concentrate on the sprinters

well the trail for the quest seems to have gone cold at the moment all im getting is a master race of 7f horses (1:22:6/7) so will be trying something different later.

the quest continues..........

well looking at your times I'd guess you're caught up to me or gone past a little. if it's any consolation you seem to have hit the wall I have.

you need some new 5f blood

It's not quite so easy when you get this close. Jalupen has picked one of the harder ones imo. The ones I would be confident of getting would be 7/8/10f. the 5/6f ones feel harder having been trying to break these off and on for the last few months.

i think the problem is i dont have a genuine 5f line.may well have to start one from scratch doh!

Keep going buddy dont give up

some times its good to start over and bring back the old blood later
i tried this yesterday didn't work but has done in past
thankfully i have not hit the wall yet but i know it will come
thats why im holding conrad igor back
i can come back to him when the other line goes stale
i am also working on a cross distance line at moment
5f x 1m4f

Definitely worth doing and I'll hope your experience is different from mine.

ya worth a try does not take long to find out if its working or not

Right game on got myself 4 quickish 5f fillies wifes out all day tomorrow its gonna happen this weekend (unless I get called into work nah hang up the phone)


keep the faith the quest continues.......

sorry ive been a bit quiet had to go into work all weekend best laid plans and all that however just trialled some new fillies and here are the results,the colts are not up to much in fact they are pretty poor so here come the girls.




not going to be around much this week moving home,will try and find some time to breed theses ladies.

been off for a while but had a few last night the new stock are beating the old stock but I don't seem to be able to get a decent time out of them whats that all about?hitting 1.10.4/5 haven't seen anything close to earlier screenshots but on the plus side have seen a few quality 7f/1m horses.


the quest continues........(after I have moved,nearly there)

hope the move is going well.

that's part of the reason I've found 5/6f times the hardest to get down. the only way for me to run close to 1:10 is to have a very favourable wind. the new horses are better than the old when you run them together but as you have found the times stay the same. I'm seeing consistent 1:10:35-1:10:45 and that's been the case for pretty much everything I've bred at 6f since Jan.

5f is the same for me too. I'm kinda stuck at 57:7ish. incredibly consistent but a real pain when you're hoping to see times fall.

keep going mate

i have hit a brick wall and accidentally deleted the ttf file so have had to start 3 gens back
which to be honest i was going to do anyway as the lines had gone very stale
it really is frustrating breeding/racing/trialing season after season for a minuscule improvement

i ignore all times were favourable wind because they ae false times i think with wind behind you its a false time by around 0.20 secs
one of my filly ran with >>> wind behind her and clocked 137.02 her average best was between 137.20 - 23

im back ....finally internet took forever to connect the kids have actually been speaking no gadgets to play with haven't had much time to continue the quest(sick to death of 6f horses if im honest) so have been breeding the 7f/1m horses that were thrown up by my sprinters and to my surprise they are much better than any of my genuine milers will be back on the trail from today

keep the faith......
