Your First Season at Hoofprint Bay
The First Week
One field, one rundown stable, one mare. Boarding, lessons and yearling sales are the three incomes before prestige opens anything else.
Care Before Training
Thrush, abscesses and saddle sores are modelled, and a sore horse cannot be trained. Grooming gates everything that follows.
Two Separate Ladders
Strength raises what a horse can jump; confidence decides how far you can push it. In 1.0 confidence is deliberately slow to max.
Breeding Is the Endgame
Coat, markings, ability and personality all inherit, and the breeding lab previews the foal before you commit to a pairing.
