The FEIF WorldRanking is a system to compare results of riders of pure-bred Icelandic horses at selected sport events all over the world with each other.
FEIF started the WorldRanking in this form in 1995. It is a continuous system: every day a new ranking list is computed. The riders' position in the ranking lists may vary per day! Riders can check what events do count for the FEIF WorldRanking and what marks they did get at any WorldRanking event.
How is the position of a rider computed?
The position of a rider in any discipline in the FEIF WorldRanking is based upon the arrhythmic mean of the three best results with any horse in the respective disciplines. A rider will need at least three scores of 5.50 or higher in the oval track classes Tölt T1 (incl. T3), Tölt T2, Four Gait V1 (incl. V2), Five Gait F1 (incl. F2) or the equivalent time in Pace Race 250m P1 (25.60"), SpeedPass P2 (8.70") and Pace Race 150m P3 (16.50")) to be able to enter the ranking list for a specific test. And results are only valid for a period of two years (730 days). Riders have to go on competing to keep their position in the ranking list.
The combination in Four Gait and Five Gait combines the ranking in two or three different tests. The Four Gait combination is based upon the best of Tölt T1 or Tölt T2 plus Four Gait V1 (divided by 2). The Five Gait Combination is bases upon the best of Tölt T1 or Tölt T2 plus Five Gait F1 plus the best of Pace Race 250m P1, SpeedPass 100m P2 or Pace Race 150m P3 or Pace Test PP1 (divided by 3).
Individual results of riders and horses
Apart from the various ranking lists, a historical overview of results of any individual rider is available. Starting 2007, the overview will include the name of the horse as well (when provided by the organiser of a WorldRanking event; for horses registered in WorldFengur). Per horse, the complete pedigree and marks received at WorldRanking events are available.
