Hello all, this is my first time posting on the forum. I am very new to the Starter Orders series and recently purchased Starter Orders 6. I am really enjoying the game so far.

I have a quick question to ask. How do I determine which race to enter my horses in. When should I enter them in a handicap race, a selling race, a group 1, 2, or 3 race? I had a horse that I entered into a group 3 race and he won, should I only enter him in group 3 races now, or should I enter him in other races?

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this message.

Also, is there a way to see all of the races in an entire season? I can usually see only races about a month in advance. Thanks again:-)

welcome

click on the diary tab that shows the whole years feature races just scroll down
there is no way to see every race maidens sellers handicaps etc it only does that in a 1 month block in decs

Thank you for you respond.

Can you please also answer my other question too, "How do I determine which race to enter my horses in. When should I enter them in a handicap race, a selling race, a group 1, 2, or 3 race?

Thank you sooo very much:-)

A good article answering my own question lol

its all trial and error buddy

if you have an unraced horse

start in maiden company to get a handicap mark
then try and win a few handicaps maybe a major handicap
if you horse is still winning the next level is listed or conditions races
then g3 g2 and finaly g1s

you will find your horses level quick enough

Thank you so much pjrhodes1970 for responding and for the tips. It is very helpful:-) How often should I race my 2 year olds? Say my 2 year olds are really good at the 1m, should I enter them 5f or 6f? It does not seem to be meany 1m for 2yo. Thanks:-)

mile juvenile races come later in the year

i depends on the horse really no point in racing over 5 or 6 if he is to get out paced maybe better
waiting til later in year and start at right distance
