Kudos  I know, I can't remember what made me keep progressing with the distance. Thing is, I have no idea what to do at 4? Shall I not race her until a G1 2m comes up or see how she goes over 1m4? pjrhodes1970 wrote: her times over 1m4 are good This. I'm surprised she managed to run a good St Leger time though. I wouldn't run her over 2m unless you feel like taking chances with your horses like I do. I'd stick to 1m4-1m6f....even though I swear that looks like more of a 1m2f horse

She hasn't finished for the season though, she still has 2 races ahead of her - although thankfully she has a bit of a break before them.

 Re: Offspring of the 'Great One'
Look at the condition bar, will the red bar go back up, I know the green bar will.

 Re: Offspring of the 'Great One'
Is that what happens if you race a horse too much in one season? I've never had the condition bar drop apart from when you lose a fraction after the first season.
I wondered if it had anything to do with the fact the year in the game was 2267 and the horses gradually lose a small fraction each season?

She had 2 more races, managed to get boxed in terrribly in both. Came a blanket 4th in the Racing Post Trophy, but won her Breeders Cup race albeit in a very slow time.  Next season's going to be interesting for her.

Amazing!
How many (few) races do you watch in an average season?

I also don't have more than 25 horses in a stable at any one time, a lot of those horses are retired early as they aren't good enough for me to race or breed from. And I don't race any horse after it's 4th year, with the rare exception of those I want to try in 5yo+ Jumps races. Finally, I have no life, so I have on and off devoted a lot of time to the game

 Re: Offspring of the 'Great One'
Won't it be hard to give up SO4 when you have done all those years when SO5 comes out? I still play SO3, just can't stop and not play.
