Its only banter please no one take offence.

Once Fahris took up the running the pace was good Paul. I think he took them along at 30mph? The time is pretty quick. 4:40 would be a very quick time on G/F imo.

I should have uploaded him at 4 and then tried to win it every season. Maybe his offspring can. However all those in behind can obviously improve and at that distance you can breed horses lengths better in one generation.

Well done to mikey with the POW win! Terrible rides to Paul's horse and to Get It Bits N Bobs but that's racing!

What's the hype about this Yima horse as well? Maybe she just got lucky at Epsom. :P

7 winners. As expected nowhere near as good as last week :mrgreen:!

Standout performances for me this week.

Teliko for his maiden win. Nice end to his short career.
Gerra/Nortia in the sprints. 8/8 in all 5/6f Group races this season. Now I've probably jinxed the team and no doubt they won't win another till the end.
Atoja in the Royal Hunt Cup. Under 1:39 carrying 9st 9 - don't think any other miler went faster (and they were carrying less weight to boot) aside from Joe's horse. Note to self. Never run in a handicap race where the handicapper has an entry :lol:!

As for Yima, well giving up 6 lbs to the entire field and only Ya Filly beat her. Says it all really 8).

Congrats to Joe and Zarlema. Back to back G1 victories in the mile. I'm hoping to be a little more competitive there with the new uploads!

Also to Mikey for winning 2 G1s with front running horses. That's pretty hard to do in my book.

Thats why i put him in Matt u said there would be no pace & thought he may get a place but got 5th to far for him really
Well done Matt

Thanks everyone, watching the races I was a bit disappointed expected a few to do a bit better than they did. But then came POW which made me feel a bit better.
Another tough group 1 performance however id rather be in front and be lucky then behind and be unlucky (sorry paul) lol. Had so much on lately so not sure ill be uploading no new horses as ive made a BEEP up with my game thought id backed up files when making a minor change and never did so games not working currently working. ive enough bad horses to get rid of and these cant be any worse to upload so maybe handicappers at best hopefully.

Good week for me with 3 Royal winners :D

Zarlema was handed the St James Palace on a plate, he was in the right place at the right time and nothing got near him, hopefully he silenced those who labelled him a slow soft ground miler! He will take on the older horses next.

Bonduba, as expected, made a mockery of 105 carrying 10st in the King George handicap, finally put in a decent performance, Group 1 horse in a handicap, not sure where to go with him now.

Was nice to turn Andy over for a change! with Raloonba, I did fancy her, she was unlucky two runs back and managed to stay out of the places last time so she was very well handicapped in the Hunt Cup.

Went close in the Coventry too, Hot Hawk ran a blinder but even with the rail, just couldnt get past the winner from a top stable.

Crucifix ran another blinder, she has been unlucky not to win a race, had it been more truly run I think she would have went close, there wouldnt be much between her and Zarlema at home.

Feat Ping is just a staying machine, contender for best horse in the league I think, might have to give him 140!

Highlight of the week for me though, was Sharp Reply winning the Wokingham from two pounds out of the handicap! Big well done to Teleprompter, and to the handicapper who was slated for the opening mark of 84, turns out he wasnt far wrong ;)

Well done to all the winners and placers.

My first ever G1 winner in the fillies 8f coronation stakes. Very slow run race, but Lilac Rose hit the front with 2f to go and just managed to hold on. I am absolutely chuffed to bits.

The rest of my donkeys are still running.

For a 1st time trainer, it makes the league a worthwhile experience.

Well done Wannabe, Lilac Rose is a good filly, I thought after the first week she was sure to win one of the 3yo Fillies mile Group 1s. She deserved it.
