Are you a big fan of horse racing events and all that surrounds it? Maybe missing some thrill in your life? Do you like to compete? Then look no further!
Jump into the DeRace metaverse and experience all that the horse racing industry can offer fist-hand in our virtual world.

You can race your horses in the hippodromes, breed, trade and even rent them, all for $DERC tokens!
First things first!
DeRace horses contain a set of various visual and hidden parameters that determine their performance on the track. Performance parameters: speed, stamina, conditioning, reaction time. Horses also have breeding and racing cool down periods.

The parameters are also visible on our website: https://www.derace.com/horses

To play in DeRace metaverse you’ll need an NFT horse which you can purchase on:

Racing
To participate in races go to the “Race” section on www.derace.com and join any available race.

You can choose races according to the hippodrome, race track length, surface, entry fee and other requirements.
To race follow these simple steps:
- Choose any available race and press “Register for race”
- Select a horse for the race
- Pay the entry fee
- The race is run, the winners are announced and $DERC rewards are automatically distributed to the winners’ wallets
- After the race the horse racing cool-down begins
DeRace NFT horses perform differently in various hippodromes: some horses are faster on dirt, some on turf and some on synthetic surfaces.

Each horse will have at least one “favorite” surface on which it will have a better chance to perform well than on others. Your job as a horse owner is to discover that track by racing your horse.

See you in the hippodrome!
Breeding
To breed a new horse you will need a Liquid Love NFT, $DERC to cover the breeding fee and 2 horses: a mare and a stallion, both with breeding cool-down equal to 0.

You can either own both horses yourself or use the rent-for-breeding service.
How to breed?
- Go to your “Inventory”
- Select a horse that you want to breed
- Select “Breed” icon
- Select a second horse for breeding
- Click “Confirm”
Once breeding is initiated, both NFT horses are sent to the Breeding Smart Contract where all the magic happens.
After breeding ends, parent horses and the newly bred NFT horse return to the corresponding wallets and are ready for racing.
Breeding usually takes up to 10 minutes and after it ends the horse breeding cool-down will start. Each horse has a different cool-down time which is a hidden property. It can vary between 2 weeks to 2 months.
Renting
DeRace NFT horse owners will be able to not only breed their horses but also rent them for breeding to other players.

How to rent a horse for breeding?
- Go to “NFT Horses” section
- Filter “Open for breeding”
- Select a horse
- Press on “Heart” icon
- Select the horse for breeding
- Press “Confirm”

How to place your horse for renting?
- Go to your “Inventory”
- Select a horse that you want to send to “Breeding Market”
- Select “Renting” icon
- Type in the renting fee
- Click “Confirm”
Once you decide to put your horse for rent-to-breed and choose the breeding fee, your NFT horse will interact with the Breeding Smart Contract and leave your inventory.

During this time you won’t be able to race your horse unless you decide to cancel the rental.
Common questions about breeding
Generations
Breeding 2 Generation 0 NFT horses will always create a Generation 1 horse.
Breeds
Breeding 2 different breed horses will always generate a Mixed breed foal. Only breeding the horses of the same breed will generate a pure-breed foal.

For example: 2 Appaloosa parents will have an Appaloosa foal. An Appaloosa and a Thoroughbred parents will have a Mixed breed foal.
Breeding fee
Breeding Smart Contract where the fee will increase marginally with each new horse minted to protect the ecosystem from overbreeding.
Exclusive right to breed
Generation 0 horse owners will have an exclusive right to breed for approximately 2 months. Generation 1 breeding will be introduced afterwards.
Love Potion
Love Potion is an NFT required for the breeding process. It can be acquired through: single sided staking, LP staking, Love Races, giveaways, purchased from other players & more.
