I think it's very iffy.

In my last jumps cycle I bred a horse called Mixsterthetrickster and in 10 trials he was 2711x74111 which is very good but I've bred with him this week and his horses looked very average in game but I've not trailed them yet.

When I ran my last lot of trails I had a horse called Bollin Star who ran 0f00001022, that's very strange to be awful the first 6 races but be good the last 4.

I have noticed that a horse can go 4 or 5 trials and not make any impression then come with a strong run win 3 of the next 5 and place in the other 2

i have seen this alot its more concerning that if you restart your game the same trials can run very differently how do you know where you stand

i now run 5 trials and restart to give every horse a chance some shine in 1st 5 and do nothing in 2nd 5 and also the other way round

Trialing has never been easy

My other concern is i have not got close to my PB for ages i have concentrated on one distance 1m and starting to think there is no
improvement left in the milers

The last time i hit my Mile PB was a sprinter running handy and just about stayed on to win

The hardest part will be doing the final trials and making sure u best horse wins, u going to have to run more trails and different ways. It could come down to luck.

I've stopped worrying about times, I just make sure I run even/consistent races.

Agree final trials different tracks conditions with pace and no pace etc

Just trialing to continue finding best but think i have hit the wall with milers

The races seems much more of a lottery and look strange the way horses move back and forward with the new graphics.

Not surprised the CK is inconsistent, by the sounds of it better of ignoring times completely in this new game, have to say I prefer the old 2d, game feels bloated I think with the new 3d.
