Can you please be more specific when explaining how to make sure ya newbies select the right one. Very confusing as in the new game settings anything you select is in dark green but then the league mode selection in either liight green or red. What should it be on please?

Does anyone know why I can’t see the green bar stats of any horses in what I think is the league mode games? I selected the red “l” in the game settings so I think that’s right but I’m just so confused. I hate being autistic sometimes

You can't see the green bars in league mode. It is designed to make it harder and more competitive for the league players.

A number of changes were introduced with this season to make the league more approachable and less dominated by the same top tier of trainers. Not being able to see the bars of your horses was one of those changes. If you cannot see them your probably in the right game. Your save when you go to open it should also have the word ‘league’ against it.

Don’t be disheartened if to start off with your horses are sub par. The league trainers have years of experience and have already been preparing their teams for months. It takes time to work out. Ask as many questions as you need too, the community is friendly and will openly share insight.

If you are in league mode you cannot export horses to the game pool or see secondary stats.

I think you can still enter horses into the league but they will be purged once the league starts.

To start a game in league mode make sure to click on the league mode switch it should light up red if I remember correctly (Looks like a faint orange L and should look dark red for league mode.) and my first statement will be true in that no mention of the game pool will be present in game and no secondary stats are visible such as battling quality, finish quirks etc..

League mode looks like this:

That is what you want!

Non League mode looks like this:

This would be purged before the race is run!

You Know which Game is League Mode it tells you on the Loading SAVED GAME PAGE it tells you Season Day Trainer etc and at the end it will say FLAt LEAGUE or FLAT/JUMP LEAGUE

Do not Export any Non League Horse Files if Possible once the Window is Closed you can't Change Uploads

On the eve of the league I had a look through some of my best National Hunt moments
these 2 were particularly special.

Fort Lauderdale leading home a mamouth field of 27 by over 5 lengths in the Cheltenham Gold
Cup > https://youtu.be/XhQ79HertIs
Best performance ever by any of my jumps horses he was awesome on the day

Coffee De London staying on strong to win the Grand National > https://youtu.be/AZWe06CJlm8
a year later he tried to defend his title finishing a valiant 3rd.


I doubt I will be hitting these heights this season over the
sticks think my lot will be battling it out in the handicaps

Please feel free to share your great moments

I'd have to look back through previously posts from years gone by.

I remember a few horses who went unbeaten all season and won all the top races throughout. Think i made a mistake instead of going for the Cheltenham Gold Cup i went the RSA Chase with one of them, just didn't trail that good on that ground and distance at the time, but was a monster of a 3m chaser. In hindsight i believe he would have won the GC that season.

I've won just about every single top class race in the NH league. Won all 4 nationals on numerous times. Cheltenham top trainer a few times.

As previously mentioned before only the Cheltenham Gold Cup is missing from the trophy cabinet.

Never was interested in the flat before. Hopeful of some very good horses showing up in the flat league this season.

Will be very happy to be at least competitive in both leagues. Hopefully pick up a few Group/Grade 1's along the way.

Well I have never been a big Shot Trainer and Like Hemz always better over sticks I think my first season was the last one Hemz was in before the long Break and my first winner winning the Fixed Brush Hurdle at Haydock was such a thrill it was that good I am still doing it.

I have won lots of Grade 1 over the Years But winning The Gold Cup with Electric Blue was the highlight but that was the season Before the You Tube Channel so no Video for that but it was over 5years ago
always Struggled on the Flat but that's because I don't have the time and find it to Hot to try and be competitive in you Newbies stand a better chance of winning over the Jumps but I wish everyone Good luck for the coming season and it's a welcome break from whats going on in the world at the Moment.


P.S

Hopeful to start Friday as of today I have no Fix for the Distance restrictions on the Irish Course if I don't get one but still have to delay by a week OR Run Any Irish Races at a Different Location May be on My American NH Courses Like Saratoga Springs lol Just Kidding.

Post Re: It's Time Ladies and Gentlemen!!!!!
Thought I'd do a little write up on my team for the season, more for me than anyone else


Stable Stars;

Colts - Hanun Genes/Kaiping Scrapp

Filly's - Wuhu Commanche/Hanghu Isengard


I have not entered a horse in a distance above 1m2 in my recent seasons as I started too late to get much done, I'm hoping to do a lot better this time having started at the same time as everyone else. I am hopeful of a top 5 finish on the flat, but would be happy to be competitive as I think my breeding programme has just taken off so I think I will improve next year a lot.

My team has made me see some really good traits from my breeding. Wuwei Coronas in particular is a feature over a variety of distances. Wuwei Coronas himself is a 1m2 colt who was no good in the CK, but had 100% potential, out of a game 5f horse called Comply Which. Comply Which seemed to change my trials completely, he was a game horse I never owned, but bred a lot with through the barn. He is somewhere in nearly all my sprinters now, and through Wuwei Coronas, actually has horses over 1m6-2m too. I'm hoping through Coronas I am attaching the 5f speed into a lot of my longer distance, he now breeds with sprinters, as well as stayers. He does seem to be more effective at getting 1m2-1m6 horses though. Wuwei Coronas, and Comply Which are where my 100% potential came from, although i don't fully concentrate on this side now, most of my yearlings are starting to come out around 90%

Foshan Crescent 5F Colt 3yo - A very consistent sort in my trials, runs up with the pace and sees it out very well, good chance of picking up a few races, especially on anything softish. One of a lot of horses from Arizona Tajneed, a very speedy sort

Akniste Tower 5f Filly 3yo - A surprise entrant in the team, very early bred horse, that has done a lot of breeding herself. Surprised me in the league trials, to the extent I went back an done more trials to double check it wasn't a fluke. She loves to come with a very late, very strong finish, might not be suited to league races, anything I get from her is a bonus, but a favourite at the yard as she's one who really got the stable going in the early seasons.

Hanghu Isengard 5f Filly 4yo - By far my best filly sprinter, in a different league to the rest, an often beats the boys at home, big expectations for her, runs handy on all grounds. Put her in as a 4yo as there was no difference in the 3yo an 4yo version.

Lipu Claim 3yo 5f Colt - Bit of a reserve as I had a space left and wanted another sprinter. Very consistent, but likes to be in the pack, and seems to always get pushed along very early, however does always seem to be in the finish, so may be an unknown in the league races, good chance he gets taken off his feet too early.

Foshan Titan 6f 3yo Colt - one of 2 horses that completely dominate 1st an 2nd in my home trials. They Massively outscore anything else, however, they are never far in front of the rest. I think this just means my 6f horses aren't very good, but we'll see. Likes to sit handy which will help, but seems to be outpaced before staying on again

Wuwei Damsel 3yo Filly 6f - Doesn't look suited to league sprints at all. I will likely be aiming her at the Wokingham as I fancy she will struggle to get the required pace for a lot of races, and get in on a good mark, Ascot with loads of runners will suit her perfectly

Hanun Colony 4yo Colt 6f - Probably the best of my 6f horses, so consistent in my trials, always 1st or 2nd regardless. if my 6f horses aren't as bad as I think, this could do decent things.

Foshan Parliment 1m 3yo Colt - A Wuwei Coronas bred horse. looks a very good horse in my trials, sits handy and stays brilliantly, will be aimed at the 2000, an Newmarket over 1m is perfect for him

Toronto Valois 7f Filly 3yo - Very much a 7f specialist, either all my other horses are terrible at, or shes exceptional as she finishes last over 1m. There to hopefully pick up a few 7f races others won't bother with

Lipu Plan - 1m 3yo Filly - I am really not sure about her. Never noticed her in any trialling before the league trials, but she statistically was decent. I went back to double check but had accidentally deleted her after putting her in the league folder to upload. So stuck with the spreadsheet an she's in, likely terrible though.

Toronto Knott 4yo Filly 1m - Another early bred horse, but one of the first to really stand out, the fact she's in could just mean my milers haven't moved along much. She likes to come from miles back and is from the same family lines as Akniste Tower. I'd be surprised if she's up to much. Very much a Newmarket specialist

Lipu Crest 3yo Colt 1m1 - Son of Toronto Knott and Siping Kheleyf which ran a good 2nd in the final league trials day 4, and very much a 1m1 specialist. It's breeding suggests it will be decent in league races, and although a hold up horse, still managed to be top 3 in 14 of the 15 trials at Ascot so very consistent, quietly confident it's a dark horse over it's preferred 1m1

Wuhu Commanche 3yo filly 1m2 - Could be the Stable star. Sits handy, and has an astonishing burst 2f out. I am very expecting of her, French Oaks the target. A Wuwei Coronas horse, like so many of my team. Odd as Wuwei Coronas never showed a thing in the CK, but is by far my best breeding stallion

Hanun Elder 3yo Colt 1m2 - Another Wuwei Coronas, and again far better than the other colts in the trials. Will be aimed at the French Derby
Akniste Aris

Akniste Aris 3yo Filly 1m1 - A very ealy bred horse. Not got much hope for it, but was thereabouts in the trials, nowhere near Wuhu Commanche level though.

Ostrava Accompli 3yo 1m2 filly - From the same stallion as Akniste Aris (Irish Ted), So another early breed. I stopped using ted early in my breeding programme for some reason, but he still remains in a lot of the lines. Similar to her half sister, likely to be hanging round the decent handicaps

Foshan Town colt 1m2 4yo - Yet another Wuwei Coronas horse. Isn't far off it's half Brother Hanun Elder. Has a strange running dstyle of flying to the front 2 out, then trying to grimly hold on, which it usually doesn't against Elder. Could actually be suited to the league in that respect an has a chance of picking up a couple.

wuhu mornings 3yo Colt 1m4 - a Wuwei Roscoe horse. Much better than Roscoe, who in trials day 4 ran wide the whole way in both races, and wasn't far off in either. based on that I'm giving him a chance. Likes to vome through the field though which isn't ideal, and maybe why I'd prefer Hanun Genes for the derby as it sits handy and there's little between them

hanun Genes 3yo Colt 1m4 - Another Wuwei Coronas horse. Very close between this and Mornings as to who will be my Derby horse. Running style this one preferred as he sits handy and puts in an amazing burst 2f but then usually holds on grimly, but I think Mornings is slightly better.

wuhu encore 3yo Filly 1m4 - My best 1m4 filly by far, however has to come from way too far back, once she picks up she fly's, but likely to not be suited for league races.

Hanun Volta 4yo Colt 1m4 - Another Wuwei Coronas horse. In the league for consistency, always in the placings without fail and could be one of those horses that surprises in the league due to always running it's race

Kaiping Scrapp 3yo Colt 1m6 - My main Leger hope, stays on at the end of the 1m6 trials like a train, visually fantastic. Son of Hanghu Leary who now controls the rights to my staying breeding, and is in the league himself with expectations

Kaiping slick 3yo colt 1m6 - Yet another horse out of Wuwei Coronas. Very close with Kaiping Scrapp, but always seems to be passed in the final furlong, and ends up well over a length behind. In the league due to his frnt running style, Really goes off in front an my be able to steal races in the staying category. Wouldn't actually surprise me if he ended up in the leger instead

Hanghu Leary 4yo colt 2m+ - My first real wow horse in the staying section. seems to have taken my 2m+ races to another level in the trials. Also doing well breeding now too. I expect decent things from him, although having to come from the back may not help his cause

Foshan Drift 4yo Filly 2m+ - Half sister to Hanghu leary (both from melbourne Gun), and equally as impressive against the female stayers. Even beats the boys. She will be in the Gold Cup probably, although not sure she'll stay, think both horses will be better over 2m2 unfortunately.

I haven't added 2yo's as I didn't have enough time to trial the hundreds I've kept without trialling. I plan on adding a few in week 5 for some of my pooroer performing horses.
