4645 Did your ponies burn up the track or just collapse?

I will be away until Monday afternoon so I will be the last responder. Shall we all meet for a drink to cry?

Be1stfarms had a good week - two wins and two seconds from four starters. My Washinton-bred Flag The Gold won (OK it was a 4 horse field of cpu horses) but he was claimed by that rascally Kingpony and is out of the contest. HA! Lucky for the rest of you! I also had a bargain bred 2 YO break her maiden first time out and she came back and outran her breeding to finish 3rd in a stake this week. She still has a cpu value of 0 so that should give you an idea of how bad the field was.

My bright spot was 2 YO colt by Zenzational, Them Peaches, winning the baby stake in Idaho. He's now 2/2. That makes me happy!

Had a light racing week, but a fairly solid one. 11 starters...3-0-2-1-3. So only two out of the points and 2 of the 3 winners were not expected by the oddsmakers, so I'm pretty happy. I like the idea others had of naming a horse of the week, so here's mine:

HOTW - November Shadow - This three year old daughter of Medicean broke her maiden in a turf sprint at odds of 13/1. Not sure how much more she has in her, but she's well bred and will get a shot at finding some success in allowance company.

Sorry for missing the last few weeks, but with Yochem not updating his YOSS page for a couple of weeks, hunting down results is so much of a chore I just could not be bothered lol ... don't ya hate my honesty!

Well Rob was back online this week so I can tell you all that I ran 46 horses this week for ....

5 firsts - highlights being the 107 sp#'s recorded by a starter allowance and a claimer, ACTUALLY(KY) & SOMNAMBULE(AUS)

Also had 7 seconds, 3 thirds and another 12 in bp bearing positions, leaving 19 also rans.

425 bps earned ... still more needed for the next sim champion I guess!

Got another promising 2nd place finish from a 2yo debut @ 18-1 (Will It End 85670).

Not a bad week overall, especially when I set the bar so low. But last 2 weeks have been encouraging.

I just realized when doing my training and instructions, etc that I only had this horse set at 98%. I've never utilized it before and was thinking it was something I was going to mess with starting this week, apparently I started last week, lol.

Does anyone know if the riding % means anything?
