Racing barn sort option for SIMperior

Post by Bradley Davis »

I wonder if it would be possible to sort the racing barn by eligibility, just like one can sort by age or gender. I'd love to be able to sort for, say, 3 year old maiden fillies, or for 4 year old turf routers eligible for a NW3 when I look through my barn.

I figured that since the SIM can now show you which horses are eligible for a created race, then perhaps the coding to make this happen isn't too difficult.

Just a thought.

I agree; being able to search by surface/distance (eg 'turf routers') would be a huge help for sure.

Actually, you can do that already as long as you've set the horse type on each individual horse's page. Of course, you have to be SIMperior.

On each race number there's a button that says "horses eligible for this race". Same thing as what you want basically. You can search for say unfilled races and then click on a race and click on "horses eligible for this race" it will give you a page that lists all your horses that fit into that race criteria as long as they aren't already entered in a race that week, injured or not yet able to race.

I'd love it if we could sort our horses in categories we choose,


groups like:

phenoms
stakes worthy
allowance type
claimers
glue
Live Strong- Baltimore crown champion- dirt route
Its a Gamble--MONSTER!
Afriad to Lead-- SC winner

Terrific Anna, thank you! I'd never noticed that feature before.

That's essentially what I was looking for, though I'd still love to be able to sort my stable by conditions.
