I'm really just playing this game because I love horses!  :-)).png?345680197  Thank you to everyone who congratulates me!!!  I try to congratulate everyone who congratulates me (if I see your name of course).  (h).png?345680197  I started off raising Paints, but I have since branched off into other breeds (first Friesians, then Irish Hunters, and most recently Holsteiners).  I occasionally buy random horses in the auctions intending to train them and then sell them, but I usually get too attached to them during the process, and they end up staying (this means that I don't sell my horses). (a).png?345680197   Thank you for taking the time to read my comments.  :D.png?345680197

I am hoping to blup the horses under the blupping tab.  When I blup horses, I do it without black market items.  First, I complete the rides for the top three skills.  Second, I try to get the 20 wins.  Third, I get all of the gains from competitions for the top three skills.  Fourth, I complete the training for the top three skills.  Finally, I finish aging the horse to ten years if needed.  ~ I seem to have come to a stalemate in this area . . . since my horses can't compete in the rookie comps (due to genetic potential), wins are much harder to come by.

How to Stroke a Xanthos:  go to the communities button (on the blue bar), choose directories from the drop down menu, select the horses tab, type in the name Xanthos, check the box to limit your search to divine horses, hit search, scroll down until you see a golden horse rearing, click on one of the horses, finally scroll down and click the stroke button (on the left hand side of the page under actions)

Remember to also look for Archimedes, Frost, and Topaz in the directories and to visit the horses in Safe Haven.
