Getting GP above the market

I'm curious about the efficient way to go about getting the GP increase.

Some of my horses are at the edge of the available market for stallions, so breeding up isn't always an option. I attempted to do a few generations (I usually breed twins), but it's like watching paint dry the way I do it. Is there a combo of BM and a method to BLUP more efficiently? Like an Achille's Heel and top 3 skills?

Thank you

I would say the probably the biggest time saver with blupping is having fillers -- ideally, horses of your own you can chuck in comps and then a friend or two to close comps for you. This is a big part of Prix teams moving quickly. BMIs like Heels can help, but that can be a big resource drain, if you don't have a consistent supply.

It's typically really, really hard for one person to move at the same speed teams do -- 20 bluppers who have consistent fills can move GP extremely fast, especially Prix teams. If you're not talking about a Prix breed, I'd say you'd have a much better chance at keeping up pace. default smiley :)

Oh, I'll also add -- having 1 click autos for training, rides, and comps, as well as the switch EC perk can easily shave minutes off your BLUP time!

Back-breeding (breeding a foal to the parent with the higher GP) is faster than sib breeding since you only have to blup one at a time.

A Heel does let you get more done in the horse's day, but blupping fast still comes down to your own speed, even if you choose to just blup to 60 instead of 100.

Thank you for the advice. I see where I've made it harder for myself. I'm not trying to be competitive for GP, just have somewhere to go when I've hit the publicly available limit.
