Once you have your own horse, you can even participate in races to win unique prizes. However, you'll have to master each course if you want to fully unlock all that the ranch has to offer. We'll give you the best tips to beat the time trials!

How To Unlock Flag Races

To unlock the flag races, you'll need to progress further with the main story. This is because you'll need your own horse, as you can't rent a horse from the stable for these events.

You'll need to complete the Impa's Gift quest to get your very own horse, which will serve as your loyal flag race companion. You must be riding your horse when talking to the Hylian with a carrot barrette to initiate the races.

If you can't find your horse, place a carrot echo to summon them!

There are three courses to complete, and you'll only unlock the next one after beating the prior one's time challenge. The cost to race is ten rupees up front for each course.

So long as you complete the course in the time limit, you'll earn a reward and usually get your rupees back.

Flag Race Short Course Tips

For the first course, you'll need to run around the track that encircles the ranch. This short track should take less than 30 seconds to complete, as you'll hop over crates and rush past trees to collect all six flags.

To get the record time, you'll need to dash for the longer stretches of the track. Do not dash when turning, as it will force you to go wide and likely hit the fence!

Hop over all the crates and try to hug the inner wall of the ranch when you can to shorten your ride. If you can beat the course in under 17 seconds, you'll get a special reward!

Below are the rewards for completing the short course:

Flag Race Middle Course Tips

After completing the short course under 23 seconds, you'll unlock the middle course. This track circles around the outer ring of the ranch, allowing you to race through the edge of the forest with your horse.

There are only five flags this time, but there are many more obstacles in your way. Make sure to dash for longer, straight parts in the course, like when cutting between the trees to the east of the ranch. If you can beat the course in under 20 seconds, clearing the obstacles and triumphantly passing under the archway, you'll earn a precious collectible!

Below are the rewards for completing the middle course:

Flag Race Long Course Tips

The long course will test your control, forcing you to strategically plan your dashes to help push you through the course. Thankfully, there's also a shortcut that allows you to hop over a section of the course.

Keep an eye out for the boxes lined up in front of the tree line, as you can cut several seconds off your final time!

This track includes both of the previous tracks, interwoven to give you more of a challenge. Collecting all eight flags in order is not so hard as long as you follow the arrows on the ground.

If you can complete the course in under 40 seconds, you'll receive the unique accessory called the Charging Horn! Below are the other rewards for completing the long course:

Requirements

There's no limit to how many times you can attempt each course, so feel free to practice as much as you'd like. As long as you have the rupees to do so, that is.
