I am an adult player from the UK.
I don't take this game too seriously, and do not plan on playing to win. I only breed horses with high genetics and have a couple of breeds that i like, for example, Thoroughbreds, Tennessee Walkers etc and don't keep horses that don't reach the level of genetics that i was after.
I have had my own horses for many years and work with them at a high level capacity with high level organisations (English riding)
I played this many moons ago and just discovered it again recently and play on my down time
