Management, Sandbox and other Q regarding gameplay.
Having played Starters Order in the past I would like to ask if there is a way to have a 'sandbox career' experience with stable, races and breeding management? I am not particullary interested in the racing (arcade) part of the gameplay and I was wondering if the management part offer enough. Also is there a way to simulate races and have our hired jokey to run them without our own interference? If so can we set some general race strategies before the race like in SO7?
Thanks

With your first question about management, it's difficult to answer whether you would find it satisfying as everyone's expectations will be different. One option could be to try the mobile version of the game as a sort of "test drive" -- the stable management elements are experientially similar in the mobile version, expect in the Steam version there are not the content restrictions present in the free-to-play mobile version.
As for the jockeys, there is an option in game to hire a jockey to run races for you. Between choosing more vs less elite jockeys and choosing horses based on their stats/skills to suit the requirements of the race, you can customize the jockey outcomes without playing through the race itself.

Is there a limit to career/stable mode? ie does it end after a certain amount of time? Does the game track your stable records and stats through years?

The game looks awful pretty but I guess a few of us are wondering on the sim depth and scope. Looking forward to seeing some youtubers take it for a spin.

It's not as deep as Starter's Orders, so don't go into that thinking it is.

HOWEVER. It's most definitely accessible (way more so than Starter's Orders), and you can easily get settled into the flow of managing your horses and racing, without the F2P economy the only real limitation is either you screwing up and shorting yourself for money to enter the more profitable races (and even then you're literally showered with gold every couple of minutes to help with that) or your own patience for running races yourself.
