Experience:
Licensed trainer for over 30 yrs. Have had lots of winners in all different types of races - from bottom claimers to top quality stakes winners. My best money winner was Aristocratic Cross (multiple stakes winner). My best claiming horse was Navajo Family, winner of 12 races in one year. I still enjoy racing a modest stable of horses each year.
Question Can only thoroughbreds run in races and why did people not want a filly to run in the Belmont stakes. Do only males have the right to runin certain races?
Answer hi well no any breed horse can run in races such as paint horses mules quarter horses all run in races out west. fillies are not usually ruin against the males. it is a sex thing. fillies are usually not as strong as the males so they run fillies against fillies. if the race is for colts an geldings then only males can run in that type of condition race. fillies do run against the males in rich money races, but not too many times hope that helps you thanks ED HESS
