Account statement
Every movement in your wallet in detail, newest first. This is your bank account.
The menu group carries your balance at all times, by the way: there is no need to open this page to know it.
Reading a line
Three columns: the date, the withdrawal, the credit. Under each entry, a second line gives the account — the nature of the movement — and the transaction, its detail: a horse's name, a race's name, a username.
It is that second line which makes the statement useful. “Owner-Registration” followed by the name of a race tells you exactly which entry cost what.
The two buttons
Give sulkies sends a sum to another player, who loses 10% of it on the way. Sulkies transfer moves your own sulkies from one world to another, with the same 10% tax on arrival. Both go through the same window: see Give sulkies.
The filters
The account, which isolates one nature of movement, the transaction, which searches the detail — a horse's name, a username —, and the world.
The world filter is not decorative: you have one wallet per world, with its own balance and its own entries. Changing world in the filter means reading another till. See Change world.
Where sulkies come from, without paying anything
This is what a beginner needs to know, and the statement is where it can be seen.
8,000 sulkies at your first connection of the day, and that on every world: going round all three earns 24,000 sulkies a day, for merely turning up. The line appears under the Shop-Free account, and a message announces it.
After that, the game pays: the prize money your horses win, your shares as trainer, jockey or breeder on other people's horses, your sales, your matings, your betting winnings, a manager's bonuses. All of it is read here, account by account.
And where they go
The items to watch are few and always the same: race entries, the daily care costs beyond ten horses, purchases of horses and matings, betting stakes.
A balance melting away for no apparent reason is almost always the care costs: filter on that account and you will have your answer. See Being an owner.
And watch the balance: a negative account has your horses seized. It is the game's only automatic penalty, and it is avoidable — it is enough to look at this page from time to time.
The statement does not go back far: seven days
This is the thing to know before you need it. The statement is detailed but short: entries older than a week are erased. So you will not find in it the price you paid for a horse last month, nor a betting stake from a fortnight ago.
What survives is the monthly summary: Accountancy keeps one year of totals by nature of movement. The two screens are therefore complementary rather than redundant — one says what exactly for a week, the other says how much in all for a year.
In practice: if a sum puzzles you, look at once. And if you keep serious accounts for your stable, note your figures as you go, not at the end of the month.
