I was just thinking it would be great if we could get a breakdown of trainer stats based on circuits. It could create some interesting regional competition / rivalries and could add another layer of depth to the game. Just a small thought.

I’d also love a filter to see people’s stakes race stats! I track my own, but it would be fun to have something to compare it to ;)

Would it be possible to add a "winning trainer" field to the race search?

For example, if I wanted to search for Stakes races that I won back in Year 36. I would love to be able to go back and watch my first ever stakes win, if I could remember when it was... I wish I kept records back then. I'd love to be able to see which races I've won multiple times throughout the years.

This is probably ridiculous, but how awesome would it be if we could set (even mass set?!) a preferred workout distance/surface for horses? And adding a "use preset distance/surface" option when doing a mass workout (similar to the "use equipment already set for each horse" option.)

Thus making it possible to work every horse of one breed, at their preset conditions, at once. Would be incredibly helpful when figuring out equipment for yearlings.

I’ve wished for this as well! It would be amazing 😍

Ooooooh I'd love that as well. As well as some way I could automatically set my horse's "horse type" based on their parents.

Another thought, could we add a “quote” column to the mass ship page? It could be: Stable | Location | Board | Quote | Amenities | Ship.

So for example if someone was to select 70 some broodmares and think “oh, this will only be 10-20k to ship to my farm!” and then click ship, only to find they have now $7 in their account.

This is PROBABLY not a true story, but you never know 😜😂

Okay, okay, another one, but you know what would be REALLY awesome?

Can we have a few more allowance conditions? For sponsored races, at least, even if they don't make it onto the regularly scheduled racecards?
For example:
non-winners of a stakes race lifetime
non-winners of a stakes race in the last 16 weeks
non-winners or NW2 in the last 16 weeks
non-winners of some amount of money in the last 16 weeks

It can be so hard to race in open allowance company with a marginal horse after they've exhausted their conditions... the jump from NW5 to open allowance is often not worth bothering with.

Could it please be possible for partnerships to send pensioned horses to Greener Pastures?

Maybe a forum board where people can post their SIM fantasy stories, since they can’t be submitted as articles?

I would like to see, either in the Edge or on the forum, a section entitled "Questions For the Steward" or "Ask the Steward A Question". Self explanatory, I think. :)

I'd like to see the location column still present when shipping on a mobile device. I admittedly rarely sim on my phone but tried to yesterday wanting to move a horse to a different circuit after its race but couldn't because I had no way of knowing where most farms were located

Try turning the phone sideways. That should work I believe.
