Post Where are my 2 year olds?
Hi

If memory serves. They usually come through a year later. Unless you have no room for them in your stable.

Thanks Mr Rhodes! :wink:

Seems peculiar tho!.. I have been champion trainer on the flat past 4 seasons, Looking to build up a decent flat orienteered yard and then target the best races on the NH, A typical example would be a home bred that was not quite G1 grade on flat so i sent him hurdling and he finished up rated 176 over hurdles, Puts me at a little disadvantage not being able to give my best 2 year olds a few runs and target good early races, Suppose i can always run on the AW!

They turned up on the 8th April! So i presume from now all my 2 years olds will be a year late (Adds to realism) And turn up in April rather than January, Which is fine!
