No. You don't compare AFPT to the parents PT. You compare the foals AFPT to the parents AFPT.

PT score has nothing to do with breeding and is no indication of whether the horse is a good breeder or not. A "good breeder" is relative and depends on the person. I'm okay with my horses AFPT being slightly lower, especially in a rank special. All rank specials are at minimum perfect foundations and have 100% breeding ability.

I don't understand still if he is a good breeder or not all this stuff is to confusing for me

AFPT has NOTHING to do with a horse's own PT. You can compare a horse's AFPT to their parents' (to see if there's an improvement), or for a foundation you could compare it to the AFPT of other foundations to see if it's better or worse.

Don't ever look at a breeder's PT to determine if it'll be a good breeder - their PT says nothing about their breeding ability (there's some correlation as you get to higher gens but even then I wouldn't look to PT to judge whether or not a horse that has passed all testing is good or not).

AFPT tells you if your horse tends to throw good show horses or not. A breeder with a higher AFPT will generally be one that has a higher breeding ability because it's throwing foals with better showing ability.

But as has been said, your stud's an RS so he's a perfect foundation with 100% breeding ability, he's guaranteed to be good.
