This is my 4th season now and I've had some good high's but far too many lows especially on the first day when you realise that your horses are actually useless, I was just as confident last year and ended up with 1 or 2 wins from 200 races!! But then again I get bored winning everything (being a chelsea season ticket holder dosen't help in this case!) and I was happy even winning banded races.....
This is the first year I have properly trialed and put plenty of effort into it with over 500 horses coming in and out of my ck so I am hoping for good things but there are still plenty of major players in the league such as rich/kenny/padraig/hemz/david..... I can see padraig being very hard to beat considering he knows how to win an sopl league!

I've got an excellent record overall myself I think; 100%!
Granted, i've never had a runner... But 100% is 100%

maybe this is your year to arrive nick!!
i got 2 wins in first season which lasted 9 weeks (??? not sure thats correct) and i think i would of won at least 5 maybe even 10 if league had finished as id just uploaded some good horses.
so in my mind i predicted 5 wins minimum last season so i want to be improving on that this season. i just want each season i play to show improvement. group wins or festival wins etc would be bonuses.

Same as normal scotty! Yeh i'm hoping for a few wins which I reckon should be achievable as there are no more 30 runner races every week! I'm thinking my stayers which have traditionally always been pretty decent should pick up some group races, Gold Cup is the aim with johnny corleone, this horse is a beast in ck, I'm sure you will improve and there are races to be won everywhere, If I don't win 1 race in USRA i'll give up!

yeah exactly as you say. i got 2 wins in my first 8 weeks as a trainer and many places. these were in big fields against some good trainers. things seem a little better this time around, more realistic number of runners and things seem more open. i think everyone is going to enjoy this season!!!
