Training

Note that this screen is not available in PUNTER MATCH mode or when SIMPLE TRAINING MODE has been selected (in GAME OPTIONS).

The top window lists all the current players owned horses. There are three buttons available for each horse under the TRAINING column. The first is the LOT or the intensity of training. The second is the emphasis (speed, normal or stamina). The third is the 'special training' option that allows the player to focus on either Agility, breaking or jumping. If you select special training then the intensity of normal training will default to low (blue) meaning that your horse may lose fitness. See the manual for more information on training.

There are also three buttons for each horse under the TRAINING column. The first (blue) will toggle between selecting and de-selecting a horse to take part in the gallop. The second will identify the horse as the lead horse. Clicking the third button simply displays the horse data and training windows at the bottom of the screen.

The table below lists the gallop options. Here you may set the distance, choose dirt gallops, choose hurdle or fences. Note that you may only choose dirt or jumps if you have first purchased the correct stable add-on via the FINANCE menu (accessed from the STABLE menu). Click the view gallop icon to watch the gallop. Note that you cannot set the jockey tactics (apart from the lead horse). Also jockeys will intentionally go easy during a gallop. They will push but not whip their mounts.

The selected horses STATS bar is at the bottom left of the screen. If some stats are not available then you will need to purchase correct stable add-on before you can view them.
