 Thanks for the feedback panther. So 3 feature meetings does that mean tracks?  like I cannot have races at more than 3 tracks on the same day and the total amount of feature races cannot exceed 8 total form all the tracks? You can have racing at three different tracks on a single day, and each track can host up to eight races. I would use this sparingly though, as you might find field sizes suffer and races become easier to win if you overuse it.

						I have prepped the derby on a custom schedule with the 2000 guineas and the oaks with the 1000 guineas. Will this work?

Yes, it will work, but the game sometimes won't distinguish between a horse that might have a chance in the Derby/Oaks, and a horse that is an out-and-out miler, so you might find some quality horses being entered in the Derby/Oaks that have no realistic chance of staying the trip.

						In my combined schedule I've include the two Kentucky oaks and derby in mid may but only prepped with the BC juveniles. Will this work and will it detract from the quality of the other 3yo classics?

I'm not sure that will work, as I don't think you can have preps that are in the previous season; I think they have to be earlier in the same season. I could be wrong with that though.

						Prep a race manually through the editor or file? Through editor click on the little square next to the race, then go to te race you want to use as prep and click on it.

				  Re: Prep Races  
					
						That doesn't do anything for me? Id tried that before so thought you had to do it another way.
  I click on the prep box so in the bottom left of the screen it comes up with the prep race box and then I click on the name of the race I want in the schedule on the right or in the list of races on the left and nothing happens when I click on either?
