It's a slow process. don't stress over it, lol
Try feeding your BP horses 100% corn in a barn. Maybe you can pull them out of BP. But if they were born BP that might not work. I always make a note in my horses comments as to what temp they were born. It rarely changes from BP but it has happened and if I have a real good foal with otherwise good stats I try to pull them out of BP.
If the stats are high enough they can sometimes overcome being bombproof. But HGP needs to be north of 63k; preferably in the 70's and Speed and stamina need good strong gold comments. And you need to pick your competitions carefully.
If Thoughtful Kisses has a colt and you'd rather a filly we can try again.

I'm sorry it took me so long to reply back. I was busy creating a freezer account for my two OLDEST arabian mares. Trying to preserve them. I have changed their food to corn. I hope that will help. I feel like I have nice thoroughbred stock so far, just not right temperament for racing. I will be happy no matter what Thoughtful Kisses has. I have to say trying to manage all of these account is a mental challenge. Starting over with a new breed and goals is a challenge as well. I appreciate your help. I am just trying to decide if what I have is worth keeping, or if I should sell some of them.

Even though they might not be good in racing events they may do well in other events so you might want to keep working on them for that. refer to the link i gave with Frosts suggestions. for competition. She gives the conformation number breakdown for each event. it's very helpful.

Here are the Conformation scores that might help you choose:

No, thank You!! I saw Dusty Duchess I had to have her. You have become like my fairy God-mother on here.! I appreciate everything you have done so far. It has taken me a little bit to reply. I will definitely look over those links you sent me to better understand it all. it's sad because I rehomed a bunch not knowing their conformation. So this is a great blessing. I'd like to downsize some, but not sure who sell?

[emorrison787]

So according to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... 1182302007 this chart my stallion RAB GODSPEED is allot higher than I was told. He was trained and the trainer gave me his conformation numbers.. with speed at 40. But this shows a different number. So is this chart not accurate?

[Horsechronicles12]

Yup, no prob

The 178 is from Psalms 17:8 "Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings,"

Ha! I have the same problem; that's why you see so many horses on all my accts! i hate parting with any of my horses. I usually see something good and useful in them all, It's very hard making that decision. and I would not presume to make suggestions to anyone else
I do have one tiny suggestion...One thing I noticed while watching how great your doing in competitions is Knight is getting too fat! To keep his good scores in speed events he has to stay lean. Thin to Moderately Thin is best. Most people keep them in barns and on frozen acct so they stay at exactly the weight and temperature that is ideal for their particular sport. If you want to keep him just as a pet then that's OK too, no problem; but if you want to compete in racing then he needs to be kept at Thin/Mod-thin. In a barn, frozen to do his best. Since each time you make a day turn on your farm those amounts will change.
I hope Duchess does well for you. She should give you colorful babies. I'm not into breeding for color per-se; I mostly look at HGP, breeder reports and conformation scores; but sometimes it happens as a pleasant surprise.
Oh, and no worries if you don't respond quickly, everyone does have a life outside of HWO not to mention that just maintaining your HWO farms takes time too.
I won't go lurking around your farms anymore [unless asked] so if you need conformation score just post a link here and I'll get them for you.

I moved knight over there to try to up my savings. I literally have 12k on my freezer account not even enough to buy a barn yet. I will work on getting his weight down. I may end up moving him again. I just brought him there to just to earn some money from competitions. The chart you sent me a link of with scores, doesn't seem to match up with the conformations scores I have previously gotten. Have you noticed that? Or is it a different scoring? or just unreliable? I thank you for getting those numbers for me.

That spreadsheet is to show the value of each *breeder comment*, not conformation score.
they help when determining just what the breeder reports value is.
As you already know Gold comments are better than Green or no color. This chart is color coded to each comment and give the value of each. Sort of tells how good any good comment is. Or how bad, depending on your personal goals; helpful when choosing breeding partners as well as determining who to keep, and/or train.
When determining speed both the conformation score [40 for example] plus the breeder comment counts.
GOLD comments range in value Racecar comment being the highest, then secretariate, wind, flash, etc. according to the spreadsheet. Those very high comments are given to the very best speed horses; quite rare. Much more common are the comments "fastest on 4 legs, amazing natural speed, faster than lightning, like lightning, natural born race horse, eats up the ground, unbelievably fast, very fast, pretty fast..... Given in the order of best to least GOLD comments.
The chart shows all the known Gold, Green, No color, and Red comments
For racing you want the best GOLD or GREEN comments in Speed and Stamina you can get

I hope this explains the spreadsheet a bit more. It can be very useful along with Frost's guide.

[ImaCountryGirl]

I have been in the same situation. Since I don't compete very much I don't have alot of cash on most acct.
I will sometimes move/ 'sell' a horse from one acct. where I have more money to the poor acct. when it needs it.
I spend lots of time transferring horses around
PS....Also you probably already have done this but going through all the beginner quests on the new acct will help a lot with money and pony tokens as well as experience pts.
Maybe move your special horses you want to save to another acct while you upgrade the new acct some.

Thank you for explaining that. I will definitely keep this chart and look my arabians over and see what their numbers are. They seem to have really good breeder comments. Raid-A-Bandit has 87.5 speed and 90.7 stamina (breeder comment score) lol and his intelligence score is almost perfect at 97.8. That is very encouraging. Sadly I wish my horses lived longer. I didn't mean to ask the same question over and over. We just have so many forums going on all of my accounts that I am getting confused on which reply is where.

Yup, like I said before your Arabians are super nice quality, I've used Raid-A-Bandit, love him. I always take a second look when I see one of yours I can tell you put a lot of thought into your breeding.
Now that you have a freezer acct. you can keep all you special ones there. Up to 211 horses if you want
Your not asking the same over again, I didn't see the question about stud right away till I saw what you said here. I put him up for you.
I don't visit that other farm as much since I switched to Racing and Thoroughbreds.
