Whilst we're at it, I assume a bumper runner can migrate to hurdles just not the other way round. I can see a 'Sutherland fires assistant trainer' story in the making

Once a horse has run over hurdles Josh it is can't no longer run in Bumpers even if I start my horse off in a bumper and then down the line run it over obstacles it can no longer run in Bumpers sorry m8 hurdles until week 5.

They can definitely migrate to hurdles, even fences, although I think they are restricted as novices.

Hey ho, we live and learn

Day 2 and all but one of my flat horses struggled. Identity (5th) ran really well over 1m which is an absolute minimum trip for him and will be aimed at the Cambridgeshire. The rest look like low/average grade handicappers. Biggest disappointment was Golden Gun who I thought was one of my top 3 horses for this season and a serious Leger contender but she only beat 2 home.

I had better luck over the sticks with Mirage winning a 3m1f maiden hurdle at Worcester. She's a better chaser tbh but does have a habit of belting 1 or 2 on the way round. Bang Bang going close over 3m5f was really pleasing too and will most likely try and qualify for the Moores Millions final. Most of my other runners showed enough to suggest they can compete in handicaps.

Well done all winners and placers and thanks to the comms team for the calls.

It looks like my flat team are still competitive but my jumpers have fallen behind. It goes to show u cant do nothing and still compete the next season, to be front u got to keep improving from one season to another.

Za Approval 1st, my first grass winner by a dirt horse. On to the Kentucky derby.

Ibn Bey 2nd + Glacial Storm 2nd + Lime Gardens 2nd . The aim is to win a race.

My jumpers either fell or ran ordinary .

Yes I agree my flat team has gone backwards, and it was already mediocre as have played very little as been busy with TOM. At least I have been able to improve my NH team. Also my horse stats have deteriorated even though there performances have improved ( over NH ) they have declined on the flat. I have no more full potential bars must be some hidden stats for NH as I base my breeding on each seasons trials

The little bit of time I've done breeding jumpers and I've noticed the same thing, my potential has been going down on them and I'm not sure how I get it back up. I'm glad it's not just my jump horses doing it, rather odd.

Hi mate i called your IBN BEY race your horse really kicked well towards the end,, absolutely came home the strongest.
