Post Legends Breeding Update
just spent a few seasons in Joes saved game and bred a few gens
of the legends and some of the horses that were already in the barn.

I have to say not too impressed with how they breed they mainly are very averaged only a very few actually
get Frankels or Black Caviars extended bars most have very low reached potential and were unusable for the ck.

i had 1 nice sprinter who i exported to ck and he was no where
near my best sprinters a distance i have spent no time on they are Milers who did not reach mile stamina
i also got 3 nice milers out of which only 1 really performed well in the ck won a few trials but was not markably better than
anything i have bred a couple of trials pictured below.

Have not posted this to fuel another row so please do not post in this thread if you have nothing constructive to say.

i just wanted to stress that the legends (Breeding) on average are no better then what you breed yourself obviously its a huge
shortcut

None of this really matters as any horse with legends in breeding will be detected in any future leagues anyway

Im not surprised PJ, as I said in the other thread, only really Frankel and Black Caviar even have full potential bars, the only thing the legends have more than a normal horse is constitution which doesnt count for anything in the CK, and the other thing some of them have a high but still normal amount of is battling qualities, which again is useless in the CK.

As you say, its a shortcut to breed a decent standard of horse, thats all it is, you can beat Frankel after a couple seasons in the game starting from nothing so the legends are not some unattainable freak level.

Im guessing the reason they are not breeding well is because they are all inbred to Frankel, so the line will not go very far at all before it hits a brick wall without fresh blood.

Ghostzapper just lost the plot a bit thinking I was trying to breed some super horses to cheat in the league, I have zero interest in the league and you only need to look at those horses to know that. I unlocked the legends months ago yet those horses only have 2/3/4 generations of breeding, most of which was done quickly in recent days. The US horses were from a game I was actually playing a while ago to enjoy the game, not breeding for league horses.
