This is a difficult subject to discuss, but for the new player it is essential that they can benchmark their horse and the horses training time.

The last thing I want to encourage, are stables NOT to run their horses.

I can't state the following strongly enough.

• Horses improve with time.
• Horses training is only an indication of their ability in an actual race.
• Most races are free to enter, why not just run.
• Don't concern yourself with statistics.
• Any run, even losing one's contribute towards your bonus progress .

Horses doing the following training times have the ability to place in a race.
Obviously, if they do much better times, then there is even more potential. The times listed relate to yearling horses only.
If your horse has a low maturity percentage, again, even more potential.
Without doubt, there will be horses outside these benchmarks that will prove these numbers wrong.


• 1000 - 1.04.50
• 1200 - 1.17.00
• 1400 - 1.31.00
• 1600 - 1.43.00
• 1800 - 1.56.50
• 2000 - 2.09.50
• 2400 - 2.37.50
• 2850 - 3.07.00

The page shown above displays.
You now need to select the filters

For current yearlings, select the latest/the most recent season
(19 in the image shown)
Select "1" in the age options.

Of course selecting "2" in the age options, the tables will change/update and will show you the times for the current season (current season being season 19) for 2YO horses.

If we now drill down a bit further and zoom in on the numbers for 1200 for example. Here we see, the top number (553), the total number of training times, over 1200M done so far.

Check back tomorrow and this number may have increased. Therfore, the more numbers, the more accurate the stats. The later in the season , these numbers will be highest and stats the most accurate.

If you horse does a training time of 1.15.45 or better, then currently it is within the top 5% of all horses for the season (so far) over the 1200M distance.

It could be the best, it could be number 1, you wouldn't know that though, you just know, its top 5%. Remember this though, these 553 runs are over all 4 surfaces, and you horse may in fact be the best on a particular surface.
