This is how this will work. You have to buy credits for a racetrack that is avaliable for your location.
5 Credits - $500
10 Credits - $1000
15 Credits - $1500
20 Credits - $2000
Horses have to have at least 5 Sessions of training before they can race. Each credit is worth one training session. You will have to guess what the horse's preferences are. I already have the stats of each horse stored, and each time you get a piece right, I'll tell you. If you have not found your horse's stats at the end of 5 sessions, then it's not recommended that you race the horse. If you do, it'll decrease their odds and make them less likely to win.
Speaking of odds, they're based on many things. It depends on their previous race record, percentage, sire, dam, if the distance is the one they prefer, the jockey, the starting gate position, track conditions (depends on track material and weather), track material (dirt, turf, grass), and even stable.
If the track is dirt, these are the track conditions possible:
Dry/Hard/Packed
Dry/Dusty/Loose
Normal/Deep/Loose
Normal/Moist/Sticky
Muddy/Sticky/Hard
Muddy/Deep/Sticky
If the track is turf (fake grass), these are the track conditions possible:
Dry/Hard/Slippery
Dry/Dusty/Gripping
Moist/Slippery/Loose
Moist/Gripping/Loose
Muddy/Highly Slippery/Wet
Muddy/Standing Puddles/Loose
If the track is grass, these are the track conditions possible:
Dry/Hard/Packed
Dry/Hard/Slippery
Normal/Soft/Gripping
Normal/Deep/Sinking
Muddy/Slippery/Soft
Muddy/Deep/Loose
After the race is run, I'll post the results in announcer style. Then I will add the win/place/show or just race to their records. Every horse's records will be public.
