 Re: NH : Talk Reaction Banter
Zod Sterling (12th) - Returning from last season but was never going to be good enough here Sky Ferreira (7th) - Not a bad one at all Shine One (8th) - A pretty solid run Sepang (12th) - Faded very tamely but another returning horse who was always going to struggle this week Lundos (7th) - Encouraging run, will improve in juvenile hurdles Turning Up The Heat (6th) - Very good opening run over 2f too far probably
No money on day 1 but I rarely do in maidens. Encouraging start from a couple though
Thanks to the team for running the races, it's great to be back

 Re: NH : Talk Reaction Banter
Great Day with 4 winners. Looks like its going to be a great battle for the trainers title.
R11 - Masked Stranger - 1st - Won well and will be better over 3m so prospects are good. R12 - Taskmaster - 7th - Never showed but my bumper horses always seem to improve over the season and the firm ground was not to his liking R13 - Craftsman - 5th - Needs further R14 - Nurture - 6th - Clearly didn't stay R15 - Despicable Me - 4th - Needs a stiffer test and softer ground R16 - Leige Lord - Distance was stretching his stamina and a late jumping error didn't help R17 - Something Good - 1st - Happy as he wants it a bit further R18 - Audacity - 1st - Ran on well - good run for my 3rd string 2m4 hurdler R19 - Dogs of War - 1st - Amazing run - Headed on numerous occasions but rallied each time before pulling away at the finish. 3m1 is probably on the short side as well R20 - Ruling Swordsman - 2nd - Distance was too far but acquitted himself well.
Considering I tested the boundaries of distances for most of my runners it was a brilliant day and the stable looks very strong over the 2m4 / 2m5 distance
Another winner for a new stable in NH league today which was great to see

 Re: NH : Talk Reaction Banter
R11 Cave Dweller (2nd) - very promising run. blundered his way over the 2nd last which didn't help but Leon's winner was too good anyway. R13 Carmen Black (8th) - best at this trip (3m5f) in ck but weakened badly from early in the straight. just hope it was an off day. R19 Tobermory (3rd) - got outpaced from 3 fences out then ran on again from the last. will be suited by further. R20 Shakespeare (3rd) - doesn't stay a yard further than 2m2f so delighted to see him hang on for a place.
well done to all winners and placers.

 Re: NH : Talk Reaction Banter
A good day, all ran well.
Returning 2nd, finally bred a decent 2m4 horse. Tropical Lake Fell, running ok when fell Material World 2nd, ran well winner was impressive. Rig Steel 4th, jumping was awful. Santa Concerto 2nd, a good run will need a faster race. Fiddling the Facts 1st, jumped well. Niche Market 1st, jumped well and loves a slog. Classifield 1st, over the moon, the top three are all class acts.

There's a few flashy types out there aka Kauto Stars types compered to my horses that are more like Denman type horses, front running grinders.
