How Horse Training & Conditioning works in SkillScorer
Score
Each rider in a stable is scored on the Horse Training & Conditioning skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank riders, compare two side by side, or compare your stables against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Horse Training & Conditioning skills need attention. Reports also follow each head trainer's stable.
