This jockey just gave me some very dubious post-race advice with a 2yo in a 5f Maiden

'May be better over a shorter trip'.

Not sure if he's taking the mick or if it's a flaw in the game.

The horse is bred to stay 1m+, and I'm struggling to find any 4 furlong races!

Lol i got that in so4 the min distance in racing is 5f so you can't find 4f races just ignore what he says about shorter trips when racing at 5f and give it a few month

I think there are races over 4 furlongs in American Racing but my comment was only made in jest.. it's clearly an issue with the game that this comment has been made.

It occasionally happens on the Jumps game @ 2 miles but this is of course for when stretching the stamina of a flat horse.

My other bug bear is when a jockey says 'The horse struggled in this grade' completely out of context, ie. I have a Group 1 horse that I got greedy with and turned out too quickly in a Listed Race, finished down the field. The same jockey that rode him to Group 1 success stated that the horse couldn't compete in Listed company.

It would perhaps be better if the jockey's comments were improved for future versions.

But that's enough of the negatives, it's a great game.
