Really love this game, i would only ask for better graphics for races if thats possible (just a small improvement like the jump from FM24 to FM26). I have one issue with this game, it has no AutoSave (weekly it should be) that im aware of, and everynow and then my game will just quit and i lose all my progress up to that moment. In another save that ive loved playing aswell, the game just stops (around 2055-2060) i wanted to continue and breed the horses and keep going- not die!, when this happens, i also didnt get a notification, the game just turns off and i lose all progress?? Any help would be appreciated for Auto Save feature to avoid these issues and how i can continue my faveroute save around the year 2060
Game has the right level of difficulty even on "Easy" so keeps your interest. Graphics are pretty good considering the age of the game and I would take playability every time over graphics

a good game to pass the time
great game tough but very realistic
The actual sim for all things around horses, gambling, racing, tricking, breeding, and more. What a fantastic game! Takes a few hours to learn how to race your horses, but once you learn how to read your horses and pair them to races, its competitive and fun!
I Love This Game So Much, I Don't Like Touch, That UI Is Too Colourful Too Busy, I Beg For A Starters Orders 8 and for it to me more UI friendly like this one, 9.5/10 game
