I was VERY happy with my runners. Knew the 1m6 was not up to it and the only one who ran badly from my perspective.
Will try to improve a few more and get together a full stable for the flat to compete in handicaps.
Might have a look at some NH runner's after that
Thanks for the races and the amazing commentaries!!! I couldn't do those
Your horses did extremely well for a first time entrant and you will be competing in higher grade races than handicaps with some based on those performances.
Definitely put some in the NH as its wide open and a lot of fun. My horse that won the 4yo hurdle was flat horse and had never jumped a hurdle in the game.
Thanks for the kind words about the commentaries. If you fancy having a go we can always use some extra help.
Haha really?
Well I couldn't get art money to work, I'm sure it's easy but not fit me. So I had a few reverse forecasts on 33/1 and 33/1 1st and 2nds. Then I bought every group winning mare, some looked awful and never produced anything with any ability haha. But gradually my mares got better and then I was lucky enough to find a stallion who had 223 G1 winners by the time he retired at 20 and that's where all my 1m-2m horses came from.
I've been so bored the last six months and have to shield, so this has been a good distraction at times. Though I hate trialing 2yo's and also get a bit down when 70+ of them are useless. But I guess it's the same for everyone and I've taken on some of the advice people were kind to give when I felt a bit deflated a few weeks ago.
Cleared out the mares who have never produced anything and it was a big help knowing some horse's are better at breeding certain distances and crap at others.
The comms add something really amazing and are great as well! I won't be adding me voice though, I've only been watching racing a few years and would be too embarrassed
