Traits
In case you wonder what the red numbers on the horses' pages mean, here it is:
Every horse is naturally performing better in a show type, and also has a small bonus on a skill.
The specs trait means that your horse has a 10% bonus for a certain show type.
The skill trait means that your horse has a 10% bonus on a certain skill.
These bonuses are added to whatever skills/specs your horse has.
When you buy a store horse, they are randomly selected.
When a new foal is born, it will inherit the way the skills are shared on its parents.
The traits of a foal (both specs and skills) have can be inherited from the dam, from the sire or simply the best combination of the parents' skills/specs.
So if both sire and dam have their trait on dressage, the foal will inherit that.
If the sire and the dam have their skills assigned in a similar pattern, the foal will inherit that also.
Anyway, more on that will be in the FAQ.
