… The Jockey Club, which is the national registry for the Thoroughbred breed, will also begin to collect and analyze data about how the progeny of certain sire lines fare on scales such as average length of racing career, average starts, and average distance of winning races, Bowen said.

Bowen said the Jockey Club would seek to "highlight" the statistics of horses who performed better than their peers. He acknowledged that such a project could be controversial among breeders if the Jockey Club's data indicated that certain sire lines were producing horses that performed well below the average.

"I'm prepared to live with the fact that we may offend some people, but we want to help people create a safer, sounder horse," Bowen said.
