So, I'm sure someone has done this before but I wanted to give it a go myself. I am starting with two sets of store bought Quarter Horses. One pair is on an upgraded account and will get only enter all shows. The second pair will be on a basic account and have hand picked shows. I want to see how much difference there is between basic and upgraded training. I thought it could be fun to watch and see and share my results here. So each week, after all of that weeks shows have run, I'll post their points here so that everyone can see how it goes. :) Here are the accounts the horses are on: Quarter Horse Experiment - Upgraded Quarter Horse Experiment - Basic *Special notes: The first major difference is basic accounts only get 70 shows a week vs. 80 shows that upgrades get. This also means they only get 28,000 entrance points vs. 32,000 entrance points. Week 1: Upgraded Mare: 97,980 Upgraded Stallion: 102,470 Basic Mare:Β 108,200 Basic Stallion:Β 101,180 Week 2: Upgraded Mare: 189,630 Upgraded Stallion: 196,790 Basic Mare: 208,960 Basic Stallion: 171,880 Week 3: Upgraded Mare: 292,440 Upgraded Stallion: 281,480 Basic Mare: 272,560 Basic Stallion: 253,620 Week 4: Upgraded Mare: 382,610 Upgraded Stallion: 382,630 Basic Mare: 360,660 Basic Stallion: 336,400 Week 5: Upgraded Mare: 488,140 Upgraded Stallion: 472,910 Basic Mare: 458,620 Basic Stallion: 446,640 Week 6: Upgraded Mare: 584,530 Upgraded Stallion: 564,370 Basic Mare: 549,020 Basic Stallion: 545,100 Week 9: Upgraded Mare:Β 927,800 Upgraded Stallion:Β 940,070 Basic Mare:Β 905,820 Basic Stallion:Β 905,600 |

This week the upgraded pair soared ahead. The upgraded mare took the lead by gaining about 100k total points, upgraded stallion gained 84k, basic mare earned 63k, while the basic stallion stays in last place gaining 81k. It's also interesting to note that placing 1stΒ - 5th in a show seemingly has little effect on points. Below I have listed the total places for each and you'll see this is not showing in the points. Upgraded stallion: 12 Upgraded mare: 6 Basic stallion: 15 Basic mare: 10 |

updated my scores, my hand picked show horse got around 30k more than the enter all high priced horse. I did bump them up to 100 energy this week so we will see how it goes. |

I'm a little late getting up the results but here they are. Nothing too exciting. The upgraded pair remains in the lead and I don't think that will really change. Β Insom - the difference between hand picked and enter all is pretty big! |

Insom- that is crazy how much more it has. lol It's coming up on the heels of mine that are 2 weeks ahead. (p.s. my week 5 results are up and the basic account are slowly lagging further behind the upgraded pair) |
