Close guess. But it's Gallop Racer and G Eyed (G1)Jockey that were ma horse racing alternatives.

Castellet (14th) - Last in the Al Quoz
Looney (13th) - Beat one home, too high in the weights

My first ever race today! Wish upon a star came 20th out of 22 in the Epsom Mile Maiden, but I absolutely loved it!

Now the bug has bitten I will not stop until I train a winner. Might be here a while though! :lol:

R4 - Interlock 8th - Didn't run bad but just doesn't have that extra burst that the best have.
R6 - Friendly Fire 12th - Slow away and couldn't recover, gutted.
R10 - Floozy 4th - Much better this week in the 22 runner race.

Well done Dubai Festival winners.

Quiet day for me just 3 ran

1 x 3rd

12 William Hill Stayers Maiden Finnly
3rd Ran a cracker stayed on all the way home but needs just that little further which is not a bad thing

17 Robinsons Mercedes Benz Handicap Bymount
Top Weight was big ask but think he is group quality ended up 6th was a solid run

20 200,000 Tattersalls 3-Y-O Trophy Deadly Dozen
Unplaced ended up being the pacemaker(which is his style) very disappointing run disapointed that he faded like that as he stays much further
think my flat team are being found out lack of time put into flat side Winner looks real classy had a lot to do with 2 to go but flew home

Epitaph (R13) got another win under her belt this time in Listed company after a solid win in Week 1. She'll be heading to Royal Ascot where based on what I've seen she'll be a force to be reckoned with.

Czaribello (R14) followed up her Spring Cup victory with the Nell Gwynn here in what was an absolute farce of a race. Benefiting from an easy lead throughout she quickened up well into the dip and never looked like getting caught - she'll go for the Guineas next where hopefully more of the same awaits.

Czaeria (R15) followed up his impressive maiden win with an authorative display to land the Craven, and based on what I've seen here I think we've got our 2000 Guineas winner. He went a solid enough clip throughout and just kept finding for pressure out in front, maintaining the advantage all the way to the wire - a class performance from a class horse.

Secure Point (R18) upped in trip following her disappointing debut run, and she hit the front with plenty of distance to travel. She kept rolling all the way to the line and closed off an impressive victory. She'll possibly head for the Oaks but I'm undecided at the moment between her and Zero Days so will need to play it by ear.

Diocletian (R20) this horse is actually a machine, but once again just given far too much to do. Annoying really because he has a big prize in him but clearly needs things to drop right, and when they do - he'll win.

Another 4 winners, this time from 5 runners - turning out to be quite a pleasing week for Midnight Valley. Starts to get tougher after this though!

A nice day, ups and downs.

Lemon Souffle 6th, disappointing
Distant Relative 0, sums my milers up this season.
Land of Dreams 1st, showed cracking middle pace was hanging on at the end.
Cezanne 1st, over the moon with that run.

Its been a massive turn around with my team this year, last year my strength was 2yo olds and milers and this year they have been very poor. When I started breeding for the league I couldn't bred sprinters and now it's the best part of my team.
I don't think my middle distance horses can compete with taylors monsters but they have run well so far and I think its down to my pacesetter Moon Cactus who helps my flat and jumps team set a nice pace through the races.

Thanks Bermenstein, much appreciated.

Believe it or not I actually put 10x amount of time into my jumps string than my flat, and these horses haven't been touched since last July. :lol:

R13 - David Livingstone - 10 - got outpaced needs 6f
R15 - Heat Seeking Missile - 4th - Ran on but ideally wants 9f - might place in the guineas though
R18 - Sketch Up - 4th - Ran into traffic problems and ran on well. Will be better over 14f
R20 - Gay Divorcee - 4th - Hit the front too early, but don't think she was good enough anyway
