think you might have to look at this week for next season seems really top heavy for 6f & 7f races also some very similar races over other trips

OK - Thanks Steve, I will look at that now.

on another note

For the first time ever on the flat every single horse in my team gets a run this week ha ha
love the double entries made a huge difference

Steve is correct - there were 13 races over 6 and 7 furlong during week 7.

Week 7 proposal.


Because first starters can run in Group races I have decided to drop two maiden races. They are Race 10 - 2yo 7f Maiden and Race 26 3yo+ 7f Maiden.
There is still four Group races at 6f and 7f for 2yo horses to start in and three Group races for 3yo+ over 6f and 7f to start in.

Race 10 will now be The Railway Stakes a G1hcp (3yo+) over 8f from Ascot in Western Australia.
Race 26 will now be a 3yo+, 0-70 over 10f (Haydock I think)

I have drop Race 8 from 0-90 to 0-85 - over 12f.

And Race 17 which was a 0-110 over 16f is now the G2hcp Adelaide Cup over 16f at Morphettville in South Australia. Both the SA and WA tracks are in the stock game.
I changed Race 17 because there are eight races during week 7 that are 13f+ - two maidens and two 0-110 as the highest rated races.
I think we need a quiet debate if Maiden races outside of Weeks 1 and 6 are really needed now. We could change them into low rated races and Group and Group Handicap. I like the idea of exploiting the Australian Group Handicap races as it allows top trainers with lower rated horses a chance to enter at a good weight and lower trainers get a crack with a light weight.

Sorry Doug, but we also need to look at 5F races for 3+ that are not group races or really low handicaps.

Only 6 handicaps (& 3 in one week) above 0-70 in 9 weeks & nothing for past 3 weeks.

Week 5 1 x G2
Week 6 1 x G1
Week 7 1 x 0-70
Week 8 1 x G2 1x 0-90
Week 9 1 x 0-110 1x 0-90 1x 85
Week 10 1 x 0-70
Week 11 1 x listed 1 x 0-100
Week 12 1 x 0-70
Week 13 1 x 0-100

I have added 2 5f in week 6 Stu Races 37 and 38
6 37 Hamilton Audi Cup 50000 13 Hamilton Turf 3+ 3 99 Open 0-110 - 5F
6 38 Audi Fleet Team Handicap 20000 13 Hamilton Turf 3+ 3 99 Open 0-70 - 5F
6 39 Belmont Stakes 380000 10 Brooklyn Dirt 3YO 3 3 Open Group 1
6 40 Arrogante Stakes 40000 17 Brooklyn Dirt 2YO 2 2 Open 0-70

I think the jumps is full but I think if u have 5 race runners then I believe u could go to 40 races a week.

Better get some more commentators lol

Better, thanks Gray

Can we now have 40 flat races per week?

Motty and Peter are doing nothing, anyone got their numbers

Doug only if you have to i dont want 40 races not until we have more trainers playing the league it will stretch the fields to small.

Gray

Yep - no worries from me.

another week that probably needs looking at for next season 6 races 1m5f to 1m 61/2f take out the 2 G1s and theres 4 very similar races hcapps perhaps needs a tweak
