So the thing with horse is the Corp always purges. Otherwise it's better casts. How much better?
casts=+5 after 4 turns, +6 if sold with Aesop's
stable=+4 after 3 turns, +7 with Aesop's
This isn't taking into account install cost reductions or extra counters. May value horse here is +14... .[O_O].
If they purge though, stable=+/-0 in the average case. The extra turn is good but other cards also get that without risking a tempo hit.

ENTER progenitor.
when you sell and deja back the horse post-purge that's when they realize they should've rushed. Remotes get broken by crypsis with prog doin double duty to nullify the mid-run dex
HRR & Hades are flex slots but they're kinda insane too... hades let's you play mind games to fish for jacksons and hrr makes up for -2 lamp to dial up the pressure on mid-late central runs

It’s more like Termite > Medium and Stable > Lamprey with HRR filling the role of lamprey/medium in combination with either Imp or ‘mite (by making them double ICE HQ and R&D) |

Nah, purge protection is the thing that matters. I would try cutting prog for a scheherazade and another HRR maybe, then going down to 1 horse and a daily casts. Need to go back to the drawing board |
Termite over Lamprey? interesting
