Foals born with higher inborn skills are quicker and easier to train to 100 BLUP, and essential if you are aiming for elite status.

These are skills that the horse already has from birth. Not all foals necessarily have them. They depend on the foal's parents, their genetic potential and the average BLUP of its parents. So, a foal may be born with 10% stamina for example.

A foal cannot be born with negative skills. If the parents's average BLUP is less than 0 then the foal will not have any inborn skills.

These inborn skills are fixed at birth. They are added to the genetic potential.

Note that the inborn skills are built into the skills, so a skill may exceed the value indicated in the genetic potential. It is this actual value that will count for the minimum level in competitions.

HOW TO CALCULATE INBORN SKILLS

If both parents are 100 blup, add their gp's together and multiply that by .10 that will be the approx IBS of the foal without tears.
