from what ive seen the horses run the same only a lot quicker

Ran a couple of your horses you uploaded PJ against what I have so far. I'm somewhat encouraged.

I mouse click out of scrolling field screen then hit escape. The result of race shows after a few yards of the race has been run. This is how I always trial. Ascot Good

pj gonna run some trials over the next few days on the same settings as yours will let u know how we stack up against each other

OMG that's me out of the league then - I'm struggling to get 30fps.

You misunderstood. The guy who actually creates the league race should have 60fps not those who view the races.

for once I'm glad I misunderstood.

lol

Just got back into trialing after about 4 or 5 weeks off and notice the CK times are over a second slower than before at most distances
guess you have to go with consistency not times as the times are all over the shop
there can be as much as 3 secs difference in trial times which makes trialing more difficult than ever IMO
The Graphics are brilliant but for trialing purposes are a real pain as trials now take alot longer to go through now
from what i have seen on here the faster machine you have the faster ck times you get
for me trialing has become more tedious than ever

I loved trailing on SO 5, but it is harder at this moment because mark is still shaping the game so the times will change but it will make the start of the league interesting because no one will know who's got the best horses. I'm enjoying my jumpers because I've got plenty of front runners( I've dragged them along with my breeding) so my horses blast of and see's who can last the longest.

Good thing that's how I've always selected my league horses. Keep a spreadsheet listing each distance and keep the top 5 most consistent performers. Using a points system I widdle my large group down with a first series of trials to the top performers for each distance and then run 6 trials for the finals at each distance. I add up the points in these races - 5 first/4 second/3 third/2 fourth/ 1 fifth. After these races the horses that hit the CK afterwards run against the best I have.

The big pain is selecting these horses every time from the large pool I have collected. I have suggested before the best thing to have IMO is an option to save race field on the race build screen. The current option to save a group in the horse files screen does not cut it because you can't save a horse to multiple groups. Unless this has changed because I haven't trialed in a while.

Agree with you there i dont even use the filter or save system pointless have one horse in one group it totally defeats the purpose
we need folder were we can physically put horses into like you would on desktop with ability to name folder

eg jumpers but the ability to have one horse in as many folders as you want

Any thoughts from you guys on the head lads comment when you export? I go to the training screen and hover over the far right button which says "Click to view more training data for this horse". Hover over it repeatedly and if your horse is race fit it will either say "The horse is fit and ready to race" or "The horse is raring to go!". I always make sure it says raring to go when I export because that sounds better. Not sure at all if it makes any difference. Anyone out there know if it does?

never knew this myself

Move your pointer over the far right box of each horse repeatedly and the head lad comment will switch back and forth between the two comments.

Sorry got confused i thought you meant head lad comments in CK

Yes on training screen i always wait til horses is raring to go before exporting
usually takes 25 - 28 days after last race
