Dismal finish to the season for me, picking up nothing in the last week, so disappointed and no improvement on my final figures from last season, which proves I'm consistent if nothing else :)

Well done to all who won, placed and just took part as makes for a varied league.

Due to personal circumstances, I doubt will be apart of next season much and that includes the comms, so I am sure, you will all have a sigh of relief, not having to listen to me, let alone a lot less moaning on the forums, but will try and take part in that bit as much as I can :wink:

Would do a season review but 18 winners out of 600+ entries seems immaterial compared to most :(

Thanks to all the team that make it happen, from El Jefe & Leon for the consistent work on schedules & TOM. Josh, Jim, John & Kevin who are the tireless race runners the handicappers with whom I challenge most weeks of Sirius and Gray and of course the comms team lead by Martin, Doug, Mike and Tim.

To say I got ripped off in Race 15 -- Keissi Hai Autumn Handicap -- £850000 ...would be an understatement. I have watched it numerous times and there is nothing there. Nothing! That my friends was a DQ worth half a million. Would have been the biggest check all year for this stable. Don't go looking for the stewards body, you won't find where I buried him no matter how hard you try muahahahaha :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Sorry Sirius, I know how you feel, lost 2 or 3 races this season by disqualification, this time my horse was the lucky one, but I feel for you!

A big thank you to the league team and all participants, it was a great season, many times late in the bed cause I couldn't wait to watch the races, hope you all will be back next season, really looking forward to season 5!!

The lads and lasses came through on the last day to give me my 3 wins and 100 for the season. Can’t really complain about anything. Congrats to Steve, Paul and Jim on their respective titles and all those throughout the league. My thanks too all those who make this happen.

Best start working on the wife for next season or we shall be short a race runner :)

Another fantastic season in the book. Personally, I was even worse than last season but that was to be expected given the lack of time I get to breed nowadays.

I just want to say a huge thank you to Gray and Leon, the racerunners, Sirius, the comms team, Paul for running the comps and to everyone else who plays in the league.

I will definitely be back next season as I continuously enjoy the thrill of a winner albeit they are normally 0-70s! I hope to bring back as many of my winners as possible and they will aim for the race they won this season.

I will post a season review over the next few days

So I ended the year with the most diabolical DQ I have ever been given in the league. grrrrr. half a mill' up in smoke :cry: I managed a dead heat win and nice winner in a cheapo handicap on the flat. My flat team performed pretty much as expected (a decline from last year) because I barely played the game between seasons. Final judgement = an average performance.

My jumps teams was the best one I have ever had by far. I scraped up some jumpers from my massive flat pool literally hours before the deadline. I trialed them at Cheltenham which was a first. Can't shake this feeling that that had something to do with the much improved performances from my jumpers. Maybe it didn't. Who knows? Final Judgement = Great success

Thanks again to all involved and many thanks to those who gave me kudos over the season. See you next season... with an even worse team of horses.

Its been a wonderful Season thanks to all involved who make it what it is

Flat
Been a great tussle with Steve all season and he rightly deserves the tittle.
more work needed for next season where I'm sure Steve will put up a fight to
defend his title.
Highlight - Only one of my flat horses failed to win ia race this season
m hugely proud of that

NHC
It was obvious by about half way through the season Josh was going to be
an unstoppable force and well done to him for a great season I see my 3rd in
the championship as a real success i was expecting a mid table return this season
Highlight - Seem to have unearthed a Gold Cup beast in Fort Lauderdale


Overall Highlight - Winning the Dual Code Championship its very very tough
to be competitive in both codes so I am delighted to have won it this season.

See you all next season

I'l Be Back

Very poor start on the flat quite a few running under par

2 debut winners over the sticks my 4th choice 2m hurdler
Sizing Alabama won she would be quite far behind
Sir Usain Bolt so hopefully this bodes well for him and my
2 mile hurdlers this season.

My number 1 2m4 chaser Goldielocks just got up to win on debut
too a little worrying it took all of 2m6 to get to the leader when she will be
racing mainly over 2m4 anyway delighted to get off the mark in the NHC


Congrats to the winners and placers

great comms as always

and a huge thanks to the team

It's great to be back

Nice opening day for me with 4 wins, though seems my jumps team, dispite having virtually no work done on them will be my mainstay again.

Flat team, who got all the work between seasons, showed some promise though with 2x2nds and 2x3rds to go with the single win.

Think there will be some new names challenging top honours this season and a more even distribtuion of winners, with a few of the top tier looking like they have 'downed tools' and a lot from lower and mid tier doing the hard graft inbetween.
