Hello All and a Few Questions from a Beginner
Wanted to pop in and say hello to everyone!
First and foremost, thank you to everyone for all the invaluable information, tips and coaching found on the site. I am new but can tell this game has a wonderful player base that helps each other. That can make a world of difference in the enjoyment of the game.
I have a few questions I'd like to throw out there....I apologize in advance if these have been answered et nausem. I tried my best to use due diligence in searching, beforehand.
1) Do stats other than Potential rise as the horse matures? I ask more for breeding purposes than the actual performance of the horse, as it ages. IE, if you identify what you think to be a good breeding candidate horse, is it best to race it to a certain age to "optimize" stats or are these stats fixed?
2) I believe the best route in starting off in the game is to start a breeding game and then identify potential breeding horses in other game instances and transfer them over? I see that the max you can transfer is 6....is that per game or per year?
3) Not sure how to word this next question but I will try
. Basically, do winning Championship courses have a bearing on offspring? Let's say I have two male horse options, both with the exact same stats (for ease of explaining), however one has won several "big" races while the other's claim to fame has been allowance and handicap race wins. All being equal, is the Championship horse a better stud?
Thank you in advance for any advice, tips and knowledge you can provide!
