When do geldings stallions and mares run against each other?
There are a few races that stallions and mares will run against each other. Geldings are included also but most young Thoroughbred males are not gelded while still being raced. For most stallions, their worth is not only what they win on the track but later as a stud. The Triple Crown races are an example of males against females. For the Kentucky Derby, gender has little to do with who races. They are, however, all 3 year olds. The reason few fillies have won or even raced in the Derby is because by the time a horse is 3 the stallions, by virtue of male hormones, are already stronger than the fillies. As for geldings, probably the most famous would be a horse named "John Henry". He was finally retired at the age of 11, which is almost unheard of in the Thoroughbred racing comminity.
