With too much time spent talking about those at the top of the league, lets introduce the "King of the Hunter" trophy just for those NH trainers that have more success at the lower end of the scale in hunter chases and the title no one wants...... (although a win is a win in this league )

So the leader board so far looks like this after week 7


With a further 15 races to be contended Martin sits pretty at the top of the bottom in the NH

I don't mind winning this especially now the Commentators Championship is gone Although I doubt I will still be on top at the end.

This should be an interesting comp

how come im not in this

I wish Kores Des Obeaux had never ran on the f;at now, she'd have a few of these in her!!!. Got to rely on All Guns Firing now

Week 8 passes and Martin Leedham extends his lead after taking 2 of the 3 Hunter Chases this week, Daniel French moves into 2nd on his own by picking up the other, 4 hunters in week 9 so plenty to play for....




P.s Look out for the Seasonal Charity Cheltenham Comp next week...

So after Week 9, Martin still leads with 7 wins after collecting another win this week, David Robertson pops straight onto the leaderboard after collecting 2 wins and Daniel French picking up the last.



With three Hunters next week on Day 2 still time to catch the current King of the Hunter, Martin.

With all the excitement of Cheltenham, 3 Hunters finished Day 2 of the NH league and with Martin drawing a blank for the 1st time in a long while, allowing Daniel French who collected 1 win to close the gap at the top of the leader board. The other two races went to Hunter King newbies, Del Hinton and Craig aka Hemz Allen.

This weeks 3 Hunter Chases, just shared between two trainers with Daniel French hitting the winning enclosure twice and finally joins Martin at the top of the leader board with 7 wins a piece, Alex picking up the other win and moves him up to 3rd.




With 5 Hunters next week and just the one in week 13 next week could decide it.....

Daniel is flying down the outside Martin is going to have to dig deep and grind it out

even my horses are too poxy to compete in this but all good fun ha

STEWARDS ENQUIRY !!!!

Sligo is not a point to point track Daniels 2 winners this week shouldn't count

Only joking, should be a fun end to this competition.

With just one Hunter left next week, Martin sneaks the lead with his Hennessy winning horse "White Rum" and 4 other trainers shared the other races, Hemz & Alex and newbies to the board James Shea & Gray.

So with the last race of the season on the NH being the only hunter chase next week, Daniel needs to win to be able to share the title (we can't have Martin winning outright, please! )

I count three 28, 29 & 38 so everything to play for

& what fine arithmetic you have Josh thanks for spotting.

Only Gray would split them up on the Schedule so I will pass the blame (of course)

As Josh points out there is 3 races to go, so thats much more likely that we can stop Martin......
