John, I would not put too much meaning into the "labels" on the horses. Having a "stakes" comment can mean your horse can be a low level stakes, a mid level stakes or a high level stakes. When so many others also have the same going on it can be a real crap shoot as to who might win any specific stakes race.
I have found that the majority of my stakes horses struggle against other stakes horses or Freaks in the higher levels - sometimes even in the listed stakes. They have to prove that they are ready to go against stronger competition with either an elite SF or by winning with little effort before I'll chance them. Your mileage may differ, as always.

Yeah - I think my horses look a lot better on paper than on the track... think someone turned the volume down in the barn! They don't seem to be handling the break very well...

Re: Stks/pk/brave/career/like mud
Stakes races for mudders are hard to find. But I wanted to say don't dismiss a filly/mare as a possible broodmare just because they say "longer career".John Smith wrote: ↑5 months ago
Anyway, brought her back this year because of career comment. Losing an alw race after a series of stakes losses seems too finicky to be racing to me.
Not to mention if i have to keep my mudder in one location races arent easy to find.
The breeding shed and longer career comments are only "hints" about how a horse may do, they're not foregone conclusions.
