U need luck to win any race on the dirt, would love Mark to have a look at them because they are not very fair. If u on the outside u can forget it u have no chance.

Have u decided to come back yet.

Thats the idea mate i got some horses i bred in May 2015 so may try those, im going back to Thailand the Dec 14 so not got much time.

cheers nash got lucky on the dirt but yeh had great week nice to hear you're coming back

Cheers mate but only will have handicappers maybe i can some luck in the G1 handicaps

My team of hold up horses performed well on the flat, although I didn't get to see Last Ride come from last
Ground proved too quick over NH, hopefully the rain comes soon

21 individual Trainers of the 30 entered in the Dual Code Championships have now
won a race not alot wrong with this league lads

I am happy that most of mine seem to set the pace, it seems i need to breed some stamina into them now, would that be the solution mr mentor?

this league is very enjoyable from any end of the spectrum i can never thank the team enough

First winner of the season with Lyonshall stealing the Pontefract Marathon from the front. It will probably destroy his handicap rating but it feels great to be off the mark!

Still waiting for my first jumps win, hopefully it is just around the corner.

Thanks to the team, you all do a fantastic job

I had my first winner of the season

'Man about town' over the jumps, just held on!

Well done all winners and placers

well done all trainers and staff

A day to bemoan my misfortunes.......

Flat

Prohibition Almighty- 7th too much class for him, detached from top group never challenged.

Boldy Going - 6th got interference at the close but likely made no difference, stayed very one paced.

Love nor Money - 18th outclassed and outpaced, never in it.

Need for speed - 15th+ another utterly outclassed never in it.

Hugh Jengine - 6th really needs another furlong, made some late headway but way to much to do.

Fine Puzzle - Disqualified. Ran home 1st, would have been my first ever win on the flat in the league and I saw nothing to merit the stewards decision. Worse yet the handicapper will still likely nobble him anyway. Mightily ticked off.......

Breaking Glass - 2nd stayed on well too reel in the leaders, just not quite up to pace.

The Prisoner - 12th, distance was too far really and it showed, weakened badly.

Podgies Boy - 2nd in a field of four. Left to much to do and he is no speed horse.


Jump - bad luck continues.......well not all

Indian Summer - Fell at the 6th, was travelling ok.

Rabbling Rebel - 1st only bright spot in an otherwise frustrating day. Closed superbly in the last 2f, though likely due to being low in the weights. Not likely to repeat when the handicapper has his way.

The Estate - 4th was always going to struggle under the weight, ran soundly but ran out of steam at the business end.

Around DBX - 6th scrubbed around but no pace when it mattered, low end handicaps will be her mark.

Eye of the Storm - 5th slow away and never travelled in a manner to threaten.

Great White Hope - Fell at the first.

Hush Puppy - Fell at the second......meh

Slim Chance - Pulled up injured.....meh

Cap Gemini - 4th stayed on strongly but keeps finding a few that are too good.

Josh

Just the 2 runners for me today having not uploaded any horse avove 1m2

Kentucky grand duke - Ran what seemed to be another stinker, detatching itself again. I have every faith this horse is massively off the wrong H'cap mark an will pick one up soon

Iowan Ralph - Thought this has a squeak with a little bit of luck. Not sure it got the luck having to go widest of all at Chester, but ran a blinder to get up an win. Very pleased with this one

still only pacemaking but thats ok i will improve

Thanks to all for everything you've all done for us - tremendous as always
