Are the Horses Fun For Most, or Frustrating?

- The rewards have been devalued because you can buy the decos and avatars with gold.
- The level rewards (especially Diamond) are less than they used to be, too.
- The "odds" have always been a joke. I would like to see more realism there, like a 30% chance of losing when you have 80/20 odds of winning and are challenged instead of the current 50-70% chance of losing.
- I have been told that there are no limits to how often you can be challenged in a day. I am personally tired of being challenged 30 or more times a day. (Today, I was challenged 10 times in 4 hours alone.)
- I see the same names in my queue, day after day.
The horses were once one of my favorite parts of the game because there was strategy with training and breeding. The randomness, worse rewards, and ability to buy super horses, horseshoes, and skip training with gold have painted the horses in a poor light. Speaking of which, what became of the excellent suggestion to have more color choices for the horses?
The horses seem like a pitiful reward for all that is required. I was lucky enough to be around when the horses began, which was a huge advantage. I think it is high time for a revamp to have more rewards and fun! How about a daily reward for challenging George, Lester, or Tessa? How about new colors? How about more realism with the odds and a wider variety of players in the queues to challenge? How about a reasonable limit of 20-25 challenges in a day?
Any other ideas?

I am not sure why GGS has chosen to devalue the horse tournaments, but they have done so, and the end result is that the effort and time to breed and train good horses hardly seems worth the bother any more.
Very sad, very sad indeed.
GGS is missing a good opportunity by leaving the main farm and ranch connected.
When I started a second farm, I never touched the horses. It's all just too - as you say - frustrating.
......
The glitch that cause a reset for some players and a reward for all players to fix the so called problem destroyed the horses.
For me I have a 25% win to a 75% lose ever since they started.
If the numbering system for the quality of your horse has no meaning why should we strive to train a horse? On an average I get challenged about 25-30 times per day and I've started checking on the horses that beat me. For the most part they have training points that are at least 15-100 points higher then mine but then there is that ringer that comes in with 130 and whips the horse with 306 points come one now that's a little stupid.
I agree the rewards should reflect the effort put into maintaining and breeding horses as much as it goes into ensuring that the temp farms have to be used to get the horse shoes to breed the horses. There has to be some type of compromise on GGS's part to make this game what it should be as apposed to what they want it to be,
As to the rewards whenever there is a race tournament I reach and stay in which ever league gives out gold or gold licenses it's that simple cause GGS has decided that gold is king. I'm all for getting it when I can.
