Post First Group 1 winner :)
Just had my first G1 winner! Gamebred horse called Blonde En Blonde in the 2m4f Melling Chase at Aintree :) Happy days!

Miss the fireworks though :( they were cheesy but they made sure you knew you'd a G1 race!

Pointless thread but i'm happy about it and thought i'd shout about it haha!

Well played mate. I miss the fireworks too! Should be something special for winning a G1. Sadly, too many people criticised the fireworks in SO4 - shame :(

Fireworks is well better than having nothing, having nothing after a G1 makes it seem like a normal race win

If Mark is reading this thread, any chance of re-introducing the fireworks for G1 success?

Trophy Presentation would be better, Fireworks were ok, but i'd be happy to see a trophy screen with the Horse, Trainer and Jockey named on screen.. maybe owners names if playing owners mode.

Thanks guys :)

There should definitely be something, even if its just a banner across the top of the screen that says G1 Winner! It does just feel like any other race without something and i want it to be special!

The Trophy sounds good, but i think you'd get people moaning that its the same trophy all the time and they want it personalised for each race lol

I think a unique trophy for each Group 1 race should be introduced into the game. Check my previous thread on the subject:-

I'm using Pauls flat schedule and for the jumps I'm using a mixture of Pauls, Ubars, and Simpleminds and it works brilliantly, love racing at Pontypool created by Simpleminds, I have saved them all into one nice bundle :D
