Fantastic horse mate but not sure if its a monster, I had a 4yo retire to stud with 16 G1 and think if l would of raced till 8 would of easily done 30 G1 but just a question mate why race him for so long. I might be very wrong but l usually retire from barn at 10yo due to stats usually dropping and offspring starts becoming lower quality so as you see your horses form has started dipping now so you might not get anything from her. As l say l might be wrong but l have never raced anyone over 5

Current form doesn't affect breeding does it? It shouldn't anyway. The genes don't change.

In SO Pro, this was the case, but age doesn't matter any more. Genes are Genes.

 .....
i actually find from exporting horses at different ages and racing them against each other in the race creator that the horses seem to be at their best at age 6
so i have been running them perhaps a year too long as i always like to give them a final run in dubai world cup at age 7
if they win then i think hey why not race it till it finishes out of the top 3
