After opening the Q2 series with the stallions leading Western competition, the focus now shifts to the maternal side of the pedigree. Dam standings often develop differently from sire rankings because most mares are represented by a much smaller group of offspring. As a result, one major earner can have an immediate effect on total earnings, average earnings, and overall position.
This second Q2 article presents two separate standings:
- Top 25 Western Pleasure Dams
- Top 25 Western All-Around Dams
Each leaderboard is calculated independently within its respective category using progeny earnings, number of money-earners, and average earnings per performer.
Western Pleasure Dams: Tight Margins at the Top
Western Pleasure rewards balance, cadence, consistency, and a willing way of going. The dam standings trace those results back to the mares behind the horses earning within the discipline.
Because many dams are represented by only one or two money-earners, individual performances carry considerable statistical weight. A mare may rise through one highly productive offspring, while another builds her position through several contributors.

Missy Machine leads the Q2 Western Pleasure dam standings with $20,517 in progeny earnings from two money-earners, averaging $10,258 per earner. She holds a $3,017 advantage over second-ranked Suddens Leadin Lady, whose single money-earner has earned $17,500.
Why So Lazy follows closely in third with $17,025 from one money-earner, placing her only $475 behind second place. The leading three show how quickly a dam can move through the standings when a small number of offspring account for a large share of her earnings.
Those results reflect Western Pleasure earnings only. The following table presents a separate Western All-Around standing, where a broader range of recorded earnings creates a markedly different order.
Western All-Around Dams: One Mare Breaks Away
The Western All-Around standings recognize dams whose offspring have recorded earnings across the broader Western category. With additional events included, some mares are represented by a wider competitive record than their Western Pleasure totals alone would suggest.
The same statistical measures remain important: total earnings establish rank, money-earner count shows the size of the performer group, and average earnings indicate how strongly each individual offspring has contributed.

KM Hot Number holds a commanding lead in the Q2 Western All-Around standings with $114,103 in progeny earnings from three money-earners, averaging $38,034 per earner.
Her total places her $93,586 ahead of second-ranked Missy Machine, who has $20,517 from two money-earners. Suddens Leadin Lady ranks third with $17,644 from two money-earners, averaging $8,822. The size of KM Hot Number’s advantage makes her one of the most statistically dominant leaders across the current Q2 performance standings.
What the Western Dam Standings Reveal
The Western Pleasure leaders remain closely grouped in Western All-Around, but each moves down one position as KM Hot Number rises to the top. The pattern preserves much of the original order while introducing a new leader in the broader category.
It also reflects how differently dam records can develop. Some mares are represented by one standout performer, while others build their totals through several money-earners. With smaller produce records, one additional result can quickly affect earnings, averages, and placement.
