...no one is going to sell horses for under 1000 when that's what you get for free ranging them.
Just continue playing the game and being sensible with your ebs and you'll end up being able to afford more. All players started out in the same place, so I'm not sure what you're hoping to achieve with this post?

GreysAnatomy Stables said: FR is Free Range, also known as setting your horse free. PPP and E are ratings. Each horse has three letter ratings (four if Bravery is counted but for our sake we'll leave it out). One rating for dressage, one rating for cross country, one rating for show jumping. In order of worst to best rating it's Sup-par, Average, Superb, Premium, Elite, World Class. They are abbreviated Sub, A, S, P, E, and W. So, as an example, a PPP is a horse that is Premium in all three ratings. A horse that is EASub is Elite in dressage, Average in cross country, and Sub-par in show jumping.
RO is rollover, the first of every month when the game resets. Events such as horses aging and the breeding count change.
Oh, thank you.

Thank you, i'll note this down! SPR Equestrian said: Sometimes you get lucky and players will sell you a string of geldings for a cheaper price (not necessarily 1,000 ebs, but cheaper than you would find in the sales). Try posting an ad in the 'Wanted Ads' section of the forums - you may get lucky!
But I took a look at your account....the #1 way to make money in this game is to show! Not the most glamorous but I find it fun watching my geldings level up and start winning their shows! You have to figure out what you want to do with your game. Do you want to complete quests? Do you want to breed for color? Just for fun? Try to get to the top of the leaderboards? Whatever it may be, showing is the only way to make enough money to do what you please!
*If I were you, this is what I would do*I would sell all your mares/fillies or free range them. I am on my second game year and personally don't want to start breeding until I can afford really good lines for my breeding stock. I haven't decided at what point that will be, but mares/fillies don't show as well as geldings OR you have to pay 200ebs PER MARE PER YEAR for the Cycle Suppressant (so they'll be as competitive). Not worth it IMO.
Next - geld all your stallions. I saw 3 that are rated that you could keep but sell/fr all the A combos or S combos even! I have one gelding who is SSS -he definitely took longer to start showing well but he's been making a profit for a longer period too...I also have P/P/S combos who show well. I wouldn't buy a gelding with an S rating (or lower) in XC. You could keep the ones that aren't rated but that's a guessing game and will take you forever to rate them all as a free stable.
Sell 2 of your 25 stall barns. Keep one to fill with good quality geldings. By selling the 2 barns, you will get 150,000 ebs to spend on said geldings. As mentioned by other players - PPP or something with one E is best! I was able to buy all my Level 2 geldings for 2,000 (ish) ebs. Just pay attention that they aren't too old. I would look at anything under 8 if you can, since the older they are the less time you have to show them. You have to invest in these horses as they will work their digitized hearts out for you week in and week out. 1,000 ebs probably won't buy you PPP horses or even PPS combo horses, and if they do, they won't have any training and you'll have to spend a month waiting for them to train up before you can see any profit (TRUST ME.)
Hyrim is an older player who wrote an awesome guide on a bunch of things, one of them being how to successfully show! I used to play back when she was around and followed this guide to a T and became very successful....I came back and started this game by following that guide...needless to say I am in my 2nd game year and looks like I'm up for a couple awards, I am doubling the profit I made in my first month, as well as the number of geldings I have AND am able to put money into my savings account for future breeding stock. I should note, I'm not trying to brag at all! Just trying to show that this guide works - I can find the link and either send it to you or post here :)
Sorry for the long text, I just saw your post and offer some "quick" advice lol ;)
Feel free to message me if you have any questions, etc!
