 Re: Season 15 Trainers Post Race Discussion and Thoughts
Today I have written to the Oxford English Dictionary and asked them to enter a new word. I will reveal this word at the end of the post. After five weeks things are going ok on the NH side of things, even managed six winners on one day in week four although managed only one last week. Just holding off David R, Craig, Gray and Padraig for 5th numerically which is my aim. However, it is a different story on the flat. After five weeks just three, yes three winners. Makes no sense (or does it). A couple of seasons ago I was top trainer on winners at Royal Ascot, this year I have nothing I really fancy to win. And why, I will tell you why. I can't get into half the low rated races despite only having three wins. Because I have been CLUTTERBUCKED and he is supposed to be my mate. Therefore I have suggested to the Oxford lot that the word CLUTTERBUCKEDmeaning to be ridiculously over rated be added to next years dictionary. Bring back Sirius. I did ok when he was handicapping. (PS Before anyone thinks I'm having a go at Gray this is a joke) but you know when you have been CLUTTERBUCKED

Regarding uploads has the window opened now or if not when does it open so i can add to my team i joined late with barely any saved horses and have 5 flat and 3 jumps horses currently so have been working to get a few more involved . Should be opening soon and will remain open until just before week 7 which I think is early next year

 Re: Season 15 Trainers Post Race Discussion and Thoughts
I think we've scrapped that now mate, you can't retire horses to upload more anymore. You can only add horses to already vacant slots

 Re: Season 15 Trainers Post Race Discussion and Thoughts
Can we not cull horses any more? Most my stable can't win races I don't want to look at them any more Just want to keep the few that are competative.

Guessing your Mr Fisk, if so your not short of stable space so no need to cull and when we could there was a stable limit you would not reach atm. If your not Mr Fisk sorry to have bothered you and Happy Xmas either way. XD.

 Re: Season 15 Trainers Post Race Discussion and Thoughts
Gold Cup winner, over the moon with that. I haven't even been able to muster a runner in the league over 2m4 the last couple of years. Only the Arc left on my list, unfortunately my 1m4 horses look pretty poor this season

 Re: Season 15 Trainers Post Race Discussion and Thoughts
plan complete with Ascend the throne winning the wokenham . might even be a rare group horse for me on the flat as well as having a graded horse over jumps with Kingdom come again placing in a decent race . token sum of 8 horses in my stable over both codes and they appear to be some of the best ive had in all my time competing so onwards and upwards. Huge thanks to all that make the league happen keep going guys you are heroes.

 Re: Season 15 Trainers Post Race Discussion and Thoughts
Thanks again for everyone's time organising the league, its much appreciated.
I'm happy to have brought up my 10th win. Slowly getting better at entering my lesser horses into the right races.
Look forward to the rest of the season and trying to get another group win.
