My prof talks a lot about Quarter Horses/Quarter Horse racing because those are the horses he jockeyed and mostly what he trains now. So I started putting this together:
themeadows.boards.net/
It would be similar to TW affiliated to GHF, but as a complete side site to here, workouts wouldn't be judged on. Judging would just be based off of the other stuff. That being said, it could potentially run on a more accelerated schedule since works wouldn't come into play? Idk, I could literally just play around there by myself, but I thought others might be interested just like, during the slower periods here. Also I'm a busybody and apparently have to have things to do while I procrastinate more important things.
Another reason it'd be more abbreviated than here is that there is only one surface, dirt, and the length preferences would be 300-400 yards, 400-500 yards, and 800-900 yards (because those are the only length intervals that Quarter Horses race regularly on). So fewer races and such. The grades would be Maiden, Starter Allowance, Allowance, Grade 3, Grade 2, Grade 1. I wouldn't be going by actual Starter Allowance and Allowance standards, because that's super complicated, so it'd just be the same as G5 and G4 basically because the leveling up will be done the same with race wins.
But yeah, just thought I'd throw it out if anyone else is interested :D Otherwise I'll just make ponies and race them against each other on my own time xD Obviously it's not done but if you'd like to take a look, that's cool :D
