Valuation on New Purchases of Horses

Post by Neelia »

Is it really necessary to have to read the negative comments made while training and building up your horse.
To have to read stupid comments about the horse being an elephant etc. seems unfounded to me. Just the general appearance and positive attitude would sit better with me. Maybe put some more effort into description of colour, and temprement of animal, even its keenness to want to be trained. Happy Thoughts. !!!!!!! Thanks.

I do believe that the negative comments help with identifying breeding potential for specific traits, which is helpful if you cannot see your horses confo score.

sorry word was Evaluation. I dont see these negative characteristics carried forward to the offspring in the Sales. Like this idiot sprung from an elephant and a stallion that could not even pull a cart. hahaha. No problem. not serious. I still have a lot to learn from this wonderful game. thanks for the chit chat.
