The Dartmoor Pony Society has a grading system for stallions. Stallions become Premium or Super Premium through the progeny they have sired winning at the Society’s star shows. Only the first win (excluding foal classes) count so for instance Hisley Craftsman has sired 23 colts or fillies each out of a different mare and each colt or filly winning a minimum of one Star Show.
Thanks to Caroline Belam (Dartmoor Pony Society Archivist) and Tisha Roberts for compiling this information.
