  1. Heritability (diagonal, (SE)), genetic correlation (upper triangle, (SE)) residual correlation (lower triangle, (SE)), LnE-H: logarithm of earnings per finished race for harness racing, Q: qualification; (*) fixed correlations: residual correlations between Q and LnE-H were fixed to 0.50 at 2 years and closed to residual correlations between LnE-H 2 years and LnE-H 3, 4 and ≥ 5 years for the others.
