After walking through the long stable corridor and the cosy tack room, you come to a dead end at the stable corridor. "Go up these stairs to get to the viewing area. You find a place to sit and watch some horses being trained. It can be enjoyable at times. I have alot of work to do at the moment, so it would be great for both of us for you to take a look." She walks off. Deciding that it would be fun to watch, you walk up the stairs. Quickly you find a place to sit close to the arena. In the middle of the arena there stands a small blond girl, holding a rope attatched to a beautiful grey stallions halter. A whip in the other hand, the girl makes a series of noises which the stallion seems to follow. Seldomly she uses the whip to make him go forward. But when the girl spots you, she asks the stallion to halt, walks up to him and takes off his halter. The stallion gladly bounces off for a good run around the arena. "Hi! I'm Kim, the trainer here. Do you have a horse you wish to train? I'll explain everything to you." She says as she sits down next to you with a note book and a blunt pencil. "The training fee is small, but if you want to train your horse to a high level, then it might get expensive. When there are competitions, there are different levels in each event. Dressage, there are two: Novice and Advanced. Cross-Country; th same. The same goes for show jumping. But if you want to show your horse, then no points are needed in any feild. All that matters is what the crowd thinks of your horse. In flat racing, you need a minimum of 5 pts to enter, then it's all up to the dice! :)

"So why don't I just skip all the training and enter all Novice classes instead of Advanced!?" You ask. "Well, in Novice, the biggest prize is 5 golden Horse Shoes. In Advanced, it is 10 Golden Horse Shoes. 10 Golden Horse Shoes will get you anything you want; a breeding, a custom horse, free training....anything! So if your horse can only compete at Novice levels, you are going to haveto save up you Horse Shoes for a long time! Well, I haveto continue training my horse, but don't worry, you'll get to know more about the competitions once they are on." She smiles and walks off to get her stallion.
