I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out if the Average Earnings per Start rankings were broken. There is no way I could be ranked 7th lifetime and in the top 10 since year 30 with only 3 major wins in 15 seasons O.o Turns out they are actually correct. I guess maidens and allowances add up? Definitely would have thought the Lauras, Erics and Susies of the world would be killing me for that stat.

You know whats annoying? Being the breeding pages and not being able to easily seperate your studs out from everything else speciallly if you got some under 4 like some of my mixers can be. And i was going to mention something else but i keep on getting intrupted so i've forgotten.

I think it would be good to separate statistics by breed. So just like with the regular search option, one could select All or a specific breed for the statistics.

That would be a great option -have the USA and Canada separate, but also something on the list that shows both countries.

I love the idea of this, but I think we should also include Mexico.

These are wonderful, but I'd still really love a "ship all horses home" button on the race results page.

This has been at the top of my wishlist for a while (along with sortable financial transactions). I think Em has said the sortable transactions may come with the next version, I don't know about sortable trainer stats by breed. We can dream.

I recalculated mine by taking out all the old SIM years (1-15) and my new rank was 7th ($17,497/start). However, that was without recalculating the EPS for the six players now above me, at least some of whom would also drop since they are also old SIM. So I'm not sure it would make a lot of difference. Sorry :)

Note I'm looking at "active", not "all", which is pretty much a useless list all around regardless of whether old SIM results are in it or not.
