Tocoolforschool - Think I've got the best staying chaser to ever grace my stable, this horse has speed and stamina in abundants. He's the most exciting chaser I've have in a long time.

Cannot wait to see him in action :D

Can't wait for the new NH season.

Eric Kelly will be back as a 7yo to defend his crown in the Gold Cup. He's not as fast as he was a year on but he stays better which still makes him a big danger to all.

Rite of Yeats will also be back again and will be aimed at top staying hurdle races yet again.

Some newcomers to watch:

Alans Friend: Will be aimed at the champion hurdle, really looking forward to running this one.

Great Endeavour: Will be a top 3 mile + chaser.

Unfurled: Will be aimed at the World Hurdle.

Rock On Ruby: Will be aimed at top 2 mile chase races. Should win a few top handicaps at least.

Dream A Dream II: Will prob be my grand national horse but needs it really soft.

Golanbrook: Looking forward to this one running, should make a decent 2 mile hurdler.

Diffinate Spectacle: Should make a decent 4 mile + chaser.

Charlie Poteen: Runs Eric Kelly close over 3 mile 2 but will prob need further.

Freight Train: Will run in staying chases and hurdles.

Moth Hill: 2 mile + chaser and hurdler. Loves it around Cheltenham.

Have played many seasons now and have group 1 winners on the flat as long as the rain falls. So I'm doing my rain dance and hoping its torrential rain the whole season in both NH and the flat.

MAARTHAL - This is one of the best stayers i've breed.

Been doing my last trails and she is unreal. Breaking the 9.32 over the Grand National trip on good ground :)

If she shows what she's been doing in my trails she will be a star this season. Will probably have too a high rating come the GN race. But i have others in the wings which are going to get in that race very light weighted.

I'm hoping that 'I'm So Lucky' can strike it lucky for me this season. Its a gold cup contender who maybe better than Eric Kelly.

I hear you chuckling...It's what all former spaghetti western actors drink.

Tells the barkeep's corpse and anyone who moseys in that my best horses are Golden Aria in the 8th at Hamilton and Bramley Dancer in the 3rd at Chepstow. Though I fully expect to be defeated. What's you got?

I fully expect my 4yo's to be very competitive at G1 level, if not winning several. Thats High Hopes and Get It Bits N Bobs. Two very high class horses with gears and normally a sustained burst of extra speed all the way to the line. Both will be aimed at the major races in Dubai and then all the G1's for 4yo's+ at 12f and 10f respectively.


And if there's any pace in the Gold Cup then the others might as well not turn up. Feat Ping loves the track and stays so well. Just hope they dont go 23mph for the first 2m and it turns into a sprint.


Thats what ive got

The MPH makes me think of my 2 mile horse in my US schedule. There's only one 2 mile race in the schedule - The Dubai Gold Cup. I had the best 2 mile horse for three years - which isn't saying much. One year he won the Gold Cup under a strangle hold. The jock couldn't slow him down enough. He crossed the finish line going a mercurial 13 MPH! He could have jumped off the horse and walked him across the finish line for the win.

I must note I'm a manual trainer and my game isn't that many years in. Around fifteen I think. But I hope to get a handicap here or there.

For the league I would advise you to use simple training to speed things up.

Nah. I like manual training. I've actually won a race many leagues ago.

Hope you run those 4 year olds in 3+ races :). Looking forward to racing my 3 year old against all 4+ horses and showing why I don't have any horses past 3!
