i know this has been raised a number of times (by me once) but i just cant get my head round this "gelding doesnt matter"when 4 of the top 5 trainers only have geldings then u read threads where a league format is discussed and it seems when u raise this delicate subject you get shot down in flames and dismissed (mainly by those who geld)as it makes no difference well i for one do think it makes a difference otherwise why do it "out of habit"just look at the juvenile colts race 1 gelded runner and guess what it won this is my first season and at least i have had winners but i doubt very much i will continue when it becomes the online gelding league which is where its heading. now for the tirade of put down and belittleing which i am prepared for as people have been doing this longer than me which will no doubt be pointed out.

come on mate, you too could geld, its your choice................

yes its my choice and i choose not to, to keep my bloodlines intact without having to force close the game when i dont have to.

This has been gone over too many times. Its proved it does not have an effect in SO4. Trainers have done it this year so they dont get there horse excited, thats all. Discussion Closed!
