Rival Stars Horse Racing: Breeding Guide – How to breed the best racehorses

Rival Stars Horse Racing puts you in charge of a horse stable (with the Horses In The Back, we suppose… hey, stop groaning) where you raise and train racehorses, send them out and race them, and then breed them to improve the pedigree throughout generations.

All you need is a stud and a mare, and some encouragement for your horses. Various other items such as horse tack and grain are required, as well. Read on for some breeding tips for Rival Stars Horse Racing!

Anytime that you have a suitable mare, you can breed it with a stud. It doesn’t have to be your stud, of course. Random ones will show up at timed intervals; if you don’t like one that shows up, wait until a new one appears, and then use it.

When looking for the right stud, one of the big things to look for is what type of track surface the horse prefers. This has an influence on what surface your new horse will likely prefer; usually your horse will prefer what its parents prefer.

Look through its pedigree also; even if the stud prefers one track surface, its parents’ or even grandparents’ preferences serve as a “recessive” gene, of sorts, and can often pop up in your new horse.

The same thing is true for the pack preference. Your horse either prefers the back of the pack, the front, or the middle; that’s where its sprint energy will recharge. The mare and stud’s immediate preferences will be the “dominant” gene, of sorts.

Other parents in the pedigrees of the mare and stud will likely have varying practices, though. These background preferences still have a chance to show up in your new horse. Your best chance at picking a specific trait, though, is to have both parents have the same trait, both for pack preference and for track surface.

Most important is the horse tier; the higher the horse tier, the higher the racing potential. To increase your chances of getting a higher-tier horse as well as your maximum horse tier, upgrade the breeding stalls.

Higher-tier horses have a higher maximum training level ceiling for all three training forms (sprint energy, speed, and acceleration), and thus a higher experience level ceiling, since they have to be leveled up in order to train.

Of course, you can breed more horses at a time by adding more breeding stalls. You’re going to need a place to put your horses, too. Add more horse stalls to your stable so that you can put your horses into them. The more stalls you have, the more horses you can have and breed.

Eventually you’re going to run out of room for your horses, and you’ll need to make some room. Kill two birds with one stone by selling your horses – good way to get more silver as well.

Before you do that, though, check the daily quests. New quests pop up every day, and many of them involve selling a horse with a specific trait; often you’ll get bigger rewards for getting rid of a horse in a daily quest than for just selling it straight out of your stalls. This is especially true for lower-tier horses.
