Post Tweak the Potential Bar a Little
I don't want to get into a discussion between league players and non-league players with this.

I breed plenty of horses with full bars except potential. I would like to see the dark green potential bar catching up with the light green potential bar some more. It doesn't matter if the absolute potential is 75% or 100%, the same principle applies.

I breed about 25-30 foals a season and it has been 14 seasons since I had a horse fullfill its potential at 5yo. This is the best potential I have had in those 14 seasons. The rest of the bars are good and the absolute potential is 100% but the realised potential rarely gets beyond 75%.

Maybe it's just me but I want to win G1 races and the horse below has never even placed in any group race.

Ok, I have never really looked into the breeding side in too much depth, and naively plod through. How do you get your horses to have so much of those green bars full? I have never had a horse anywhere near like that. Is it just years and years in game time of breeding best with best over and over again, ie. very intensive? I have obviously been very negligent of a big part of this game for a very long time. Any advice would be greatly appreciated from anyone.

Thanks

Chris

It takes a long time and you really have to concentrate on one bar at a time once
you max one you go onto the next its trial and error with gamebreds there are no
secrets or short cuts just putting in alot of effort
