Just the one runner so far in the 3 miler in Ireland - Two Over Five. Jockey got a good pitch on the inside and remained prominent throughout. Ran a screamer and finished a very honourable fourth, snatching an extra place in the dying strides. Really surprised to see that result in such a big field. Could be a staple in the mid/lower grade handicaps!

Great start to u League career, if u horse is good enough to finish in the top 4 of a maiden then I think u will be aiming higher than low grade H'caps.

I'm actually an experienced donkey trainer! My lads made up the numbers in seasons 2 and 3, though i did manage to land the Foxhunters at Cheltenham and a Game Spirit! That and a Moores Millions Qualifier win are pretty much the highlights of my career. My horses were so bad!

I had to start from scratch about 10 days ago after my pc went kaput, so i'm really chuffed to land fourth in a maiden! Especially given my track record!

What was u name, when I saw the name I didn't recognize it. U are Thomas Rodgers, when I was looking at the old trainers last week I was wondering where Mr Rodgers and Liam Elvidge were.

P Hannan. My name doesn't appear in the trainer lists for previous seasons. I did commentaries for the seasons i was a part of. Colm O'Dea ran the joint back then if i remember right....? Unless i'm getting this all wrong!

This is the old site we used to use... or was i apart of something completely different?

Perhaps that was So 3 or So4??? I'm not sure.

Yeah i think it was so4.... has there been leagues for the newer games without me noticing?

Pete u got me pickled, that site was for Gallop Racer so perhaps u it was a different game.

Well if u are a newcomer or a old timer not a bad start.

You're right Peter we used to use that site back when Colm ran the league many moons ago defo SO3/4. We're you Pepsiboy? I certainly remember the name Hannan anyway. I went back to have a look at the old site a few days ago does bring back memories haha remember my first winner a donate and draft horse from Jay Burke. Can't remember the name but think it went on to win a group race as well lol

We used that forum, but raced on Starters Orders 4. Looking at the current trainers list; David Robertson (posted as Davylad) and Derek Hinton (posted as Deltanion) were with us back then, they'll tell me i'm not going mental!

Yeah that was me! It's been a very long time!

Just looking back in this forum and they did things differently in those days. I played SO1 for about 10 years before I upgraded to SO4 and I only bought that about a week before number 5 came out.

And yes u missed three season's of starters orders5 . Welcome back anyway.

I'm sure Leon and PJ towards the end also used that forum. I'm sure I saw bazdev with 1 horse uploaded in this leave. He was a good trainer back in the day.

Did you get a e-mail from me I know I sent out e-mails from Toms Members page cause I didn't know who was who so pick through a few and sent some messages saying the new league was starting.
