Just a little update for you to give some hope that breeding isnt really complicated once you get into the swing of it. I retired Authority Code to the breeding barn, he hasnt thrown anything worth keeping at this stage but will keep trying in the hope of getting something out of him.
But I have been breeding with the current top sire by Group winners he is producing. Henry Holmes has sired 99 G1s 28 G2s 34 G3s. He is a beast of a Sire and I have managed to get a good one out of him by a mare who won 2 G1s of her own.
His Name is Kadlubek, He is now 4 but had an amazing 3yo season. He won the Guineas and St James Palace and Backed up a win against the older horses in the Queen Elizabeth II.
Im torn between whether to race him on in his 4yo season or send him straight to the barn, as my sires arent that special there yet.
I also have a 3yo who had an okay 2yo season.. He is a sprinter for the moment, He won the G1 Middle Park, out of another Game sire whose starting to get some G1 winning offpring. 11 total G1 wins.
Im in my 10th season in this game now, I play League mode, i havent joined the league yet, something that I have been planning to do, I just find the league mode lessens the expectations of a good horse by stats because there are less parameters to go by and im now at the stage that anything with less than 80% potential Im discarding or send to the breeding barn if its a mare to see if I can improve its stats.
