Hey everyone, my name is Chris and I've been playing SO6 for a few weeks now thanks to a friend picking up the game and getting me interested. Been lurking on here for a while now to pick up tips and also watching Sabella's YouTube series so thanks to all so far!

I've always had a soft spot for the Kentucky Derby thanks to reading The Race (great book from '73) and watching Secretariat, so I set myself a goal of winning the Triple Crown with a horse I bred myself. It's taken a few saves and tries but tonight I managed to secure the wins with a horse that didn't even have full potential (something I assumed I would require):

Usually I wouldn't put a horse with less than 90 potential into the breeding barn, but since this one just won the Triple Crown I was thinking it might be wise to breed Miss Swan at the end of this season. Should I race her as a four year old, retire to the barn now, or is it even worth breeding her at all?

congrats and welcome!

well if it was me.....I'd want to see just what she could win from here. she'll be hard to beat in anything til she is 6 at least.
but I can understand breeding with her now to find an even better horse.
good luck :-)
