copied to single sire thread and confirmed in tracker and in debut race and just a note - the timing couldnt be worse - its likely a major hurricane (cat3+) is going to hit florida and while i normally have already booked my flight to vegas... i got too damn fat during the pandemic, so i will likely be driving north when Ian hits (and when the races are getting locked down). arrrgh please keep posting any remaining entries, it just might be there will be a delay to updating the tracker |

My first runner came in dead last! Not great! Yes - Florida Riviera had a bad trip and it looks like your dirt horses performed reasonably well in a tough division. Right now, it looks like worldclass is leading the way for our residency race vs the world. I got very lucky to be leading with MATANZAS DANCER (keep in mind that any of the credits i win will go to the person that would have been in that position but i will get co-equal bragging rights for the position. so if someone were second to me - they would move up to first and the others behind them would move up as well) congrats to our guys that scored some money with their horses: Worldclass, me, dingo333, aladar, and dingo333 again! TREASURE BEACH really dominated as a sire in the contest here is the update page for our website - still finishing up some updates, so feel free to revisit later. floridaracingclub.weebly.com/fl-sire-contest-scratch-bred-and-single-sire.htmlIt appears that one of the dirt races had some strong non-contest entries that blocked people out of the money. It is unfortunate, but a part of the contest is being able to perform against other non-contest horses. There should hopefully be enough time in 6 months for people to let their horses shine. I wish everyone the best of luck! |

Hell yea. I'm ready to run my 3 entries into the ground and ship them all over the world for hopes of big prize $$! An idea that came to me as I plan my horses futures...maybe races IN Florida gets double the prize money towards the standings? For future contests of course.

For future contests of course. whenever you can get it in a FL only race i think you are cutting down its competition to give it - its best shot, but also going to small fields that are non-fl will do that too... lots of ways of going about it definitely something to consider (doubling fl race income) - but just as an fyi, i was always hoping to keep contests as simply as possible... digging through and doing math might lead to mistakes or big time usage but we will see how it goes! it will be interesting to see how people ending up competing in the contest |

had to take a bit of a breather after the hurricane (and work is slammed as well)... I plan on checking the board at least once a week and within the next two months narrow down our options for contests to run for next year.
feel free to start any horse/game-related threads that interest you - either in the general (that is open to the public) or in the members only area.
example - i have a chef de race topic to discuss chefs in the members area - i am thinking of starting a thread to keep a journal of my thoughts for my G3 winner and the various race options i am considering, be on the look out for that if it might interest you
