I think it would be neat if a player's profile page had a link list, "Stallions at stud", "Horses for sale", "Active racers" "Active broodmares" etc. I know we can find this info in the search function but it seems very convenient and natural for a player's barn to actually be accessible through their profile page.

A lil text box for personalized info could also be fun, if people wanted to be able to highlight their promos or ongoing looking-fors or whatever they feel like writing about that might be continuously relevant but quickly gets buried on the forum.

If a player has a coupled entry in a race, it would be great if the RaceViewer used a different character rather than "*" to indicate the player's horses in the race. Even with the large number of coupled entries that I run, I still sometimes forget to scan the full field after seeing the first "*" when watching my races.

On the bookings page, there's the thing saying "this year you have bred x fillies x colts", currently that only counts for non GP sired foals which I get cause of the filly thing and GP sired foals don't count to the filly thing. Is there anyway there could be a grand total on that page including GP studs?

"Duplicate This Offer" in the exchange.

Basically, if I put up an offer on the exchange, a single button click to add the exact same offer again instead of having to start from scratch each time. Would make life much easier.

Here's a super small thing:
I would love if the "rename horse" page could list the gender of the horse.

I’m not sure this can be done, but here goes. When you click on your horse count and your whole stable is right there, alphabetically, is it possible to have them sorted by the most recent acquisition?

I confess, I’m getting old and sometimes I forget if I put a claim in and my numbers don’t make sense. So if I could see my barn according to the newest arrival (be it claimed or bred) it would go a long way to aiding my sanity.

P.S. Thanks for all you do! This whole sim-thing helps my sanity! ;)

Any chance we could just have maiden/NW races split when a 13th horse is entered? 🥺

Could we get a multidistance option for stallion type.

I currently have a versatile paint mid stallion who can A+ nick at middle distance and A at sprint/route. Since he nicks reasonably well at all 3 distances I have him listed as all 3 types, but the reality is I don't know that he'd be a great option for someone looking for a pure sprinter, rather he'd be a good option for someone trying to breed multidistance horses. I'm sure he's not the only horse like that out there. If there was a multidistance option I would take him off sprint/route and just have him as a mid/multidistance. Would make it easier for people looking for multidistance horses to find them, and would also make it easier for people looking for single-distance horses to find stallions that truly are good or that one distance.
