NH game help
having a bit of a mare is it worth exporting even when the potential bar goes down?

My 3m horses are exported at 6\7yo and have about 92% potential and my longer distance horses are exported at 8\9yo and have about 85% potential. I feel that even though the potential bar has gone down, the horse has gained experience as it grows older and seems to jump better. Jim

Re: NH game help
Largely agree with Jim. I am less scientific though, I export all horses at 4yo if 2m and pot of 90%+ and then again all at 5 provided the pot is full, with exceptions made if 3.4m horse. At 6yo if they have made it this far I export without looking and keep to 10yo anything that has National breeding and is in the 3m+ range.
Bars are really not as important for jumpers, all my best jump lines are less impressive looking than my flat horses.

Re: NH game help
This may seem obvious but if you want to trial the same horse as a 6yo and the same horse as a 7yo, export the horse as a 6yo to ttf file and then import the horse into the same game and it usually has a "II" after its name. The AI treats it as a different horse. Export the two versions of the horse as a 6yo and a 7yo and you can race the original horse against the II version of the horse at different ages.
It is not an exact comparison, but I feel it is close enough to give you an idea of the horse at different ages.

Re: NH game help
What about geldings. Is there a difference if the horse is gelded? Most jump horses are gelded irl I think.

In the best part of 50 years watching racing and studying the history of it since it began I can think of no more than a handful of chasing entires. A few more hurdlers but very few chasers. However, as people keep pointing out this ain't the real world so chances are it makes no difference at all !

Re: NH game help
Very rare for me not to geld my jump horses, some 4yo’s may slip through. Not sure how much difference it makes.
