Also, you can go to my profile to see him if you want other info. Would it be wise to start to offer covers before 100 BLUP?

I am in my phone by the way if that makes any difference

Curlies are an interesting breed to BLUP because their skillset doesn't match any specific competitions. Looking at the top 5 curlies in the game, they do well in Western competitions, particularly cutting (stamina, dressage, speed), but they're also decent all-rounders for Classic competitions, so you could go either way with his specialty.
If you're concentrating on BLUPing, don't offer covers until you're at 100 BLUP. Most players will be looking for 100 BLUP stallions for the best genetics and skills to pass onto their foals, so it's just a waste of your stallion's energy at that point. For 100 BLUP you need to bold (max out) your top 3 skills, have 20 wins, and age to 10. Easiest way to earn wins is to keep the primary skill of your chosen competition-type low and train the 2 secondary skills. I'd probably start with something like Forest rides Speed training Dressage training If western: - Cutting comps until satisfied with wins or no more skill gains - train stamina - Western pleasure comps until satisfied with wins or no more skill gains - train trot - Mountain rides If classic - trot comps until satisfied with wins or no more skill gains - train trot - train jump - cross country comps until satisfied with wins or no more skill gains - train stamina - Mountain rides If you still need additional wins at this point, you'll just need to pick and choose what competitions you enter, and enter against horses you know you can beat.

Also, there's the Howrse - breeding forum, where you could find other advice or BLUP schedules.

Curlies are hard, because there's no competition ideally suited to their skills. He may perform best in Western Pleasure, while you may find it easiest to get wins in Trail Class.
Train him in his top three skills, do Mountain Rides until he doesn't get anymore skills from them (for Curlies, you don't need to do Forest rides), then do 25 competitions each in Western Pleasure and Barrel Racing. After this his top three skills will be bolded, and you only have to get him his 20 victories and to 10 years old. Try to board him in an EC located in a mountain, to make the mountain rides quicker to do. The order of training and riding doesn't really matter too much. You can do either first. If you're struggling to get the victories, then training him in Jumping may improve his chances of winning Trail Class. I don't personally offer covers before they're 100 BLUP, because unless they're nearly the top GP for their breed, then it's likely there are better covers on the market, and yours will be overlooked.
