TCR Senior 5-Star Grading
4-year-old and over stallions, mares, and geldings that are awarded a TCR 5-Star grading at a TCR grading will hold a TCR Senior 5-Star grading. A Senior TCR 5-Star grading is a permanent TCR grading.​​ However, where a 4-year-old or over stallion, mare or gelding does not achieve a TCR 5-Star grading at a TCR grading, it can be presented again at a future TCR 5-Star grading.
TCR Junior 5-Star Grading
1, 2 and 3-year-old colts, fillies, and geldings that are awarded a TCR 5-Star grading at a TCR grading will hold a TCR Junior 5-Star grading. A Junior TCR 5-Star grading is a temporary TCR grading. Where a 1-year-old colt, filly, or gelding is awarded a TCR 5-Star grading, the grading is only applicable during the time it is a 1-year-old. Where a 2-year-old colt, filly, or gelding is awarded a TCR 5-Star grading, the grading is only applicable during the time it is a 2-year-old. Where a 3-year-old colt, filly, or gelding is awarded a TCR 5-Star grading, the grading is only applicable during the time it is a 3-year-old.
