Re: Testing foals
Hello!! What you wanna do it put them in a barn at 95% yellow corn and age them to 5 then test them at level 10 local show in their specific event! (going of Frosts guide which has been SO helpful) I'm not the best person to help out with endurance but I can sure try! What I aim for in endurance is 40+ speed, 30+ strength, and 60+ stamina! This is the key really for endurance, or 50 speed, 30+ strength and 50-60+ stamina! I really only work on racing, sprint, barrels, poles, reining and cutting so sorry if that wasn't much help! I do have studs that are proven endurance studs I am willing to stud out!

No your good any little bit of advice helps I just started doing frosts method and so far so good but aside from that I'd love to see what studs you have as I'm pretty limited on proven studs rnBlackRiver_Competing wrote: ↑Thu Apr 10, 2025 3:03 amHello!!

Re: Testing foals
Also, would you say when testing them it's a good idea to average out their scores and keep them based off that number or just keep the ones who occasionally score good

Re: Testing foals
When ur testing them I usually go based off their fastest UT time but I also watch their averages
