Matt, being able to hide your stats is relatively new and there have been PAGES of debate and argument about this. If you want to read some it, feel free to do a search but I don't think it will ever go back.

Don't know if its possible but as your entering a horse and all of the races for that horse come up, it would be awesome to have something show that you already have a horse in that race. Maybe its just a problem for Sim horse hoarders like me, but when I am entering a ton of say, dirt routers and I keep clicking to open races only to see I already have an entrant......is very annoying! I don't know if the race could be a darker shade of blue or what, but it would be a real help and speed up entering by a ton.

Also when entering we get this message:
I Stand Corrected' could enter these upcoming races:
(Click on a race to enter this horse)

If added to that could be something like "I Stand Corrected is at Fun in the Farm,Florida" and could enter these upcoming races" would be amazing!

It would be really nice if we could still see the notes for horses in our Cemetery.

I would like to see the sire and dam of the horses in my breeding barn listed on the front page next to the horse.

I want, every day when I log in, for the SIM to tell me the one most important thing I could do to improve my stable. That I'm not already doing, I mean.

Then again, all it would say for me every day is "go enter your horses" so maybe that wouldn't be so helpful

Hey Chani, that's already possible, if the mare's "type" is set to steeplechaser. There's a clickable option between "age" and "breed" on the search page :)

Ara, that is an awesome idea ;)

Erin, it doesn't work for retired chaser mares. That's what Chani meant. :wink:

Yeah.. once a mare is retired they revert back to being normal flat racers which annoy the crap out of me lol

Oh, I see, I didn't realize that! I don't really shop for retired chaser mares, I just stumble across them already in my barn XP

I'd love to be able to search for both sprint and mile races , (and mile and route races) at the same time, rather than do a search for one type, and then the other .

it would be a great help when planning races for 7furlong and 8.5 furlong horses

Adding more options to the circuits page so you can cut down the races to 3yos only or whatever would be really nice.

A couple things that would interest me...

1) Additional breakup of records into Sprint/Mile/Route for each surface.

2) Making a "target distance" option as well as a "+/-" option to better define the races available to your race horse. Currently, you need to change your horse type if you want to race a short router at a mile.
