I think your probably right, I certainly think the lower and middle tiers will all take a big step forward. I think the top tier will also progress though, just by smaller margins. On the NH of say 400 exports i tend to get 5-10 new trial horses in each breeding cycle, so the rate of return is low, I keep improving my 2 - 2.4m chasers and my 2.4m hurdlers. Everything else is largely stuck right now, so folks can and will catch up.

Less convinced on the flat as I don’t play it much, but that was always a huge time sink to break into the top.

It's been a good learning curve by all. I've made some mistakes with the league format and not paying much attention to the Novices races and rushing to get a full team together. But overall i'm happy with this season.

This will be rectified next season and i'll have a much more balanced stable, this will also be for the flat which i don't care much about.

I've already made major improvements throughout my team for next season and the margins will be much more closer you'll see But i'm sure everyone will have which makes it even more exciting.

Lastly. It's great to be back after many many years away and very much looking forward to next season

well happy my 5 uploads 4 have won 2 x G1's so at least I know i'm going in the right direction

congrats all runners
as always many thanks to the team

Got my first winner this week and then followed it up the next day with another one . I'm delighted. Both won well but not surprising coming off the back of two good runs and only going up a couple pound .

Enjoying the league only got the second half of season, been worth the wait after yrs of wanting to play but not enough time.

Keep up the good work guys ye do a great job. A lot of time and effort goes in to what ye do. If I can help in anyway get in touch.

Well done they are two winners u'll never forget

Well done

Congratulations on your first two winners mate, hope you nab a few more before the season ends.

Thanks guys its still making me smile. I was just delighted to get in in the league never mind a winner so chuffed. Good look to all for the rest of season.

first group win on the flat made even better by a tremendous commentary and followed up with first cheltenham festival winner though granted just a handicap still chuffed to bits . Great work as ever guys and well done to all the winners big and small

Congrats! So good it's worth saying twice . Never mind "just a handicap" your just been modest. Well done to all winners!

No complaints from me on a day where I bag three G1’s, though two disappointing runs too from The Monster who just switched off when it mattered and When The Demon Comes who let the race develop around him rather than taking it up.

Delighted with Lana Del Rey in the Mares she deserved a G1 and Word To The Wise battled bravely to hold on in the Queen Mother, a race despite all my NH success that I have never won.

On the flat grabbing the st leger was a massive bonus, the Hooded Claw ran an absolute blinder and exactly as he does in trial, loitering in last before making a punishing final charge, he was entered for this but had been poor up to now. He even looks like Belladona on paper, though the only connection in the lineage is in the great great grandparents. 80% potential when 5yo got to like that.
