I have been reading hyrim canyons help site to learn more about actually playing the game well, understand most of it and ready to start implementing. However still cant work out if it;s best to have showing stock and breeding stock separate? Like have a bunch of geldings for showing and separate mares/stallions for trying to produce good horses. Would I track the training on both showing and breeding? Just breeding? Is it still worth entering the breeding stock into shows or just use the showing stock for that?
thanks :)

Another thing, on the showing section here - https://hyrimcanyon.weebly.com/showing.html
It says 'Enter 9th or worse placers if their show dates are 2 or more weeks old.'
Does this mean if I have a horse that places say 12th all last week, do I just not show that horse at all this week? And enter them next week?

I personally show all my horses. Just note that Stallions and not CS'd mares take longer to train up after they leveled up. There's no need to track training on geldings. Tracking the training is used to match mares or stallions' strengths and weaknesses for breeding.
If your horse places 9th or worse, it's in most cases not ready to show. So you don't show it for the whole week and after you trained it on Monday, you enter it again to see how it does. If your horse places 12th, I'd give it two or maybe even three weeks of additional training before I enter it again. The exception is that sometimes horses are unlucky and get to compete against horses that are close to level up and therefore very strong.
If in doubt, go to your horses page and count it's training bars. In generall you need six times the bars for each level. So for level 2 in D you'd need 12 training bars in total in mv, int and str.

Seconding everything said above. I show all my horses, and just track studs and breeding mares. I only track up to week 15.
Just for clarification on what I think Moony's saying for showing: If the horse gets 9th/sometimes 10th place, show them after the next time they train. If a horse gets 11th or 12th place, show them after between 2-4 more training sessions. Another way of thinking about the training bars is that you need 2 bars in each trait, for each level. So for level 2, like Moony said, you'd need 4 bars in mv, 4 bars in int, and 4 bars in str, or 12 bars total. |

thanks both.
This is the horse I am referring to..

He won a handful when he was lvl 1, has 4 bars a part from 2 stats which I assume are his weaknesses? Isn't showing as lvled up recently on my reports. Not too sure why he is doing so bad recently.

Did he just go from level 1 to level 2? Cause it's like being the best T-ball player and moving on to playing older kids in Little League. Suddenly you're not the best anymore. You have to work a bit harder and train some more before you can compete at the new level. Horses here work the same way. Finish in a bunch of 1-3 places, go up a level, compete against better horses and have to work their way back up to the top.

Check his show records (at the bottom of the page). He's leveled up in SJ around the 31.3. as this is his last show result of level 1. As he's rated S in SJ he's not ready to show yet. Give him another two weeks.
As with D and CC he hadn't been shown when he was level 1, so you don't know when he'd leveled. However he's missing one bar in each trait (D: mv, int, str; CC: hrt, spd, str) so he's not ready to show in those disciplines too.
If you check his D results, you also see that he scored only 36% in his last show. To place 8th or better you need 70% or more in D. It's like in real D shows that horses get awarded % depending on how well they perform. Once he's level 3 in CC and SJ you get to see his exact results in those disciplines too. They're great to determin whether a horse is ready to show or just unlucky.
All in all I'd give him another two weeks training and see how he does after that.
