There are a couple issue currently with how grading up (increasing showing grade) works for horses currently, and we're opening up a conversation here for some potential changes to how the system is handled. This discussion is being held here in the forums so that everyone a chance to participate if desired, and so we can collectively develop a consensus on the topic.

I like the idea of Manual Grade-Up system. My biggest concern is upgrading bunch of horses at same time. Stat Boost for 5+ horses are already pain to do so. It would be nice to have "Grade Up # Horses" and "Boost # Horses" option so I don't have to manually click on every single horse.

I really like the idea of a manual upgrade. With currently over 400 horses, I don't currently find it all that arduous to run through and hit all my stat boosts for the day. I actually like it, because it gives me a chance to look at my horses from time to time. And, it seems like it would be really rewarding to see how many of my horses broke into a new showing grade each day. Also could be a handy reminder for those who like to put horses in riding schools when they are in the bottom half of their stat range for their showing grade - there will be no missing it when a horses needs to switch from shows to the riding school.

So long as there's an icon (like the stat boosts) to grade up, I would agree with it. That way I can do them while I go through my divisions. I'm one of the people putting their horses through lower grades while showing (sometimes with a horse that's +20 stats over the grade) so that they show better, but I wouldn't mind keeping it all fair. c: A 'grade all horses up' button would be awesome too, if only to save time for people like me with a mass number of horses.

- Will this be linked with training boosts (i.e.: horse can't enter shows if a training boost is waiting)? Otherwise you will still have the issue of horses over stats in the show.

No, it won't be linked with training boosts in any way, shape, or form. I simply used that as a way of explaining how it would work, because the concept is very similar.

I don't really like this idea, I riding school my horses unless their stats are higher than they should be for that grade, which gives them an advantage in shows. So I don't want to take away that advantage.

I like the idea of a manual grade up system. Would make it easier to keep track of each horse's progression. Maybe make it with the ''Progress All'' as an option - so you can use that if you feel that's more to your liking

I am all for this as I do visit every horse every day. I boost each when they are due I can hit a second button while I am right there :))

It's a good decision, I think, and it doesn't seem too hard to progress a large number of horses because it's a rare occasion when all horses move to the next grade in the same moment.

I have about 500 horses i go through each day. I have stopped training them because it is so taking to hit that button. It would be ok if i had fast internet.... but i live here in Montana and sometimes it takes forever to load the horses page. I am always going through and pairing my horses up, looking at their stats, and documenting their progress. I really don't need a reason to look at my horses any more then I already do haha. anyway, I would rather not see an option like the training one. I would rather see an option to train (for shows and training) all the horses in the division selected. The button clicking process started out ok, but with all these new updates there are more and more things to click and it is becoming taxing. Thanks for asking us about this btw.

I'm not sure I understand what the exact issue is with the existing system. From what I understand it progresses something like this:
