Hi I don't know what's wrong with one of my ponies, Dreamlights Poison Ivy. She's doing absolutely terrible at cross country shows. She's a PEP, Last time she levelled up was august 8th (CC level 4), she's had plenty of workout-time since then, never missed a single training, has a level 4 rider, and still ... refusals, eliminations, always last or second to last. I can't figure out what's wrong. I never had that issue with her before, or with any of my other horses. |

Simply put, she's not a good show horse and is pretty weak. Running under the assumption that she's always been trained in evening, she's probably closer to being a SPS opposed to a PEP. The main thing that's causing issue is the weak heart and it's going to continue giving you grief. |

Hi Old Gods, Thanks for looking into it. Not sure what to do with her yet, but now at least i know what the cause of the problem is. Thx :) |

This is copied from the game guide: - Cross Country - In Cross Country, a horse's score is based on how many penalties they receive. Penalties are bad. If your horse has a refusal, they will get additional penalties. If your horse is eliminated (rider fall, etc), they will place last. In cross country, the amount of heart a horse has affects whether they refuse a fence or are eliminated. The horse with the lowest amount of penalties wins the class.
So according as Eury said, she will always be a weak XC show horse with her weak trait in heart. |
