"Very good" horses have 15 points less than it would have ig it was an excelant. Just like other horses, they can be awesome or flop entirely.
You can have 2 "excellant" parents and still get a "very good" foal, just not as often. With 1 "excellant" and 1 "very good" i beleive its 50/50
Foundies are "excellant"

I have been trying to study the x-ray scores. So if you have any other questions feel free to PM me 😁

As a returning player too, I totally get the struggle.
I've been at a loss for how important x-ray scores are too. Like if "very goods" should just be retired or if they can still do fine. I do know that my oldest "very good" horse is not doing very well compared to the rest if that says anything. That's only one horse though.

So, from my experience.
Very good is a hit or miss. I've had a 98 jumper who had a "very good" score ( *Cillian Murphy)
As far as I know, Cillian never produced a foal with an excellent score rating. However, he is the great-grandsire of Queen of the Damned. Her high jump as of now is 100.5 at age 20. She has an excellent x-ray score rating. Had she been a full super, 60/60 instead of 52/60, I feel she could have potentially hit 102 at least.
My second highest jumper produced, Polar Perfect, is out of a "Very Good" rated mare who only hit 85. ( Almost Perfect)
So as far as the scores themselves, I'm finding if it has a score between 400-420, you'll see them reach at least 89-91. 430-440 about 92-95, 450-560 about 96-98, anything about that has seemed to have the potential to hit 99-100.
When looking at a foal, personally look at the lines. Are they solid? Do they have solid jumps for that period of time in the game? I also look at any other offspring directly related to the foal or potential foal when considering breeding.
All in all, it's about personal preference and what you have available to work with.

Valaroso, those are scores based around 9-13. My horses personally tend not to improve after that age. Polar Perfect is the only exception I have to that as she was saddled late.

I won't keep a very good. I find them to stubborn.
You can also guarantee you breed a pair it has the best dna and it will be a very good too. Makes me cry lol.
