15 Stakes gallopers- One of those is a Steward bred.

The rest are bad. Real Bad.
It'll only cost you $555,000 to send your 'Real Bad' ones away! :shock:

I bred 49 TBs (55 total foals).. I got no stakes for the 3rd season in a row (I did get a mixer stakes - a trotter). I have yet to breed a freak LOL I'd just be happy with a few TB stakes.

15 - Allowance (~31%)
10 - Productive (~20%)
4 - Solid (~8%)
20 - Claimer (~41%)

I really need to reassess my mares...

Stakes: 2-5.71%
Allowance: 10-28.57%
Productive: 6-17.14%
Solid: 6-17.14%
Claimer: 9-25.71%
Different Career: 1-2.86%
Unknown: 1-2.86%

Total: 35-100.00%

Mediocrity here we come. 32 of the 35 are TR, 18 are colts. Translation, 18 future geldings and 33 future AJ residents. With some luck, the two stakes fillies may actually be better than formidable when they retire. Don't expect they will be much on the track.
Yeah, yeah, I know, they are turf routers that will need to mature so they will improve. Unfortunately the only pigs I know of that fly were shot from catapults and trebuchets.

Into the Darkness, Once a freak, now a blue hen. About as useful in the shed as on the track apparently...

My results seem to be reflective of another pattern that has taken place the last season or three. :lol:

Out of 59 gallops:
0 freaks 0%
4 stakes 6.7%
8 allowances 13.5%
19 productives 32.2%
13 solids 22.0%
15 claimers 25.4%
0 different careers 0%(yay?)

I got my first stakes thoroughbred...and my second? I would say that's pretty good although the ones I hoped for the best from didn't come through(looking at my Allonsy and Gladiator foals). 2 stakes appys too which I can live with. Could've been better, could've been worse, overall not super unhappy.
yeah

Based on the gallop allowance% and stakes%, my new dirt miler stallion Army Mule looks to be one of the top dirt miler stallions.

Based on the gallop allowance% and stakes% and freak%, my turf sprinter stallion See You Monday is one of the top turf sprinter stallion. Based on the sage advice of Eric Nalbone and 100% support by Pete Vella (link), his stud fee will be increasing this year. His stud fee started out at $86K this year and has been raised twice because of strong demand for his services. His current stud fee is $106K. Rest assured, he will continue to be made publicly available. Of course, if Eric and Pete are wrong, his stud fee will be lowered.

👏 I think this is great. He's more than shown that he's worth the price. Now we just need Lord Black to go up ten or twenty grand and we'll be nicely balanced, at long last.

For the first time since I can remember I did not get a single stakes gallop. I'm trying to remain positive since I mostly breed routers, so maybe they will improve. Or I just suck a breeding and all the mares under 12 will be for lease this year so somehow they can make me money.

Well...I guess I’m finally ready to share. I was SUPER crushed that I didn’t get a single freak this year, not sure why it effected me more than last year (maybe the countless hours of research I did for most of my mares last year? 😭) but anyway, my numbers actually did improve which makes me happy now, not so much during Festivus...

After the / is last year’s %

OVERALL (328/382) hehehehe that’s funny!

Super happy with my gallops this year, because I bred my first FREAK! 😀 So amazed because I didn’t expect it, especially for a fairly new stable like mine, only four and a half SIM years in. (Even older stables with super nice mares don’t always get them!)

Also bred more stakes this year and I have a nice bunch of allowances to get on with :)
