Post Major gamble landed 13 million in profit
battered the bookies in my game my horse pentallino was unraced over jumps but had won multiple g1s on flat and i knew
he would be a good novice hurdler an knew he would win if i held him up and challenge early it all fell into place and he zoomed past
to land a big gamble if he lost or fell i would be skint ha ha just a bit of fun

No I'm not Australian unfortunately Tomas, beautiful country would love to visit one day and see all the sites like Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Great Barrier Reef just to name a few.
Glad you like the variety of names included, I just wanted to have a game where it felt great to race against great horses from different nationalities.
I hope that Mark expands the database from 10,000+ horse names to over 40,000+ I would gladly do another name database and include horses like; Gloaming who won 19 successive races in New Zealand and Australia.
:D

Gloaming is a great horse your right exxplozion, but tell me how did you find these great horse names of the trotters from the 70's, we were in harness racing in the 70's and I tell you what, I have watched some great clashes between these titans mate, the Miracle Mile, Inter-Dominion, they were the days exxplozion for both harness racing & the thoroughbreds mate, by the way it's great to see you back lad, it's always good to read your posts.

It's good to be back Tomas and thank you for those kind words. As for where I found the names of the trotters from the 70's I just typed in different wordings into Google and searched until I found what I was looking for. I have no specific site that I go to but when SO5 comes out, next year I reckon, I will do another name database that will feature more horses from across the globe...past and present. :shock:

Basically at those prices you could have backed both horses to guarantee a profit!!!!
