The 2023 All American Quarter Horse Congress is arguably one of the biggest events of the year, and every breeder looks forward to seeing the best of the best showcased in the longe line. Let's explore the compiled data1 to unveil the top ten sires influencing the longe line yearlings this year in both western and english categories.
In this article, we aim shed a light on the best producing sires, dams, and damsires for each western and longe line category in the longe line. This is a series of classes that we look forward to each year at the Congress and we have a chance to see what some of the up-and-coming sires are producing, and see how consistently some of the more established sires are producing. It's no surprise that a few of the heavy hitters appear in their respective disciplines, such as Batt Man, Machine Made, Allocate Your Assets, What Matters Most, When In Chrome, and Good Better Best.
Let's have a look at who topped the charts by earnings, championships, reserve championships, and bronze championships, below:

Our favourite thing about the Longe Line classes each year is that both categories often feature some of the best up-and-coming sires, and this year was no different. With stallions like Makin Me Willy Wild, Hay Goodlookn, Nothin But Nett, and The Best Principles topping the carts among greats like Batt Man, The Lopin Machine, and Machine Made – the Western Longe Line was a great mix of established and new. The Hunter Longe Line was much the same with young sires like Easy On The Eyez, Outlaw Enterprise, Certainly A Vision making the top ten along well-established sires like Allocate Your Assets, What Matters Most, Good Better Best, When In Chrome, and Full Medal Jacket. We look forward to seeing what's next for these lovely yearlings, and of course, we also look to next year to see who cleans up in the Longe Line.
