There is a blue (A) button next to where you enter the amount, press that after you've entered the amount, I usually press it twice and it'll say 'horse entered in auction'

I dont want to enter it in a auction. If it wins a claim or selling race i wanted it to have a reserve. Or is this not possible?

Thanks.

if it wins a claimer or seller the reserve is £4000 for sellers (i think) and the claimer win reserve is based on what weight you give your horse to carry when you declare it to run.

In the claimers you decide what weight they will carry by adjusting the weight in top right corner of entry screen, each pound of weight adds a grand to the claim tag. In sellers there is no reserve, just as in real life.

Yes, but if it wins a seller/claimer you can put a reserve that nobody will bid for on the horse i.e. £/$999999999999 then press the auction button, no-one will buy the horse and you won't have to bid for it. Do this before it runs, I tend to do it after it has run too, just in case and you won't lose your horse.

You mean on the day that it is racing in a seller/claimer?

Yes, before it races. Like I said I also do it after it's raced too.
