I'm embarrassed to confess that, due to not taking the time I should have with this game, my racing and breeding barns are a mess! I have way too many unpredictable mares, and I don't know what to do with them. I don't have the money to keep so many of them, especially when I'd like to find or breed more formidables or higher.
Do unpredictables ever sell at auction? I wouldn't necessarily care if I only got a few dollars for them. Or would it make sense to send them to greener pastures? Is there a limit to how many horses we can send away in a given period of time?
Or, last option I can think of, should I bite the bullet and keep breeding at least some of these ladies in the desperate hope of getting a few good foals out of them?
I apologize if I'm posting this in the wrong forum, but thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Re: Too many unpredictables
I tend to give unpredictables a shot - or I keep them around to breed to cheap studs to get colts (to balance out my filly/colt ratio so I don't have to pay GPs if there's a mare I really, really want a filly from). But if you can't afford that, you can always put them in sales for a couple of bucks (if they aren't already bred for the year) or ship them to a Kingswood farm, pension them, and then reserve to Rochelle.

Re: Too many unpredictables
Just send them to Greener Pastures if they are 5 or over unless they have a pedigree you like.
