Stable/Home Menu

This menu represents the players Stable or (in the case of Punter Matches) Home. The menu buttons on the navigation bar towards the left of the screen allow the player to access vital sub menu's that allow the player to view databases, view and modify horse training schedules, improve stable facilities, enter owned horses into future races etc.

In Standard game mode the top window contains details of any owned horses. If the horse has been entered for a race then the next race entry details will also be displayed here (PINK indicates the race is taking place today). Clicking on the horse name will display the individual horses DATA screen. The STATUS icons indicate your head lads assessment of the horses readiness to race. Red indicates the horse is not ready, amber indicates not quite ready and green indicates the horse is ready to race. A small 'I' icon indicates that the horse is currently recovering from an injury. If a small yellow arrow exists in the table header you may sort the table by clicking on the header.

The centre window details the days race meetings and some racecourse data for the selected meeting. Note that further racecourse data (including course records) can be viewed by clicking on the RACECOURSES menu button towards the left of the screen. The player may click on the small BETTING SLIP icon (in the TODAYS MEETINGS window) to place a pre-meeting single or multiple bet. If a feature race is listed in the RACECOURSE window then clicking on the race name will reveal any past results for that specific race.

The bottom window contains the runners and riders for the selected meeting (if more than one meeting are to take place select a meeting by clicking the specific meeting bullet point). As usual the player may click on any of the YELLOW items in this table to access more data on the selected item (in this case the FORM, HORSE, JOCKEY or TRAINER). The contents of this window can be scrolled via the mouse wheel or by holding left mouse button and dragging the scroll bar.

When the player is ready to go visit the current days race meeting(s) then either GO RACING or SKIP DAY should be clicked. If the player has declared a horse to run then a SKIP-NEXT DEC button will appear. Click this button to fast-forward to the date of the players next declared horse. 

Note to novice players: In Standard Game mode the player will probably want to begin entering his horses in future races. To do this click on the DECLARATIONS button.
