I think we were doing the same this season and not having any retirements, was told otherwise, unless people think we should, maybe have a poll? not really sure if anybody is bothered either way.
I think initially the no retirements was an experiment a couple of seasons ago. The plan being to see how people felt at the end of season. Then last season was a bit under subscribed and we actually got to enter 5 extra NH horses because numbers were low. Then with all the delays at the start of this season and Gray and Leon being ill it got missed.
I am guessing most people thought no retirements otherwise why leave spaces in your stable.
I have no objections to retirements but maybe unfair on those who didnt fill up the slots.
Maybe allow it for trainers with less than a certain number of wins to help keep their interest up and vote on bringing them back for all next season
