This actually surprises me, I'm always super aware of taking up all that space on your home pages and try to get it off of there ASAP.
I like this. Just an extra day would be ok with me. I am always trying to remember a horse that ran or won's name, so I can search it and watch the race.
Gonna throw a plug in here for the SIMuseum.. :)

It's SO LONG my ocd can't handle it.

Do what I do, search for Recent Results and Grade 1s. :)

You could create a page that links to all the calls :) Like just a Date - Race Card and it goes to the YouTube video. Then when people are bored out of their skulls cus they are stuck inside with no sports for 9000 days... they can just listen to them all LOL
This, please. I never listen to any of the calls, even when I'd like to, because they disappear too quickly.

Can we please have broodmare sire stats show up on an individual stallion’s page? Right now we can only see the stats through rankings which obviously doesn’t include everyone.

And also, I would absolutely love it if we were able to see broodmare sire gallop stats please!

Ok another one:
In the 'Races' tab under Racing, can we please have the ability to sort by distance, surface, age, region etc.? Just like you would when entering?

Could we pretty please with a cherry on top get Steeplechasers as a separate breed option on the Profile > Stats page, as well as the Manage > Players page? Just like they are in the Player Racing/Breeding/Training barns, pleeeeease? :3

Why? They’re not a separate breed are they? They are a division of TB, just like all the others.

This would only be fair if we could divide the stats by all the different TB divisions, as lots of players (not me, I run pretty much everything!) specialise in different divisions. If that is done, I can understand and it would be nice to see who has the most success in each of the divisions :)

Because once they “become a steeplechaser” they essentially become a separate breed and are no longer able to compete in other divisions, unlike any other TB.

And I personally would like to see the stats for my chasers separate, which is why I asked for it. They are listed as a separate breed in the player racing barn, and it was my bad, since they are only able to be separate in the racing barn, which is okay! Because I only want to be able to see my racing stats for my active/past racers. It would be next to impossible to do for other TBs because they don’t “become a turf router” (for example) their division eligibility is only modified by the player and not the system.

Also for as long as I’ve been playing the majority of people consider chasers more a mixer division than a TB division, or at least that’s the impression I’ve gotten, so to me it makes more sense to be able to split them out.

This isn’t about bruising people’s egos where all of a sudden 80% of their grade 1 wins aren’t sorted into the TB division when filtered, I legit just want to see my own stats without looking through each one of my miserable chasers.

No horse changes its breed.

What if a horse wins a G1 on the flat early in the season and wins a G1 as a chasers later that season?

Seems highly unlikely, but it depends how the stats are calculated.

How I think the stats are calculated is by going through the races the player entered, not even caring who the Individual horses are. And therefor the system would be able to tell the difference between flat and jump races run by the same horse who becomes a steeplechaser mid year.

When a horse “becomes a steeplechaser” it is able to be sorted/listed as a separate breed in your racing barn technically it IS a separate breed. So it should be easy for the the system to sort the results over jumps vs flat, even if a specific horse won on flat and over jumps in the same year.
