44c or 40c tires for upcoming gravel race

Hi everyone, I'll be partaking in a gravel race in Colorado and I wanted to ask about tire size. I am currently riding on 700x44c tires and have been thinking of going to a 40c for more speed. Many people have been saying that their recommended tire size for this race is 38c. However, Im not sure if I want to go that small. I have ridden all tire sizes before but never raced. The race is SBT gravel and I'm not sure if I should fork out the money for a brand new set of rubber or not.
