Well done all winners and placers, and some great coms...

A quick review of my runners -

Champion Hurdle - Sword of Brixton 5th, as usual is not really quite a G1 horse, but run into trouble a couple of times from 2f out when trying to get going, but pleased.

BGC Cross Country - Eager 3rd, solid as ever off the minimal weight she seems to carry(well treated by HC), bowls along in front, but just does not quicken in the final 2-3 furlongs. She's nice to watch as she will always give you a run for your money. The Irish & Grand Nationals are her next port of calls. (wish I had given this one different instructions)

Bumper -Devious Sunlight 7th, didnt settle and 2m was always too sharp for this one.

Jewsons Novice - Clerk Of The Court 13th, raced wide so it says, poor effort.

Ryanair Chase - Misteriousa 3rd, great ride and stayed on up the hill well, another furlong and would of caught the leader :-)

My other runners Pearl Reform, Lupus & Nevada Pegasus were really to make up numbers....

all in all a couple of creditable 3rd's which I am happy about.

one idea i like to combat impatience and to give something to every day of the week is to release festival races on their corresponding days. like this cheltenham festival could of been released tues weds thurs and fri - spread it out like it is in real life. same could go for all major festivals. could work well next season!!


This is something I really want to do. I also want to stream the races live on ustream or something like that. It's fitting the technology together that's the tricky bit

Paul is a legend and i agree would be hard to fill his boots. I do think however that the NHC and flat should be focussed on seperatley to massively improve both disciplines next season. not just for the leagues but for rich as it is too much for him to do to make changes for every league.


Paul is a legend for getting Spinamix 2nd :lol:

I hope you'll stick around for the post season debrief Ryan, we'll discuss what worked in each league and what didn't then throw some ideas in the pot for next season.

And +1 to the great comms, as ever :wink:
