Thanks Sirius - always interesting to see another trainers stable and to compare stats with my own.
Good luck in the league :-)

Thanks Bub. Same here I would love to see the stats of other trainers horses. I'm aiming real low this league because I didn't put much work into my horses to give me any confidence that I can actually beat the upper tier trainers. So I'm hoping for bad marks the first week and then carefully pick and choose my spots in handicaps. I'm looking to have a decent win %. I've been trialing my 2yo's at next weeks possible races and if all goes well I'll have some smartly spotted horses.

While doing this I noticed the 2yo schedule is top heavy with Group races. I would like to see it tweaked for any upcoming leagues.

In the above picture the top chart is the current 2yo race breakdown. The bottom chart is somewhere near where I would like it.

Edit - I accidentally added an extra 2 in the Group column in the top chart. Ignore that. The number is 2.

Here are my donkeys.


Most have never won a G1 Race and some have never won a race. A lot of them have very low ratings. The best distance listed in not their preferred distances. I hope they do okay.

It's nuts that they all have the same crusing burst and extra speed.
Not one of my horses are anywhere like that and all of yours are, wow.
G'luck anyone new trying to win races on the flat this season.

For me I am just waiting for the handicap races to begin - the maidens are full of top liners but they will migrate to the Group races and I don't have horses that are up to Group standard.

It's good to see Josh's stable has improved from last season!

Shall we just crown thunder the league winner and go to the pub?

My jumpers have group promise my flat horses are going to be scratching about in the handicaps :) like most i suspect I don't have one horse that looks like that, let alone a stable full of them.

Most of my horses have now have full or near full potential and the same for speed BUT as it was pointed out some months ago, I think by pjrhodes - CRUISING BURST! That is what my horses lack. If you look at Thunder's horses they have something else that I have figured is important as well - 'finishing application'.

If you're a casual player like me - it will take time - if you have much time on your hands and you want to be Group 1 then you can work on it and there are a few breeding programs floating around the forums that can speed things up.

I'm a casual player at best since 'she who knows best' moved in :), if I am lucky I get through a breeding season a month and certainly don't have the time others seem too. On the plus side i do a lot less ironing :)

Speed potential and finish application I have in spades, just never cracked crusing burst, seems less of an issue on the jumps where my focus has now moved too.

Here are a selection of mine. I don't have anything with full potential bar that got bred out a while back. Seems to make no difference as Enter Sandman won 4 group 1's. They are all for NH. My flat team is no good as I concentrate on NH and as you can see by the stats they look poor by flat terms but are all very good for NH
