Buy a horse at the sale

At the Shin-Tokyo Horse Market sale, you can bid on horses and buy them. The admins put horses up for sale as events, one at a time.

In the “Business” tab, go to the page of Shin-Tokyo Horse Market Corporation (K.K.) and open “🔨 Sale ring”. You can also open it from “Go to the sale” in My horses.
Choose a horse and place a bid. If it has a buy-now price, you can win it right away at that price.
When the sale ends, the highest bidder wins.

The sale for each horse lasts 10 minutes to 5 days. Each sale has a set opening price.
Your bid is held. If someone else bids higher, it is returned to you.
In the last 5 minutes, each new bid extends the sale by 5 minutes.
AI investors bid too. Each AI has its own assessment, and drops out when the price goes above it. They sometimes buy at the buy-now price.
How a horse is shown differs from horse to horse. Some also come with their sire, dam and a description.
- Numbers (ability and potential are shown as numbers)
- Grades (S–G)
- Assessment only (rating, distance, turf/dirt; it may be off)
You can bid only while the company is operating (while it is suspended, you can only look). Guests can't take part.
The money goes to the Shin-Tokyo Horse Market company. Unsold horses debut as regular racehorses.
