I'm pretty sure it's a minimum of 3 runs with at least 1 of them being over 4m or more.

Also do they have to be chase races to qualify for the GN?
Personally I think one of those three races should be.

All 3 runs must be Chases as its handicapped on chase form 1 run must be over 4miles.

Still grumpy I missed the 7yo rule, though I have a sneaking suspicion I voted for it :)

Trying to decide if I can be bothered to breed more long distance nags, with both my national horses being 6yo.

It's an old rule but just after some clarity.

No clones - Are we allowed horses with the same parents but one is male and one is female?

Author:  pjrhodes1970 [ Tue Jun 05, 2018 6:20 am ]
Post subject:  Re: National Hunt League Rules 2018

I would have thought same parents regardless if they are male or female
If you allowed one male one female they are still clones what would be the point of the rule

Now, I don't like to moan :wink:

But can we look at the sched. Gray on the NH this week (11) for next season (if one) 14 races 2-2.2m seems a little lop-sided with only 4 x 3-3.1m races (3 of those being G1's)

Thanks
