Something Incredible
Well I thought I've seen everything in this game but I was wrong, I was buying horses in the US game when I happened to buy the wrong horse and this is what I bought. Does anything look strange........Look again. If u hadn't noticed this is a full potential 2yo. I've never seen one before in any SO game, perhaps other people have had one well I've never seen it before and was amazed.

Re: Something Incredible
With this horse as a starting point, you could clean up the 2yo sprint races in next seasons league.
I think I need to start a new american game.
Let us know how he gets on when u race him.

Re: Something Incredible
john is it a colt or a filly?
martin if its a colt you play for 7 seasons breeding it with every multiple G1 mare
if its a filly same as but process is longer dont breed after 9yo as a few bars do deteriate just make sure u save to dat as 2yo then if u find a good un you can race at 3yo (helps with start up money) then retire at 4

I've tried him and he's 8L of my best two year olds, a great place to start if u find one steve. Plus every horse u bred will have a full 3yo potential, that would save a massive amount of time. Steve if anyone could catch up it's u. Boys I think if u do start a US game then I think u need to go in all Thursday's sales and look for 5F two year olds, I think they will be only 5f horses ( I could be wrong but I think that's where they will be) and only look for the first 5 season's. I think it was the first or second season I found him. If anyone does find one take a pic and post it in here.

Plus the first season for everyone is a learning season and everyone will have had a kicking but everyone needs it. What u learn from it will be great experience going forward even in SO7.

Let us know how he gets on when u race him. Probably would have been great before but I'm running down my flat breeding (made the decision early this month), I've ran my flat breeding battery's out. I'm only having a small flat squad for next season , I think around 10 horses. If I don't recharge them then when the new game comes out I would only have a jumps team so I'm taking it easy and if we get another league season after the next them perhaps i'll start breeding again. It will be fun watching everyone else battle for the league. I'm still playing my jumps game ( still love playing it) even after all these years, I've got a 340 day schedule going. And the breeding is still great ( more fun than the flat). I'll bred him with a couple of my horses over the next day or two and I'll show u my results. Will be interesting to see the results.

Re: Something Incredible
Crazy prices in America just paid 3.8 Million dollars for a 2yo that could not win a 1 horse race
