Analysis of breeding and performance of horses in the Czech Republic based on eventing competitions

Original language description

This work deals with riding competitions - eventing and includes statistical evaluation of the effect of the breed, age, year of start and sex on the performance of the horses. Data were taken from the Survey of Sport Horses of 2005 and 2015. These data are issued by the Czech Equestrian Federation. Data were further processed and statistically analysed using the program STATISTICA 2012. Evaluation of the sport performance was based on the auxiliary points (AAP). The breed, age and year of start have a statistically significant effect on performance. The breed with the highest performance was the Irish sport horse with 17.4 AAP. The best results were achieved by horses of 13 to 16 years of age (AAP 11.81). The most frequently used breeds in the Czech Republic are the Czech warm-blood and the English Thoroughbred. The performance of imported breeds was better than of horses born in the Czech Republic. The performance of horses in 2015 was better than in 2005. We can see an increasing tendency in the performance. In conclusion we compared the situation in the Czech Republic over the past ten years by comparing the gradual change in their representation of the sex, breeding and country of birth.
