Not even sure the league will take place. Playing the game more experimentally and trying different things with breeding and also playing D3 as well though wife and family mean I can't really get into it in a big way. That's why SO5 is great - fits with the stop start nature of life! Definitely a nice horse there PJ and I'm sure one that will bring much success ala Northern Dancer to your stayers.

 Re: stayer question
Nice horse there Paul Sure he would start some great jumping lines, specially 4m+ stayers. But i know you are a Flat guy at heart.
