| Post subject: | Advice about NH stable capacity. |
How do people cope with the stable capacity? I'm really struggling at the moment, I have about 89 horses and I'm approaching Cheltenham. Most of them are horses who I have bred or bought who have never really raced so I don't really want to sell them. The older horses are ones who are either novice chasers who haven't been properly tried or horses who are still winning me top races. I can never remember how many I've bred because they disappear for a season (I'll have to remember to write it down in future) and I like to buy the most expensive 2yo's at the sales (over £450,000) but after 5 seasons of doing this I'm seriously running out of room. How do other people cope with this? |

Hard question!! I've always had 100 horses in my stable for the NH, though I don't use a NH schedule main is a combined one. Can't you look in your breeding shed and see how many 2yo's you have coming in? My system was that I always had 8,9yo horses ready for retiring each season. If you can hold back a season and not breed has many horses you should be able to balance it up. |

How do other people cope with this? You could play a two player game and split your stable into hurdlers and chasers. I send my younger horses hurdling then sell/buy them into the chasers stables aged 6. Then if I want to breed from them sell/buy them back into stable 1 and send to barn. |

Thanks for your replies. That's a good idea EPW but wouldn't I have to start a new game and transfer them all? Hemz I can't check the breeding barn because my yearlings disappear for a season then come back as 2yo's so I lose a season with them and can't look to see how many I have coming through. I did think about setting up a racing game and a breeding game and as you can't race 2yo's anyway transferring them into the racing game ready to race, but I'd still have the same capacity problem. Plus that would get really complicated! |
