Am I right in thinking that those horses with less than three runs will be scratched?

When I said by Week 13 all horse's that would be taking part in Group 1 Handicaps in week 13 should and still need to have run 3 Times.

This Race was added after my statement and I still stand by my statement this race is taking part in week 7 two weeks after new uploads I would like to think this would not be the Case for this race matt but that is up to Leon And Jamie.

Can we get a clarification on the rule please before this weeks deadline?

Not so urgent now as I have redirected my Carter Handicap entry to another race.

Fair enough though I don't think it's right if a horse with one run wins the race. The rule was introduced so horses could be handicapped properly but there is an exception for this race? Doesn't add up

im gonna withdraw mine as I agree with keith think mine was a cert but happy to play to the rules

I've only just noticed this, I didn't know there was a three race rule for this race.

I will be disappointed if my horse that has run two races get's kicked out, because if I wanted my horse well h'capped I could have ran her on the grass ( not the best on grass) and her h'cap would have gone down I think by 12 pounds or more.

Please please please can she stay in the race. One of her big targets of the season. She's got top weight. I would love to know how she gets on with top weight.

I Said before the season started that I wanted a horse in week 13 to have at least 3 runs before entering the G1 Handicaps myself and Matt discussed this but that was before this race was added but I think it should also be the rule for this race.


Gray

Will have to be 3 runs for this as that is what everyone wanted for the group 1 handicaps

Why have a dirt h'cap when there's no dirt racing, so the only way I could get a runner in this race was to Cheat.

So if this race is run next season then everyone is happy if I run my horse 4 times after the group one Golden Shaheen to get super well h'capped horse because Miss would now be running of 90 instead of 112.

Oh well it's on to the Fillies and Mares Sprint.

Sorry Ghost this Race was not part of the original schedule I doubt it will be in next years schedule unless its moved to week 13 me,matt and paul had a discussion about making sure a horse had run three times before entering group 1 Handicaps and I think its best for all trainers who want to be champion that week 13 which has such big races and prize money that the Handicaps cant be won by a once ran horse who may of run below or above its best distance and be well handicapped.

I think its just fair that the 3 run rule applies to this race and any future G1 Handicaps that way so we should have at least a true and fair Trainers Championship.


Gray

Yes that's right all the other trainers have cheated.

Ok thanks Gray for the reply.
