 Balboa - Top Class Sprinter
Here is my current Sprinter BALBOA... my best 7f horse I've had in many games. 4 yo now and unbeaten in 25 starts - He's my Black Caviar.... I called him Balboa been a son of my first game horse Rocky.

 Re: Balboa - Top Class Sprinter
Thanks Paul... Ghost - I've never done the league.. I guess I've never gotten into that side of things.. Here is a quick update of BALBOA - he is a serious monster of a horse... I hope I get good offspring with him but I wont be retiring him just yet ! In his 5yo season he clocked up 40 wins from 40 starts.. he extended out to 9f which surprised me.. It was a season in which he raced mostly at 8f.

 Re: Balboa - Top Class Sprinter
Lucky I've only got into it the last six months, before that I didn't have no interest in it and only done about 1 week of breeding for one season then got hooked. It's fun.

 Re: Balboa - Top Class Sprinter
It's a shame that the horse of the year awards are judges on prize money won, not actual performance.. This guy should have picked up horse of the year every year !! The only time anything came within 2 lengths of him was because he chased down the leaders, but would win by at least a length running away !!
