Post When to retire to stud?
Hi guys im new to this forum and new to the starters orders game in general.

I have to say im now firmly hooked though!

Ive played through couple of seasons and have a stallion who has won everything there is to win over 1m 4f for the past season and a half hes 140 rated beast and now about to turn six at the end of this season.

When do you guys advise sending him to stud?

Sorry if the answer is obvious but i want to make the right call.

Thanks in advance.

IMO 5yo is the peak for the vast majority, I export at 3yo and 5yo then retire to stud at the end of the 5yo season, but thats playing for the league, if your just playing the game then keep them out as long you want, although if your planning to breed with them I would advise retiring no later than 6 to get the best out of them.

retire to game pool so you can transfer between games and make copies of the same horse
