 optimising potential
Anybody know the best way to optimise a horses potential? I've often had a 80 potential horse only reach 60 , where's a 70 potential horse has reached its max of 70 and out performs the 80 potential horse. I repeat ,is there a way to optimise or is it all down to chance ? Please respond someone. dotsy

 Re: optimising potential
if you are only getting 80% Bar and that is only 60% full you need to go shopping to find more gamrebreds with better bars this is the only way to do it unless you hit lucky with a gamebred in the breeding shed

 Re: optimising potential
Thanks for response PJ , but just to be clear on this. Does this mean that horses never improve there actual potential in relation to there estimated potential? dotsy

 Re: optimising potential
Im not sure about gamebreds but i know your own bred horses do well at least for me anyway. but im pretty sure it would be the same for gamebreds too.

 Re: optimising potential
 This is one of my new jump horses and by time he's got to peak age 5/6 he should have full potential.
