Hello! I have recently bred my first WW girl which I am over the moon about, and now have the need to train her. I understand that you train once a week after assigning a rider to your horses, but I don't understand recording the training. What do all the weeks and digits mean in the remarks? What shows should I enter and when with a horse I am training to match? Should I SD geldings and show them or AD, and if so how? I have honestly been very intimidated by this and have been putting off showing for some time. In short, help ??

Have you tried referring to the Game Guide and looking at the "Your Horse" and "Showing" sections? They are very helpful (:

Recording the training is tracking down her bars every week from 4 and on to I'd say about week 15. If lucky, week 3. We use our remarks to help out other AD breeders on how well their training is. . SD geldings, I do every Monday Tuesday and Wednesday in just that discipline. AD geldings, I do dressage xc and show jumping every Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. . I hope this helps at least a little bit. Edited at February 5, 2020 03:26 PM by Reindeers

First I'll address how to train your horse. Each week you'll have to feed, pay your riders, and go to the training center. The weeks just go with how many weeks you've trained your horse. The digits corespond to the 6 characteristics on a horses page (mv,int,hrt,scp,spd,str). AD horses will start getting their second bar of training for each characteristic weeks 3-5 and their third bars weeks 7-10 and one more bar around every 4 weeks. So if your horse goes up a bar in heart and speed week 4 I would write, 4:112121 in their remarks. For showing each discipline has 3 characteristics. Dressage has the traits movement, intelligence, and strength. XC has heart, speed, and strength. Jumping has heart, speed, and strength. Each level or showing goes along with one colored set of training bars. I wait until my horse has all the bars in the level along with one extra, for example. I would wait to show a level one horse until they had at least 2 bars of training for each characteristic that goes with the discipline. So for a horse to place well in a level 1 jumping show I would wait until they had 2 bars in heart, scope, and speed. I train AD rated geldings in all disciplines and show them in all disciplines and show SD rated geldings in their discpline but I also show them in other disciplines when they could do well. This is more of a personal preference, some people train PEP combo geldings as SD. I hope that helps, let me know if you have questions.
