I haven`t checked this thread for a while, but would still appreciate if you could tell me some words or sayings I could have use for in my story/script. I know you weigh in before a race, and you weigh out after a race, right? If there is a difference, you get disqualified? Something else happens? ...

I`m sure it depends on the horse and the trainer. But some people maybe think a horse shouldn´t race more than once a month or that it should be at least two weeks between races.
I´m not sure how important that is for my story, but...

Yeah, that`s a good idea.
I found a list of race tracks listed by state.
So... Maryland, Kentucky, New York or Illinois.


How often do you think a horse can race and how long do you think it should be between two races?

Sailor Kenshin. Yeah. I thought they would live pretty near a race track, but still not live really close to a big city. A suburb maybe? So they would have to drive an hour or something to get to the track. I haven´t done much checking about race tracks so I don´t know where they are and how close t...

Good, I don´t have to change anything then. Hopefully. Would she be allowed to ride her own horse in the Kentucky Derby? But if her dad owns the horses, even if just on the papers, would it be okay for her to ride her horses everywhere then? I´m not very good with cities. obviously. I thought they w...

Sailor Kenshin. Yeah, I`ll do that. Sometimes I feel like I could use a guide of all the different races,Derby, oakes, stakes... I sure have things too look up. I`m not sure how much money she needs. I haven´t really thought of that. I want it to be a big race in the end so that she can prove to eve...

Sailor Kenshin. It`s going to be an American girl. But you are partly right, I guess. :) pfrsue. I have a lot of ideas. Most of them takes place in the USA, so I just have to try.

Bast. I have sent stories to publishing houses before. Then I´m not afraid of someone taking something from my story. I realise it´s a good thing to have people read what you have written, but at the same time I have no control when someone I have no idea who it is read something I have written. I´m...

Thank you Bill. I took a quick look. Will take a closer look at the site when I have more time. I`m a bit "afraid" of having people read my stories when it´s not published in any way, but I´m sure I can find good tips there. It could probably be a good idea to have someone read the script/story, but...
