SARGA.CO – A racehorse's career is not forged overnight. It follows a structured journey—from early training to competing in prestigious races like the Indonesia Derby, and ultimately aiming for the elite title of the Triple Crown.
Here’s a breakdown of the typical career route of a racehorse:
Between ages 1 and 2, the focus is on building mental and physical foundations. Horses are taught basic discipline—how to walk, run on cue, get familiar with jockeys, and become accustomed to the racetrack environment. During this stage, groomers and trainers closely monitor body posture, eating patterns, and overall health to evaluate racing potential.
At this stage, horses begin racing over short distances (1,000–1,400 meters). These races help build speed, sharpen gate-start reactions, and strengthen mental resilience amidst a crowded field. This stage is commonly referred to as Class A/B or C/D for beginners.
Now the horse is tested over longer distances, typically 1,600 meters. This is a critical selection phase where only those with both endurance and consistent speed prove worthy of moving up to Derby-level races.
The Indonesia Derby stands as the most prestigious event for 3-year-old racehorses. It demands a perfect blend of stamina, speed, race strategy, and unwavering focus. Success here defines a horse’s reputation—and a win could open the door to racing immortality through the Triple Crown.
Horses that perform well in the Derby often continue competing in handicap races (adult class), covering medium to long distances. Some may retire early to become breeding stallions or mares, passing on their elite lineage to the next generation of champions.
Market value expected to reach US$1.73 billion by 2035
