Ryan Whitehead wrote: 7 years ago IDEA FOR A POSSIBLE SMALL NEW SIM FEATURE: Distance Drop box

I was just curious if it might be possible in the future to have a drop box that will give us all the races within a certain radius of where our horse is located. For instance say my horse is located at TTO in South American. That is so close to the Islands and Central America as well but I have to do 3 different searches instead of 1 if say I could pull up all races within 250 miles or 500 miles etc...

I think it would be really nice for the newer players in the game who don't have all the geography down pat. Just a small idea but one I know I would find useful especially in South America, parts of the Middle East, and Asia.
As a new player I don't know where half my horses are situated and have to go to the maps to figure out which racecourse is near which farm and visa versa. It will be very handy and helpful to have a radius Like Ryan suggested.

Is there any way the sales price for a horse could be listed on the horse's page even if it's up for sale for an amount higher than your bank account can afford? The horse will still be listed in the Buy/Lease Horses section with the price, but when you view the horse it doesn't show that it's even up for sale if you can't afford it.

With staggered post times from across the world and me being a person who loves her sleep, I no longer get to see some results under the "Winners" tab. It's something I click on quite often, as I like to see how I stack in if I've had a good night, or if my friends have had a good night, I get pretty excited for them. There is plenty of room to make a second or third column, so we could see for example Monday night and those early Tuesday results at a normal hour on Tuesday and not miss out on sleep or the results.

More claiming races for 2yo paints, only one race every week isn't enough.

I don't mind the smart barns for all the stuff, but would it be possible to either be able to select the columns we see or be able to sort by horses In Alternate Barns or or not in alternate barns. I appreciate we can sort by the stuff in the triangle dropdowns, but I personally put all my horses in alternate barns, and even though I have a small barn, it is time consuming to figure out where my alternate barn horses stop..
