Post Breeding Too Easy????
Hi l know this is early as a lot of people are still dealing with Crashes never mind breeding but, Im on Hard season 6 and i have bread my first 2yo only poor ones out of a mixture of Group winning horses. What concerns me is these horses who came out of ok winners have turned into some decent animals. For instance my 3 2yo i have 2 G1 winners and other 1 has won G3. If they can win races and not be top class how are the really good ones ever going to have a decent race if these so so 2yo can win G1. Just a thought but has the breeding been made to easy or have i just not come up against any decent game horses???

Mike

No you just got lucky. lol I haven't had any Grade 1 winners yet. I have trouble getting anything consistent like I had the first game I played. When it crashed I lost that good season.

No way well i must be, got a 3yo that has never been out first 2 in 7 races and won 2 G3 1 G2 and 2 G1 and came 2nd in other 2. My best is my 3yo who just won 4 1m 4F G1 on the trot, least distance was 2L but l just thought game horses was weak

I play the US game so it may be different. But the first season I had a consistent allowance winner and haven't had anything since. The auction horses are lousy thus far. They only go to $280k. In SO3 they went up to $950K. I don't get it. It looks like Mark took the best horses out of the auction. lol

Not sure about breeding as i only managed to get 1 lot of yearlings before my save crashed and wouldn't load back up but i find hard easier in SO4 3 times i've started a new save on hard and finding it quite easy to win each time don't know if it's just pure luck but i remember hard being harder in SO3

I have had only 2 homebreds hit the track, both multiple G1 winning milers. In one way i am hoping for a few flops to make it more realisitc.

I'm lucky to get offspring. The repeat pairing doesn't work in the US game so I had to play $1.5 mil to get 1 foal because my colt was shooting blanks. lol

It seems that the red condition bar is a factor for everyone
