It's an issue even with the gold. Rival is a money-grubbing game of the worst kind. I just got an offer to buy a horse for £43.99. That's the same price as the yearly subscription on HHWA, but in Rival that money would just give me one horse that doesn't even have perfect stats, so any horse I breed has potential to be better than the one worth over £40.

The game was originally released on PlayStation and Xbox, with additional features (like betting on which horse wins, which will help you earn money faster), more stall space and longer story too. The mobile version is basically the console game Lite, except the mobile game has been built purely around the microtransactions, making it very cumbersome and repetitive to play for those who don't want to pay lots of money every month.
