I'll be entering this one in the 3 mile 3 trial race.

Its on a Par with Eric Kelly.

Ok the trials have enough interest it seems. I will edit my original post to list the races in detail and go from there.

But the horses for the trials can be still used for the league?

Uploads of horses are in TOM too? Sorry, looking forward to my first online season.

Yes, horses used for trials can still be used for the league. There is no need to upload to TOM for trails, horse files are just sent to the person who is running the trials Email address for him to make up the races.

Nice horse jimmy boy only concern for me is the firmer ground. Me personally hate horses with that preference for the NH league.

Looking forward to seeing your jumps stable this season mate. Not played since last season ended but i may get back into having some game time before the season kicks off again.

Got a few what didn't make the cut last season and after trailing them recently i may have made some mistakes with them not been in my stable.

Good luck with your new recruits

Hey Keith,

When do you plan on running the trails mate?

I've got mine ready to roll now I can send you my horses over when ready.

How long do you think I should give people to send the horses over?? The NH races are listed and they wont change so trainers can send them over now. I've been thinking that Sandown wont be used for all races as it wont offer much help to new trainers if their horses fall in them races. Maybe one of the lesser tracks can be used?

Sandown is very tricky i agree. Just thought a challenge would be good.

Ffos Las is a fair course along with Wincanton. Either of those would be good for the trails.

Il send you some of mine over later tonight. what's your email keith?

That make sense? I'll let you know when I recieve them

A challenge would be good but it wont tell the new or "lesser"(me!) trainers much if their horses fall down the back. Wincanton and Ffos Las are fine.

I got it mate

Will do some trails soon and send them over. Il be joining you in the Handicap department this season

Have sent mine over

I got them Leo. I will re edit the opening post later and start to put the horses I recieve in the races. If I make a mistake please let me know on this thread.

Can you clarify what ground we will be going with over jumps Keith?

Also are we sticking to one track or a few?

For the flat Brighton will play a part and I need one other track to run the races over 1m4, ground is random summer unless trainers want it determined now?

For the jumps how about Wetherby or Wincanton and good to soft ground.

I am still a newbie at this so really if a lot of trainers want it to be different or more specific then thats fine.

Good/soft is perfect it balances everything up for both types of horses who like faster ground and for those who like some soft.

Can you edit which distances will be at each course? Just helps trainers with trailing.

It's up to you Keith. Am good with what ever you do mate
