im finding that as the horse improves in each stat -(gate speed ect: )that it takes more traing hrs per horse. some of my horses are at 5-7 hrs. each to get rises. example.
supreme is an acceptable 40 over all rating;
gate speed is at average
acceleration is at moderate
muscle tone is at moderate
stamina is at average
hart is at adequate
it takes at least 6 hrs to get any rises in her stats now and some weeks she dont rise , but my horses with lower stats...

What does that mean exactly Pony. The higher the horses stats, the higher the raises will be? The more hours the higher the stats will be. Mine are at 4 hours. Would they raise higher if I raised the hours to say, 6 each?

If you look in the help section it says that Gate Speed is not only responsible for breaking speed but also for your horses manoueverability. As such, I've been trying to up my long distance horses gate speed as well as acceleration.

I reasoned that for my long distance horses, the Gate speed would not be as vital as the Acceleration would be. So Acceleration is what I would really like to raise on them.

I remember there being a debate as to train in sprints, or starting gate for acceleration. Most liked sprints as there are fewer negative pops. But if you need gate it takes alot longer.

My long distance horses still seem pretty slow to me. I have been looking up the record holders for long distance races and am surprised to see that they have very high ratings on sprints in their training experience. Could that mean those trainers are trainng them as sprinters as 2yos then switching them to long distance runners as 3yos now that they have their Acceleration up higher than normal Long Distance horses would have?

Also how much do you put stock in record holders...

Yup, for increasing acceleration in my distance horses I stick with Beach Gallops. It doesn't train it up as fast as short sprints or starting stalls, but it has no detrimental effects and usually has positive effects for distance runners ie increased stride, pops in muscle tone, stamina or heart.

Beach Gallops also gives increases in acceleration as well as stride.

If I have a distance horse I don't worry so much about acceleration. If I have a sprinter, they claim shorter stride is better. So with starting stalls the only detriment is heart.
