Hi

Hoping somebody can clear something up

So I’ve got a breeding barn and a stud farm now at my stable

My mares have a list of International Sires they can breed with, this list seems to never change, or hasn’t in my first 2 seasons by the looks

Do I get chance to breed my mares with different sires or do I have to retire my own horses to the stud farm? There seems to be a great deal of data behind the scenes on the breeding tab but the list of International sires seems my only options to breed, am I missing something or is that the lot?

Cheers

Anybody able to advise?

The game retires a certain number of horses every year to stud duty, presumably based upon algorithms that sustain the proper demographics. You should see additional/new stallions at the start of each new season.

Thanks Mark, that makes sense

So to clarify unless you use your own studs/colts you can only select from the list which is below your list of mares under the breeding tab?

You can’t go to another stable and select a stud etc, it has to come from that list under your available mares?

Cheers

Correct! You have to initiate a breeding from the sires list vice directly from the stud farm. That said, I did a cursory review of 15-20 studs from different farms and they were all included in the sires list.

Many Thanks Mark, appreciate the confirmation
