About
G1 Goldmine is a data-centric breeding intelligence platform built specifically for thoroughbred horse breeders and stallion farms. Operating across 26 countries, it provides access to one of the most comprehensive pedigree databases in the industry, covering 29 key data points including a global list of stakes winners, leading sires, broodmare sires, and race records. The platform's flagship feature, Stallion Match®, generates hypothetical matings and surfaces graded stakes winners from around the world whose pedigrees closely resemble a proposed cross — enabling breeders to replicate the bloodlines of champion racehorses. The Pedigree Search tool allows users to research recurring pedigree patterns found in superior racehorses, search any combination of sires, view stakes wins attributed to each cross, and access full pedigree histories and race records. The 4x4 Impact Analysis tool adds another layer of sophistication by assigning positive and negative impact scores to specific sire and dam-sire combinations within four generations of a pedigree, helping breeders identify complementary or conflicting bloodline pairings before committing to a mating. G1 Goldmine is trusted by professional breeders, stud farm managers, bloodstock agents, and serious hobbyist breeders who want a competitive edge. Flexible membership plans — from a free 7-day trial to an annual Pro subscription — make it accessible at every level of the industry.
