Statistics by EquiStat. 

Article by Tanya Randall

Barrel racing surpassed the $50 million milestone in 2023 with EquiStat tabulating the results of 1,468 shows for $55.9 million. That’s an increase of $8.6 million from 2022’s $47.3 million, a growth rate of 18%, with only 27 more shows added to the data pool. The top 25 events accounted for $24.1 million, or 43% of all money won in the industry. Purses within that group rose by $4 million.

While purses rose, the same cannot be said for the number of actual competitors receiving a share. In spite of additional events, the number of money-winning horses, riders and sires stagnated, marked by scant decreases. Outside of the COVID year of 2020, that’s never happened when EquiStat has increased the number of events tabulated.

Although those decreases in horses and riders receiving money are statistically insignificant, they indicate a trend that’s been growing over the past several years. Purses have been soaring, sometimes with growth near 50% over five and 10 years ago, but the number of horses and riders winning that money hasn’t increased by the double digits, yet staying less than 10%. 

The increased use of carryover times has concentrated the distribution of money for horses and riders. A glance back at past statistical issues will show how there was very little crossover from the leading aged-event horses to the divisional charts. Now, the divisional charts, which will be discussed in full in the April 2024 issue of Barrel Horse News, are dominated by aged-event horses.

It’s also evident through individual EquiStat reports, which show the same time may be responsible for two, three or even four checks on one run. This has increased steadily over the years. Carryovers are a boon for producers and put less runs on the equine athletes, but they’re also concentrating the distribution of purses. The incentive programs concentrated the industry’s wealth within an elite group of stallions. The number of sires of money winners declined at a rate of 2% over each of the past two years. However, the number of owners and breeders are growing at about the same rate. EquiStat traced 13,940 owners in 2023, up by 412, and 10,725 breeders, up by 219.

DISCLAIMER: Owner statistics are only as good as the records of registering associations. EquiStat records are by date of transfer, not by date of sale. Therefore, horses may be listed under the name of their former owners due to either the date of transfer in relation to the date that money was earned, or the failure to transfer ownership to a new party. 

ABOUT THIS REPORT: This 29th Annual Barrel Horse News Statistical Review contains information compiled, researched and tabulated by EquiStat, the statistical division of Morris Equine Network, from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023, with the exception of Top Horses Futurity Year chart (November 15, 2022 to December 15, 2023). Managing director of EquiStat is Tysha Holderby. Kim Johnson, Donna Timmons and Raenelle Pipps work as statisticians. All contents and statistics in this issue are © 2023 by Morris Equine Network and cannot be reproduced in any form without permission. Monetary amounts reflect earnings from complete, official results submitted from aged events, divisional races, straight-run races and WPRA sanctioned rodeos. Full results with the event’s location, added money per class and entries per class, as well as, registered horse names are preferred and are entered before shows lacking this information. Money attributed to the horses, riders, owners and breeders indicate the amount of money awarded, and in no way reflects who received the money. BHN appreciates producers’ efforts to submit accurate and complete results to EquiStat. Every attempt has been made to make this statistical report as accurate as possible; however, we cannot be responsible for the accuracy of any data provided by show management. EquiStat is not responsible for tracking down results from individual shows. Producers who wish to have their shows included in statistical issues may email complete results to [email protected].
