Group One horses going novice chasing
I am delighted and grateful to see you are sill updating the game to make it more realistic. Lots of people don't buy the game to play fantasy league racing, and just want a bit of a go at realstic horse racing.
With that in mind. It is extreme rare for 100 plus rated horses on the flat to go juvenile hurdling. Even less so if they only "get" a mile on the flat. It is even rarer for horses that have won or placed in Group One races on the flat to begin a new career as novice chasers at the age of five. For a start, almost no horse has ever gone straight from racing on the flat to novice chasing. Almost nothing that "gets" only 10 furlongs on the flat ever goes into a National Hunt career. Having a Queen Anne Stakes winner rated 120 turning up in a novice hurdle at Towcester before placing in another Group One on the flat is not something that happens.
Ever.
