Steward breds are not all that unpredictable. Precisely why in time I will be getting out of the thoroughbred portion of this game. I don't want to race against these artificially supped up monsters. Far too often I will see a sire that has 2 or 3 offspring that have made 2 or 3 million on the track and a whole list of junk offspring. I'll guarantee you those 2 or 3 are Steward breds and the rest bred by the mere mortals playing the game.

I'd really love to see a "G1 Wins" column added to the trainer rankings page. Please and thank you!

Am I the only one that wants to see "Grade 1 Wins" as a column on the trainer rankings page?

Maybe it's just me, but as someone with no G1 wins, I'm pretty ok with that not being visible anywhere :lol:

And as someone who isn't a new or junior player, I don't chime in saying features for those players aren't needed just because they have no impact on me!

I can’t see this happening as that’s linked to Simperior play, not the general population

Haha. Oh, I definitely think it would be a good idea to have that. A G1 win is much more impressive than other stakes wins and definitely is useful when comparing players and to show off as a player with a G1 win (or multiple(. I was just trying to be funny.

Would it be possible to have the country code on the barn page itself? So instead of it saying just Kingswood Canada it would have the (CAN) as well? I name my farms so I know where they are, but not everyone does. It would be handy to be able to see at a quick glance without having to look on the horse’s page

Oh goodness...4 in a row? 😅 I feel bad but I have to write them down before I forget!

It would be super awesome if the bidding page said something about if the auction is a lease or buy, since if you want to know right now you have to hit “back to auction” link to read the title, and then go back to the bidding page and refresh.

It currently says: You are bidding on "Horse". I was thinking something along the lines of:

You are bidding to BUY "Horse"

Or

You are bidding to LEASE “Horse”

I’m not sure if that is possible on the back end coding, I know I usually visit the horses I’m bidding on from the My Bids page and there is no way of knowing without going to the auction page.

I’m not sure if this makes any sense 😅
