You have been chosen to study at the Hoof Academy, known for their jumping focused trainer program. Ride lessons to expand your knowledge and put your skills to the test in riding exams. Read up on equine theory to earn an A+ on your tests. Gain practical experience by training horses to improve their skills. If you wish to reach graduation, follow the designed degree and prove your expertise to the instructors.
Own horses and look after them at the academy stables. Prepare for training with satisfying horse care brushing and filling feed buckets. Adjust to your taste by taking on extra care jobs or outsourcing all of it to stable hands. Watch your equine friends show their appreciation for getting pampered.
Jump a course in the arena, gallop in the cross country fields or go for a relaxed bareback trail ride. The in-depth riding mechanics draw inspiration from real riding, including canter leads, realistic striding on jumps and preserving the horse's energy on a course. Tailor how you ride each horse based on their temperament and skills. Choose your preference to ride in third or first person.
Riding the training exercises with accuracy and good timing greatly affects how the horse learns from them. Getting the most out of a training session is not about repetition, but sharpening your own skills and directing the horse's limited focus on good execution. Help your own and client horses reach their full potential, and prove yourself in show jumping and cross country competitions.
Design training routines using the handy builder. Place riding patterns such as voltes and serpentines to practice agility and strength, or focus on jumping with a custom show jumping course. Collaborate with the community by sharing routines using easy text input.
Shop for new horses or sell yours at the Hightrail Horse Market. Keep an eye on their daily changing themes and choose the next member of the herd from a wide variety of looks and backgrounds. Go for a quick test ride at the market's arena before making a decision.
Visit the academy's own Tiny Tack Shop to purchase new items to your collection. Give each of your horses a unique look in the tack room by customizing their tack set and styling their mane, tail and forelock separately.
