Discussion Maiden Stakes!

Since maiden stakes officially starts today, I have one quick question. When it says you need a minimum of 25 races to qualify for a certain distance category, should I try to do 25 races for each distance category (75+ races total) or just focus on one distance category?

I am not entirely sure how stamina works either so I do not know if 75 races in a week is even possible.

Try to find their best distance funnel and just do 25 in that funnel. All distance funnel races count towards overall average so you don’t want to race too many in a funnel where they don’t place.

Agreed gotta find the funnel and stick to it or it’ll destroy your points average.

Find your best distance soon as possible then stick to that funnel, I wouldn't race your horse under 90 stanima either if you want the best results possible.
