Awesome stats wow monsters
do you ever race them or do you just breed retire breed
El Skywalker looks like hed stay 1m2 now you will get to 1m4 yet
i have noticed my best 1m4 horses are throwing out 1m6 horses and get an odd 2 miler
so can see you producing a 1m4 horse b4 long


I do race them. Usually up to ten races as three year olds. Depending on the horse I might go for their four year old season too. But I mostly breed with them. I tend to run auction bought horses during my breeding saves. True about the 1m4f distance. Just like you can use two soft horses to produce a good ground horse you can breed two milers and get a 1m1f horse. Probably in the long term the best way to work your way to longer distances because it enables you to get there without sacrificing skill. Not sure how it relates to stamina though. Doesn't matter if it says 1m4f if the stamina isn't there to stay that distance.

That said, this is not random! So you need to look out for the horses that show a tendency to produce that kind of offspring. I have a 1m2f Colt which has everything El Skywalker X has + maxed out extra speed and potential. As I have said, not sure what will be next.

This is Kassaab Vimiero at the end of racing career Best horse i have had in the jumps game brought into my game from a old save from a earlier game that crashed and couldn't repair started his career in the Kauto Star feltham at kempton and won 24 Races from 20 but only defeats came when falling or unseating its jockey so never beaten when standing up won 12 group 1 in three seasons running in the top races won 3 King Georges and 3 welsh cups but in final season got injured for seven weeks meaning the chance of Winning 3 Cheltenham Gold Cups and 3 Bibby Punchestown Gold cup was not to be but made it back in time for its farewell swansong to win its third Welsh Gold Cup at the end of the season hoping he will produce great chasers for the future.

Post Re: Post Up Your Best!
Just thought i'd post a couple of my horses on here, as i feel i have finally got some decent animals.

The Past
Bought this gamebred at the auction. Can't believe his attributes, a FULL Battling qualities bar, hopefully this lad will be a monster in the breeding barn.

Image

The Present
Excited about this filly, she may not have all the desired attributes, but a full potential bar at 4yo is fantastic. Shes won everything on the bridle so far, would have ran in the Triumph if not for injury. And looking for her to dominate the 2 mile hurdle division.

Serious Distance adaptability have personally never seen it as high
Found a gamebred that had obviously had a full bar but only passed it onto 2 of his grandkids

Yeah.. Its always about finding the right gamebred. Unfortunately I havent found the gamebred will full distance adaptability yet. Now you can reintroduce the gamebred to the line until you have a selfbred with full bar. After you work 2 steps forward one step back so to speak. Always reintroducing the skill once it falls away. At some point you should have a CK superstar will full distance adaptability.

So this horse is a little bit of a surprise for me. Posted up a 106 rating in a maiden win (6 3/4 lengths)... but his has really subpar potential. Hmmm... I'll keep ya posted on his progression.

I've Had enough of the jumps game. Does anyone still play it because it's so poor, I use to love to play it when the game first came out but now it's gone backwards and it's so unrealistic. Have a look at this result.

Image

U know how many horses are going to get pulled up, the horses run together so u don't know who's a front runner or who's not and the horses finish closer together than a 5 furlong sprint. :roll: I've had a 4m4f race where the first ten finished with in 2L. Another thing is the horses looks worse now than when the game first came out, when they get near to the end they get very jittery but I've not seen it on the flat.

Totally agree ..... I had a horse that won the King George and the Gold Cup .... then finished down the field in a race at Aintree with jockey saying would run better against lesser opposition !!!
Still a great game ... but the jumps does need re-vamping
