Re: Need 1 confo done so I can continue
Thanks for explaining.BlackOak2 wrote:heart falter, just means that the competition heart of your horse may not be strong enough to overcome the competition. They (the infamous 'They') refer to it as a faltering heart. But it can also mean a horse that get's their competition heart broken by another horse. Specifically in racing, two horses, one with more heart but less talent keeps winning races regularly, comes up against a horse with more talent (regardless of heart). They're smart enough animals sometimes to know when they're beaten. Sometimes, when a horse with strong heart but perhaps less talent, sees a horse that is their better by a wide degree, they loose the desire to race thereafter. Sometimes it's referred to as faltering heart or breaking the heart.Sawd10 wrote: I honestly don't think I have much that fits what you said.
Thank you!Yeah, it took a while to breed him.
What's with the 'heart falter' and stuff? I never heard of that on here?
Found this on the market, though probs not what you want:

Since we 'may or may not have' the competition heart here on HWO, the use of the faltering heart (and not the broken heart) against stronger competition can be offered as a term describing a horse that just can no longer beat competition that is just too strong to overcome.
Thank you for cruising the market in search... but this horse's confo scores are in the opposite direction of what I want with that level of HGP. Plus the no color in the report... he might prove a really decent grinder, but won't work for my bloodline.

Yes, of course!
