good at it.) I will admit right off the bat that I made some assumptions in the making of this sheet and am probably missing some data, so the evaluations may not be 100% accurate. However, this should still give you a good idea of the things your horse might do well.

My sheet evaluates two different potentials - one based on the breeder's report, the other based on conformation - and then averages them to get a total potential for each discipline. HWO scores each discipline based on four of a horse's eight attributes. I used the attributes being judged to determine a horse's potential as follows:

Potential = ((Stat 1 Score * 4) + (Stat 2 Score * 3) + (Stat 3 Score * 2) + Stat 4 Score) / 10

Potential is a percentage! This means that if your horse has a 75.2 total potential score, then it has 75% of the maximum potential for that discipline. A potential of 100 would be a horse that is perfect and can not possibly improve on its conformation or breeder's report for that discipline.

Conformation scores are evaluated based on their relation to the max score for the stat. (Max confo scores are sourced directly from horses on HWO, and will be updated if/when I find higher scores.) So if Movement has a max score of 68, a horse with a 68 would have a score of 100 for Movement. The sheet calculates this for you so you don't have to worry about it, I just thought people should know how it works.

The sheet has lists to help you determine your horse's base Breeder's Report score for each attribute. Along the bottom of the sheet is a row of tabs with titles such as "BR Score Guide - Strength" or "BR Score Guide - Agility". Choose the score guide for which stat you are looking at, then find your horse's BR comment. If your horse's stat is red, gold, or green be sure to choose the box that has the same color background. The appropriate score for that comment will be in a box to the right. Then all you have to do is take that score and plug it into the appropriate orange box on the main sheet.

Here is an example of the sheet with one of my horse's stats filled in. <- I'm going to say that the sheet did pretty well on this evaluation. The horse being evaluated was specifically bred for Dressage and clearly has better evaluations in those areas.

Click here to get your own, blank copy. <- This link will have you make a copy of the blank sheet to your Google drive (you do not need a Google account to do this). That way we don't have everyone editing the same sheet at once.

Update! I've made a sheet with all of the breeder's report scores on one page for ease of use.

Please let me know what you think! Feel free to point out any errors you find or ways I can improve the analysis.

Non-Premium Players! You do not need conformation scores for this sheet to be helpful, though they will make the evaluation more accurate. But if you want to fill in the conformation scores there are usually plenty of nice premium players willing to help out.

Update! - 5/4/2018 - I just realized something and it makes me feel oblivious. If you right click on 'Sheet 1' you will find a 'Duplicate' option. If you click this it will create an exact copy of Sheet 1. In this way you can keep one horse on Sheet 1 and put another on the duplicate, allowing you to easily compare the two! You can duplicate Sheet 1 as many times as you want, and even name the sheets after the horse whose data is on it. Hopefully this comes in handy.

Yey Silverine! I thought you'd like to know that your BR report guide needs to be updated. I only know for strength but there might be some more. I will also offer proof:
This colt is stronger than an ox! - https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2497568
This colt is stronger than a bull! - https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2487401
This stallion/mare won't be winning gold medals at the Olympics, but he's/she's still stronger than your average horse. - https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2491723
