* Very few mares achieve the distinction of the title "Elite St Pr St". This is awarded only to mares who are outstanding producers of State Premium daughters, National Mare Show winners and licensed sons. These mares have the ability to produce quality offspring even when covered by stallions that may be considered to be of less quality!
