Post Before you sell that horse, tip for beginners
Howdy
I'm very much new to this game so i guess experienced players already know this.....
I have a horse that i bought at auction that i just couldnt get any decent finishes in C2 handicaps, even though the stats suggested it should be doing better.
I had worked him up through the C5, C4, C3 races with good results but that looked like his limit.
So i was about to auction him but decided to run him in a C1 listed race.
Bingo, he finished 2nd!
Seems the handicapper had it in for him. :evil:

So before you sell that horse let him have a go in a listed race, it might surprise. :o

Cheers

I've had horses that couldn't win a G3 to save their lives, yet flourished when ran at G1 level. It's always been worth testing them a bit more than I'd have first guess.
