Post Season dates
Hi

Can anybody confirm the dates of both the flat and jumps seasons in the game?

I’m playing a combined flat and jump game and have horses which race in both formats, the dates overlap so if anybody can help would be appreciated

Also I’m starting playing as the jockey a bit more and using the new jump mechanism where the arrows or pale blue circle can appear when approaching a fence, is there any way you can stop either ploughing into the fence or having a slow jump when these appear? I thought for the circle you push up on the reigns but that never seems to work unless I’m timing the push wrong? As for the arrows nothing seems to work

Thanks in advance

Sorry, what is the breed corruption issue you mention?
I’m just about to breed my first horse, potentially, and it’s outside those dates, is that ok?

Thanks

The game loses track of who the real sire & dam were. You get offspring of say two mares instead of the hoses you picked. So parents will be two semi-random members of the breeding barn. I've learned the hard way to wait for that April season roll over to breed in game.
