Afternoon all! Finally got back on top of my university work, for now... Hope everyone have been well and have wintered well 
Anyway, straight to the question really - has there been a date set for the new league to be started again? I've noticed the new schedule (looks great). Cheers, Liam. |

As a now 2nd season rookie, I understand your eagerness. As mentioned before, have you been exporting your horses? (To export, you click on the horse in question and press the 'E' button besides the picture) & export them when as fit as you can get them, too. Next, when the league opens. You will be asked to upload all your horses into a database. The website is called TOM and is found here, http://www.sopl.info/sopl/tom10/main.php Then, through that website you can declare your horses into races for that week and other weeks. The races will be posted on this forum, with a link to download and view through the SO4 race viewer on the games homepage. I believe the races are ran early in the week, then USA races are released to watch Wednesdays, NH Thursdays & UK Flat Fridays. WARNING Do not claim your horses are good until you've played in the league. I came into the league last year with horses unbeaten and winning G1 ater G1, then they couldn't even place in maidens! Luckily, I won what every trainer wants though in my maiden season - winning a classic. My beloved St. Leger. Have fun, have some banter with the people in the league and don't get too disheartened when Scatters wins every race week after week! Hope I've shed some light on how to enter/play Johnatahn. Liam |

Not sure if it's just the way I read this but game form means very little at all when it comes the the league. The distances in the main will be the same, so if you have a 1m4 horse in the game it will likely be 1m4 in the league. However if a horse is winning multiple group1's easily in the game, this will not always translate to the league. The ONLY way to get a full stable of competitive horses is to trial in your construction kit as often as possible. The horses that are best there should be sent to stud, regardless of their game form. I am now continually getting rid of group 1 game horses and sending maidens to stud. This league is all about what happens in the construction kit mate. That is the first lesson I think anyone hoping to start and be a bit competitive needs to know. Hope that helps, and again sorry if you already knew that. |

Hi mate, Welcome. Yes the trialing is the most important part of the online league, super game horses dont always cut it at the trials, after so many seasons im finding my milers are on a par now with my sprinters. |

Yes mate, it's definitely about the trials in the construction kit. To keep your line developing only put the best horses from those trials in to the breeding barn. You will notice a quick upgrade in your horses in these trials if you havent been doing it before trust me. If you still enjoy playing the actual game as well, keep the good game horses in training just to keep you occupied in the game. I personally dont play the game properly at all now, just to get horses to trial in CK |

Can I enter both the Flat and NH leagues or is it just one? Just another thing...I export my horses every year, from ages 3 to 9. Can I run the same horse but different age in league races? For example my horse Midnight Express, runs as a 2 mile 4 horse when 3 and then a 2mile 6 horse when 4 and a 3 mile horse when 5. Could I run all three in different races? |
