Switzerland flies home to give his trainer the biggest win of his career. Huge surprise but he jumped impeccably
Absolutely delighted and that puts me into 14th in the trainers championship, back in the pack! Well done mate, great win! Also well done to all other winners and placers and fantastic commentaries Matt

Followed this up with a 5th for Turkey and 2 6ths.
The flat was another day of misery but who cares after that win. I am buzzing!
Thanks for the comms, thoroughly enjoyed Switzerland being called home
Well done all other winners and placers That last jump was awesome! Congrats mate.

 Re: League Weekly reaction
FINALLY, got off the mark on the flat in race 16, looked to outstay the runner up which was a suprise as I thought the trip was too far. Many thanks to whoever it was that flagged the race up as a potential small field as I wouldn't of considered it otherwise. 1 winner in each code so far, both gamebreds, showing off the success of my extensive breeding program! Congrats to all winners and placers.

 Re: League Weekly reaction
Well  I didn't think I'd be doing a bit of a run down in here but to my surprise I AM! :-p What a great day for me - another winner with High Miss leading all the way in a small field. Then a second with Sister High who only got caught in the shadows of the post (thankfully I had no customers in the shop while watching those two races  although the gym next door probably heard me yelling lol) then I had a 4th with Du Dordogne and a 5th with my last start winner Achiever. I also had a 3rd with Noverre Noverre on day 2 and I think my horse Japan Miss ran inside the first five over the jumps but then the race got re-run and it was pulled up. Oh well. Great finish in The Preakness and a great call by Mike! The winner looked gone but kicked when it mattered the most! Lot's of close finishes and a baptism of fire for Marty...I think his first few races had them spread across the track at the post! Well done Marty  Crikey - how polished did Steve sound with his calls!!!!! I think Steve is our Premier Caller for sure  Congrats to all who won and to all who participated with runners or behind the scenes. Doug.
