Ha HA...you read my mind. I'm always down!

British Champs Day Route Race posted - 10K entry 19:00 10/21 Santa Anita Dirt 1 1/4 Mile

Site needs to get back to the added money. 20K added races etc. this 1500 BC stuff doesnt even cover shoes

Lets go

Race is only for fillies???

[Tockyocky Racing]

I'm a believer that fillies should race with fillies and colts with colts. I also see there is no 2yo colt only option which there should be just like other ages. Would be even better if you had the option to include maidens and no gelded horses etc. The site has the ability to do so.

[Tockyocky Racing]

who needs their solid filly ran over by a freshly gelded waste of a horse with no future value on its career path spiraling down from grade 1 hopes to 6k claimers

Now that site doesn't collet a percentage from any purses it is hard for us to add money to races . Good Luck to everyone but Toc just kidding

How high stakes do you all want. 20k entry winner take all?

[Tockyocky Racing]

The site takes the money from up front deposits Lone....game credits at that point run on a declining balance. The opportunity to attract and keep healthy racing is with VALUE!!!!!

20K added money credits again costs the site actually zero dollars upfront. It only matters when someone withdraws and even thats a stretch. Withdraws are rare.

I know what I'm talking about. You forgot why you enjoyed virtual horse racing in the first place it seems...now you a retired desk jockey I'm back....now everyone needs to elevate their game. Including you Lone!!!

Lets Go!

[Tockyocky Racing]

No Brian..be creative. Also winner takes all is not a healthy type of race for the community in the long run. If i want to do that i'll just do a match race.

[Cold Dog Soup]

Thought about doing a 100k entry race with 20k satellites but afraid we coudlnt get it to fill.

[Tockyocky Racing]

All of that works Brian just like a format of poker sites....earn your way in and direct buy in etc. However I must say to truly make exciting improvements the DD championship qualifiers need to be every other week. Since they are every week it DRASTICALLY cuts down on exciting races during the weak and the creativity of this site. If i have a good stakes Grade 1 then i have to camp out twice a week for 2 Qualifiers...cant run anything else. Etc Etc Etc.....see where I'm going?

[Cold Dog Soup]

Triple Crown races start next week. Might be a chance to do something high stakes since the qualifiers wont be running. There are other stakes scheduled but I think we can work around those. If this is soemthing you all are still interested in.

[Trunoble Lodge]

Why don't the 2yo Q races run during this period? I understand about 3yo's but 2yo races shouldn't affect those. If it is a case of less money available for the TC, then that is up to the individual players to decide.

While we're on the subject of Stakes races. Has the high action race/s been forgotten about. There should be at least one every couple of weeks. If they aren't subscribed then, fair enough, get rid of them. There seems to be this push for new ideas that the stuff that does work gets shoved out of the way and forgotten about.

I would like to see named Stakes races that are set every season. Whether these are the high action races, that is up to you. There are a few legacy ones but I feel it would mean more if the Stakes races had a name not just labelled with Stakes Race. If someone wanted to sell, breed or boast about their horse having won the Lone Cup, Cold Dog Futurity, Toc Gift etc. it would have a lot more meaning than just Open or suchlike.

I think the only stakes races that arent named are the Create Stakes. We have two traditionals stakes at the start of the season then I try to name all the other stakes after stable owners.

I will go ahead and add a 20k entry 6F race for the 13th and we can see how participation in.
