"Baaeed’s first two books of mares have the highest-average CPI of any European stallion since Frankel."
There is a general correlation between racing class and production class in mares, for which reason the better the books of mares a stallion receives, the better his chances of success. Racing class is summarised in a statistic known as the CPI (Class Production Index), which is produced by the US Jockey Club. The analysis shows that Baaeed’s first two books of mares have the highest-average CPI of any European stallion since Frankel.
