Post Triple Crown Help!
I'm in year nine and this is my first time playing any horse racing game let alone learning anything about horse racing.


I assumed I had won the triple crown with my 3 yo Colt, but I didn't get the achievement.

I won the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and I looked for the Belmont but the only thing i could find was the Brooklyn Stakes. My jockey even said after the Preakness win that I should enter him in the Brooklyn Stakes.


Is the Brooklyn Stakes a different name for the Belmont? And if so why didn't I get the achievement since I won all 3 with the same horse in the same year?

Or did I screw up horribly and maybe ruined my chance of ever winning the triple crown with my horse Vinyl Remedy?

Ok - first off....well done winning such great races after only nine seasons!
Not many people do that! Have you made enough cash to buy your breeding barn?
Buy it - you want to breed with that colt - he will set you up with some excellent horses down the track!

Well - I play on the Australian circuit so I can't help you with that question........it should be the Belmont Stakes. Are you sure you didn't over look it?
I do know it is in there and it should be about the same date in the game as the actual race.

Re-title your post as Triple Crown Help - that way you'll target people who play the American Circuit :-)

Cheers and good luck and feel free to fire off as many questions as you need in the forums.....the forums are a little slow at the moment as we just came off an online season comp and I figure a lot of players are a little fatigued at the moment (it's quite full on). Next season starts around sept...if you get your breeding going - it's worth entering your stable - you'll learn a lot!

Awesome, Yeah i got my breeding barn in year 2. Been doing a lot of betting and have unlocked everything in my stable. All I did for a season and a half was bet haha. I bred this colt that won the Derby and Preakness and i thought I was entering him into the Belmont but I guess I didn't.


Idk thanks for the help. I guess i really messed up... coulda swore I didn't see any races in New York except for this one and its 3 weeks after the Preakness and I couldn't see the Belmont anywhere.

Please someone help.


I went back to right after i won Preakness. But I cannot find the Belmont Stakes anywhere. On any of my horses even looking at the course itself. It's not in the game.

I'm quite sure the Brooklyn Stakes are Belmont. There are mods where it is changed but you would have to start a new game.

I'm 99% certain that the Belmont is known as the "Brooklyn Stakes" in game.
