Thanks to Craig, Paul and Ryan

Excuse my ignorance of NH.

Just one question.

What boundaries, ratings wise are grade 3 handicaps, grade 2 handicaps, grade 1 handicaps?

Thanks

Steve

Great work David and all others involved

But there are a few errors, week 3, race 3, week 5, race 16 and week 12, race 28 are all named as chases but have been made hurdle races.

Thanks 17days will change them now

East Pier Whitby in league all graded handicaps work out as 0-180 handicaps well thats how it worked last season

A little bit worried.

There are very few 0-120 handicaps.

Quite a few horses will be running out of the handicap if they have nowhere else to go.

Steve

Out of 300 races there are only forty two 0-140 or less handicap races.

A bit elitist still.

11 8 30000 Hillhouse Quarry Hcp Chase Ayr Spring 4yo+ All Sexes Open Hcp 0-140 2m4f Chase
11 12 35000 Future Champion Novices Chase Ayr Spring 4yo+ All Sexes Open Grade 2 2m4f Chase
11 13 27000 LTBA Mares Fairyhouse Spring 4yo+ Females Open Grade 3 2m4f Chase
11 18 100000 Powers Gold Cup Chase Fairyhouse Spring 4yo+ All Sexes Open Grade 1 2m4f Chase

Why do we need three similar graded races in week 11.

Sorry but it does nothing for the average trainers - very disappointing.

Steve horses get rated alot higher in nhc league so you wont see many horses under the 100 rating so we wont have many running out of the handicap mark in a 0-140

out of 309 races there is 100 handicap races this season so i feel there is much more chances for average trainers

Totally unbalanced:

Why?

Because a top ten trainer made the schedule.

Steve i did the schedule and wanted to make it realistic as i could so i added all the races from real life and from the jumps pattern and listed race book 2010/2011

Hemz did the big meetings Cheltenham,Aintree,Punchestown

so im not happy with you saying that i have done this schedule as an advantage to me and other top trainers

all ive tried to do is make the nhc schedule reaslistic and better to play

so you can **** right off go back and focus on your mickey mouse fantasy flat league or even better **** off from the league all together because your never happy with anything to do with the league unless its been done by you

Okay mate - no problem.

I'll **** *** from the league altogether flat and jumps.

The NH schedule is totally unbalanced - fact.

w12 Eguitrek Finlay Ford Hcp Chase........................Gr2 Hcp...2m5f
w12 Irish daily mirror grd hcp chase.........................Gr3 Hcp...2m4f

Not too bad in a 12 week season yeah prob afew too many at 2m5f but wouldnt be hard to change one or two

Dave not being funny but this is bang out of order mate, totally not needed and what steve has done on the flat side is amazing and l hoped these kind of actions had stopped. Secondly and again not being funny but l agree with some of the points made, this schedule is defo aimed towards the better trainers and is very limited for new trainers to get a win unless top trainers under perform. I agree that any horse can win any race but that still shouldnt be a reason for not giving races towards that, if you get a handicapper also the ratings wont be as crazy as last year so better trainers horses with have a lesser mark and be able to dominate all races

Maybe i was abit out of order but what does he expect when he comes out with things like



All i have tried to do is make the nhc schedule alot more realistic and better for everyone to play which i thought we had done with 309 races over 12 weeks and 100 of them handicap races but if not im sure we will be open to change things

If we want lesser handicap races then maybe its a good idea to bring the restricted races back to the nhc league?

Your comments EPW are bang out of order!!!

This schedule is designed for all levels of trainers ability, also it's not the finished article yet. We know some races need to tweaked.

I think dave was in is right to make a fuss, the time and effort we have put in, then to be shoot down makes me very angry and annoyed.
