Winning Trainer: Paul Rhodes.

Well it was over at the first Fence for me well done Paul you got the Anti post favourites for the League for the Nationals Great win won it well I wonder how you plot the way to a lenient mark for the National

Gray

You lucky Paul is in Venice

Well done to Paul well deserved after the hours he has put in. Pathfinder and Miraculix clearly needed more of a test. They ran on when the race was over, good ground probably didn't help.

Wow, that was trippy.

I've been waiting all day in anticipation. Never knew it would be so much fun racing against real people's horses.

Congrats to Paul.

Looks like I picked the wrong coffee. Congrats to Paul on a well deserved win.

Eagle of the Ninth was never going at the back of the field and pulled up, Lady Tahiti ran round a bit worse than mid division the whole way and that's where she finished. Really pleased with Cairo who ran well for a long way before dropping out of contention after the 3rd last.

Congrats PJ. New league trainers take note that PJ's horses are very good. My better entry was being pushed to stay close to what appeared to be a fast pace. She choked in the stretch and my 10yo other entry was running nicely at the end. Once again it appears I will be a mid to upper pack trainer this upcoming season. Thanks for the lively call NPG.

Well done Paul, looks like you will be a force to be reckoned with

What a race to watch!
Come On Jazz had just too much pace pressure up front to stay up for more than one lap. Bivouac and Free Slam just didn't get going... But good efforts from all three (seeing as I have never trained a jumper in my life... I'll take this finish).

Congrats to Paul!

Well done Paul, great 1-2!
Well done everyone else and great commentary Doug!
My horse The Letter V ran well for just over half the race then faded badly.

Matt

Congrats to paul, that was a great race to watch. Thanks to the commentator great call.

I finally had some finishers Roc de Prance finished a great 5th considering he needs soft ground and Nessfield was up there all the way. Can't wait to see how her daughter Darjeeling gets on now.

The Letter V reminded me of one of those horses that heads the national, jumps like a stag and gives the jockey "a thrill of a lifetime".

Must say a big thank you to Doug for a great commentary, really adds to the atmosphere of the race.

Bring on the league.

always rear, pulled up sustained injury,jumped well although nocatee was that far behind the camera never got a glimpse of him,enjoyed the race it was great.

It did prove one thing and that is they must be 8+ years of age to have a chance just like that last game.

That was an exciting race!
I knew it was on when Bapak Pintar fell at the first!
Really surprised to see my Dictatrice High share the lead for most of the first lap - considering all my three horses mainly ran over 3200m on the flat, I think they did a great job, even though they were all eventually pulled up.
I was also very surprised to see Miraculix not figure in the finish! I personally thought Miraculix was an odds on Fav' after seeing the time on the screenshot that was posted after it's trial win!
As in real life and in the game - "That's racing for you!"


Thanks for all your kind words about my race call/s - I really appreciate it.

Cheers to all and I will get my horses registered for the league early next week.
