Post High Bar Horse
Have a 2yo with a lovely potential bar to progress into. However, he’s literally terrible? I know this happens in previous games and also in real life... but what are the processes to try and eek improvements? I’ve given him a wind op and tried the pacifiers to no avail. He just stops at the finish,

His bar is so decent I’d be tempted to send him off to stud, but gelding might turn him inside out?

I’d stick pictures up, but no clue how to.

Morning pal, this can happen a lot depending on how many horses you breed....this horse might not be a good 2yo? Are you playing combined schedule ? It may grow to be a good NH horse or even a good older flat horse.
This game is about longevity so even if he’s poor in game might be a good ck horse and l would keep him until you can breed and he will hopefully pass that potential to his offspring :lol:

i have found that a horse with a great potential rating must also have high ratings in fitness, speed, acceleration and start to be really good. If they have some stamina and battle, it's the icing on the cake. Any colt that can't pass the inspection goes straight to auction, and any filly who is not at least close goes as well. Cull hard and you will see an immediate improvement in your colts.

These are the basics.

Take a snapshot of you screen. Depending whether you are in windows or full screen mode, try "Alt PrtScn" or "Ctrl PrtScn"

This copy image to clipboard.

Now open Paint, comes free with windows. Paste image into Paint and save image. I usually save file as a ".png" file.

Open an account with an image hosting company. I use imgur.

Upload a picture and look for something that says something like this "BBCode for forums"

You may have to click on the uploaded image to get to the BBcode, depends on what hosting company you use.

The code will look something like this "<img>my picture/<img>"

Copy and paste the code onto the forum.

Thank you Tam King

Here he is. Thoughts? Big disappointment, stuck him in stud to see if his potential ability would rub off on his kiddos.

The best bars to get the best horses - Potential/Cruising Burst/Extra Speed Rating/Speed/Acceleration/Finish Application/Battling Qualities

High cruising is usually found in long distance horses and extra speed in sprinters.

Thanks Sirius. He does seem low on the majority of them bar his potential.

Hadn't played SO7 much and have gotten back into it now, so just remembering the general gameplay! Though i had a monster there, hence the name i gave him.......disappointing haha. Plenty of new ones, including Churchill!
