Karrots - did you notice a 2 year old filly called Lady La Salle qualified yesterday at Cambridge in time of 2-05.3 for 1700 (1-58.6 mile rate).    That's smoking - if Cambridge's timing is accurate.    Is trained by Mike Berger.

You didn't mention it Sweet Lou filly. Oh yes. Looks great.

Golly there are a quite a few 2y-os coming out now hey, which I guess is good 😁

Ok, for some positive horsey talk, looks like Alex is going ahead. I’v added more posters to horses these are 2y-os nom-ed for Fri Alex/Add. Everyone will be on a horse for the Final. If your horse misses a spot you will be transferred to another. Be 2 posters per horse in final so 12 horses x 3 races x 2 posters per horse.

                               ***  Wild Card - Miki Montana & Montana Glory/Trotsfan

                         

Checking to see who is on Mr Ibiza - Dougie. Taking a look this horsey was brought for $4k at the 2019 weanling sales by Logan & Roberston. Mr Ibiza ran a nice 2nd in 1st Young Guns heat, nearly won his sale price back.

Have they L&R purchased the bargin buy of the 2019 weanling sale (now 2 y-o) & now just sold the Top lot of yearling sale . (well yes if its just Auckland sale).

Chevrons Bypass was sold for 22k same weanling sale 2019, Miki Montana also went for same price/sale.

Found interesting, not sure if others will, that a horse called Bollinger now 2y-o was passed in at weanling sale for 50k, then went on to sell at the yearling sale for $200k to J Feiss.

Ok I have added in some more posters with horsies. Still the 2y-os pacers and trotters is too early to call Top Dog.

Did a quick update, it's a changing tide. Given 2 horses to those that were on a 2y-o trotter that had moved out of top 12. Still 2 months to go tho. Thinking might add in another points based thing, eg give everyone a number & race number prior draw, eg Gamms horse Number 10 in Race 2. (so whoever horses draws that number in that race will be your horse also for Jewels day). On another note see T MacFarlane is leaving the training scene, shame, another loss for the North.

Here's the 2nd to last update for 2 y-os. The final update will be, once the final 12 have qualified, anyone that horse is not in the final 12 will be given a number PRE-draw  & that will be your horse for the final. Horses will have more than 1 poster for the final.

Along the way, have had requests from some to be on a specific horse, which have been allocated discretely. Its all for fun, & ALL points will go towards the final prize.

6th True Fantasy - Derek

Well just had to have a quick look to see which poster had been given this horse & its Derek. Looks like finally the future favourite for the Jewels 2 y-os has been revealed with this crop fillies. Nice win tonight 👍

Still the 2 y-o boys for me is yet to be given top dog title ... who will it be ... ?

Thinking how fortunate we are to be having races as usual. Last years Jewels was canceled. Hoping the Jewels gets full crowds & a big success. 

The 2 y-os is still anyones game & there will be 2y-os yet to be introduced. Have given everyone I can think of who’s posted recently-ish a horse that’s currently in Top 12. There are still horses to come on scene so those that don’t have 1 will be given 1, as will those that make it into top 12, as it changes with racing. Brief bragging rights if your runner, starts to shine as the season goes by 😁

Just something fun/light hearted. Who is on the future Jewels winner & also place getters … ? Will they come from the top of list, middle or are they not currently even be on the list yet .. Will the 2 winners be from the North or the South . Time will tell.  After the Jewels we can take a look back here & see 😁

 

Congrats if your allocated 2 y-o old made final top 12. (They still have to accept). Remember back when started this thread in Feb, we had no clue who was who & who would make cut. Don’t think will give everyone a horse that didn’t make 12, after all, its too time consuming. We have some runners that need allocating tho, Gamms maybe you might want to chose who can be on those runners … ? Regular posters maybe? Points are added to thread check your number Jewels draw. So like the Amateurs its all about points for this just for fun not $ comp. Gamms is already on 2 points along with Taupiri Wonder, Big Bang is on 1 point - pre-bonus.

Remember the other ways to pick up points for fun comp are guess how many winners Cullen will have?

Taking a quick look at numbers from stables and Cullen comes out on top with 17 so far qualified + 1 emergency.

Dunn is next with 9, including Looee who has snuck into the 4 y-o boys after a withdrawal 😄

Telfers rounding up the top 3 with 8 qualifiers + 1 emergency

Republican Party has been withdrawn after qualifying yesterday, so Mossdale Ben (Big Bang) are in 2 y-o boys.

Am going to throw my guess in now,

Cullen to take out of 3 of 9, both 2 y-o boy & girl races + 4y-o mares with Amazing Dream. Might upt it to 4 winners, but will await draw 3 y-o girls. Giving some of the others a chance if they draw inside her e.g. Darling Me, La Rosa, Life a Beach at Cambridge to lead or even trail.

Any other guesses yet or are others going to await draws? 😄
