Post Signed up, am I too late?
I have signed up to the 'Starters Orders Pro League' on Wordpress and uploaded my 3yr old colt Classified (posted him on general discussion board)

I don't really know how it all works though. I've read through a lot of forum posts but still I'm unsure.
Also is it too late for me to enter the league with the horse I uploaded?

Tom

No your fine window shuts this weekend coming and will open again half way through the season so if you want to upload more either Flat or jumps best get them in :D

You have missed week 1 which has most of the maidens but week 2 still has enough. Look at the schedule for week 2 and then upload horses which can run in the maidens for week 2.

Here is the schedule viewtopic.php?f=16&t=7834 for the season done week-by-week. In the online league your horses must first run in a maiden before they can enter a handicap. You can start off in a listed or group race but i would strongly advise against it.


How are you getting on with the game? Have you started breeding yet?

viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5713 Give that a read and it should help you out a bit.

Im not killing horses that run first time in listed races, if thats the only race available for you and you are well down the field, you wont be hammered for it, you will be slightly higher than you would have been were you down the field in a maiden tho. Most of the group horses are running in maidens anyway so the quality of the early listed and group races is no higher than the maidens at the top end.

I never run any of mine in listed or group races like the winter derby apart from my nags not being good enough anyway it could lump your horses with to much weight for Handicaps 8)

Thanks for the help Keith.

I haven't tried breeding yet, I imagine I will very soon though.

I find the TOM website quite hard to navigate, I entered Classified in a race in week 2 (says closing 20th Aug) A long wait?
