Abilities, Stats & Training
What are Abilities?
Abilities are developed through training, they are what the horse has to give them either improvement or lower their chances in either a race or show.
What are Stats?
Stats are what your horses levels are in certain things e.g. Jumping 5/10 , left lead 2/10. These are improved via training. They can also be improved by entering either training or schooling shows.
What is Training?
Training is the way you improve your horse to enter in races or competitions. These go towards your Stats.
How do abilities work?
Abilities work in a very simple way, they are determined depending on the discipline/s your horse/s is/are.
Every horse will start of with all their abilities at nothing. To earn abilities you need to improve your stats through training, this grants you with an ability e.g loves jumping, hates jumping in the center, hates long tracks, bears, strong left lead etc..... It can continue on and on.
So once you have improved a stat you can earn several abilities. Please do note there is a maximum of 4 abilities. e.g Jump training level 10 = Loves to jump, Left leg level 10 = Strong L. Lead OR Left lead.
There are many abilities however, if your horse has all their stats to 10 then the abilities will be random generated.
Abilities for Show Jumpers:
- Hock Release (Bounce at 10): This determins the horses bounce action, on how much spring he uses to push himself from the ground.
- Obedience (Obedience at 10): The Response Between horse and Rider is absolute.
- Relaxed (Relaxed at 10): Horse is less fidgety in the Arena.
- Stamina (Stamina at 10): When at 10 the horse carries more stamina throughout the show.
- Fast (Fast Pace at 10): The Horse can quickly maneuver in the arena.
- Fluid (Fluid at 10): The horse is in a well balance motion throughout the performance
- Unbalanced (Fluid at 0): The horse does not do well in the balance and can slip footing.
- Passive (Passive at 10): The horse has a passive response to the crowd and atmosphere to perform without bad reaction to noise etc...
- Spooky (Passive at 0): The horse becomes edgy, unsettled in the show environment.
- Picks Heels (Slow Pace at 10) The horse can lift his heels as required to what he is performing at the time.
- Heels Drag (Slow Pace at 0) The horse drags his heels and does not pick up his feet as high when required.
- Focused (Focus at 10) The horse can focus well in the performance and does not differ to eat grass in arenas or other common cases of horses distracted...
- Unfocused (Focus at 0) The horse strays away or tries to eat grass or gets commonly distracted during performance and leads to boredom.
- Left Lead (Left lead at 10): The horse can with ease change his lead leg without much rider contact.
- Right Lead (Right lead at 10): The horse can with ease change his lead leg without much rider contact.
- Forward (Forward at 10): The horse can put more effort in his chest and forelegs to perform many moves in the performance, this can enhance the performance of the Flying change, Pirouette etc...
- Rear (Rear at 10): This can improve the hindquarters performance in selected moves that require move rear action.
- Landing Center (Middle at 10): The horse can land with ease middle of the jump.
- Landing Left (Left at 10): The Horse can land at a left diagonal of the jump.
- Landing right (Right at 10): The horse can land at a right diagonal of the jump.
- Willing (Willing at 30): This improves the horses mindset as to how willing he is to please a crowd or audience, this training method is to just improve how flaunt the horse can be and how willing his heart is to perform, this training does not how ever improve any moves or how he performs in the arena, it just improves his mindset in a behavior way to make it so the said horse is happy to undergo performances or dressage, and is not in anyway forced. (when training the horse to be willing remember its a slow progressive ability as your showing the horse how fun and enjoyable dressage can be for him and you as a team)

How To Train for Show Jumping
Training for Show Jumping is a very simple thing, you first need said equine then you must know what their traits are and go from there.
First rules on training are basic,
Any equine that qualifies to be a race horse must be a minimum of two years of age. They must be of full health. They must be registered in the Show Jumping discipline. Equines must also be registered with the Genus Equus Breed Federation. Find out more information about registration here.
Now lets provide an Example Equine to help make this simpler.
We have:
Now I want to train all his stats, this can take a while.
So this is how we do it.
Please fillout the following form and post in members training thread,
ONCE YOU HAVE POSTED YOUR TRAINING CARD IN THE THREAD YOU MUST NOT ALTER IT IN ANYWAY, THIS CAN ALTER THE DICE ROLL WHICH YOU THEN MAY BE ACCUSED OF CHEATING, IF YOU HAVE MADE A MISTAKE PLEASE INFORM THE DISCIPLINES VICE PRESIDENT OR PRESIDENT, OR THE DISCIPLINES TRAINER!
Training Card:
Okay this is the simple training method used to make sure no one is cheating.
I then rolled the Dice once, it has landed on a 5, that means what ever stat I just just rolled for that stat is now at 5, I now only have 5 left to do, so now I roll again, it lands on a 1 I now only have 4 left to do, I then roll again I land on a 4 I now have finished that stat. I must now wait 1 Real life day before I can train any stat again.
Stats go from 1 - 10, You must never train your horse more than 3 times a day.
You may train 3 different stats a day. For example I can only train 1 horse 3 times a day that means I can roll the dice once for one stat, then roll again for another stat, and again for another stat. this way I have trained 3 stats once, and that equals to how many times I am allowed to train a day.
Once you are happy with what you daily training has been you will then see at the end of the week an update in a spreadsheet kept by the trainers, who may send it to you of your equines progress. It may be organized like so:
As you can see once the trainer has viewed all your training throughout the week he will then update how much progression your equine is doing. Once you stat is 10/10 you trainer must then give your equine the ability and name the blue box with what ability the equine has gained in this case its obedience, and always be on atleast once a week to review his emails to update all the training that has gone on over the days.
Once your equine has done all stat training, and has selected abilities you may then enter your equine in a training show this will then rack up their experience and get them at a higher level for Show Jumping competitions over their lifetime,

You must keep the "Dice Roll" Part of the trainer card alone, this allows to randomly roll the dice 3 times, however if you are only wanting to train one stat once, you may only then delete the two other dice called "[ roll ]" once posted no other dice can be added, you must fillout a new form and lave alone the previously posted one!I then rolled the Dice once, it has landed on a 5, that means what ever stat I just just rolled for that stat is now at 5, I now only have 5 left to do, so now I roll again, it lands on a 1 I now only have 4 left to do, I then roll again I land on a 4 I now have finished that stat.
