While the overall figure will undoubtedly increase due to late registrations, it seems unlikely to match the 214 litters produced in 2017.
Looking longer term, the number of litters have halved in each of the last two decades. The peak of UK breeding was back in 1981 with 1,560 litters.
The leading sire with 18 litters is the McNair’s former open race star Leamaneigh Turbo. Droopys Nidge pitches in with nine.
The top two on the open race sires table, Kinloch Brae and Laughil Blake pitch in with eight litters each while the popular Droopys Buick and Derby winner Dorotas Wildcat has six apiece.
