Things I hate.

Post by Andrea Bouwkamp »

Horses that love mud(it seems like all my freaks do 😡)

TB dirt routers. ALL my freaks are basically high priced claimers but I just keep breeding them. I should just stop.

That I can’t send horses under 5 to AJ

That we don’t get 1K to geld anymore.

I can never find enough time to train/breed/sell. How the hell do people who work do it? It boggles my mind.

Stud fees over 40K.

Steeplechasers. They are so unpredictable. Back in the day, this used to be a relatively affordable division now it’s as hard as dirt routers.

So many of my better horses are mudders right now, it's painful.

Look into Rochelle Z’s Pensioner Program, it might help alleviate the third thing on your list.

Weather preferences annoy me too. They supposedly don’t heavily influence results, but…

I have a soft spot for mudders haha. Four of my five homebred millionaires preferred a wet surface, along with The Groke who isn't a millionaire but won a Steward's Cup.

I hate when I accidentally let my SIMperior expire right before the weekend, and every single entry for Friday auto-scratches 🤡

I hate dirt routers too! I have a long list of blue hen mares who can’t produce a claimer winner.

I also hate that there are not enough hours in the day to keep ahead of entries and all! It’s frustrating to say the least!
