I wish one of these companies would let me make the horses they use for the game. I'd make a few thousand of them based on real horses who've run over the last 120 years.
I'd also be able to get them squared away with the right fractional differences from track-to-track and surface to surface. I could have a field day doing a whole lot of geeky stuff like that with the game.

I loved that game. And you're right with the tendencies/running styles, there were opportunities to steal races on the lead and so on. The only thing I didn't like (besides the jump races) were the tracks that had an uphill in the stetch. I used to play that game for hours (this is when I had plenty of time to kill)  .
