Average Earnings Index - AEI
|
Lifetime Average Earnings Index - AEI - indicates how much purse money the progeny of one sire has earned in relation to
the average earnings of all runners in the same time frame. The average earnings of all runners is represented by an index
of 1.00, and is calculated for each calendar racing year. A stallion's AEI is calculated for each year he has runners and
then averaged for all years his progeny have raced.

Example (the data below is for example only, and not actual numbers)
Stallion A has had progeny race in each year from 1990 through 1994, a total of 5 years.
