similar to super stable for last years spring carnival but this one is for the sydney autumn carnival!!

it doesnt have a league, its just called a watch list!! the code is 321493...feel free to join everyone!!

you also get to pick a jockey for your stable!! ive got brad rawiller, because he is one of the best in australia, but its probably silly picking him, because he wont get a stack of good rides...unlike williams, oliver, boss, brown, shinn etc.

i was thinking of getting jeff lloyd..geez hes doing well in sydney

This is hard to pick a goos stable.
I only have 25k left with one open horse to pick, but i already have one 25k horse, so i don't really want two.

Guess i'll have to downgrade one of the others.

1. She's Meaner $02. Portillo $03. Forensics $04. Viatorian $05. Magnus $06. Devil Moon $07. Niconero $08. Red Lord $09. County Tyrone $010. Cefalu $011. OLIVER, Damien $0

Olly has 2nice rides today so went with him, Im warming to She's Meaner and Portillo is a very nice cheap option. Forensics is going good and Viatorian hasnt been far behind.
In the league box I posted that I wanted to trade for Magnus, just realised I had him LOL forget when I got him! Devil Moon and Niconero are sure to run some places imo while Cefalu is a very cheap buy as is my other Syd Cup contenders Red Lord and County Tyrone.

I'm in but will get a big fat zero week one - as none of my chaff bandits and jockey were going around in the nominated races. Still I have taken a long term view, given the limited nature of trades etc, that over the life of the competition I'll do OK.

Coming from a DreamTeam background, the strategy is quite different - having a duck egg one week isn't such a bad thing - anyway that's what I keep telling myself. Given the prizemoney structure of the races I guess you've got to get your stable to:

• peak for the Slipper, Derby and Doncaster (a minor placing here is worth as much as winning other races)
• be a bit more judicious in your trading to coincide with the above
• pick a gender balanced stable given the number of "mares" only races
• pick horses that can endure a long campaign (middle distance/stayers/derby types)
• hope your jockey doesn't get suspended.

I guess I'm telling everyone what they already know. Time will tell whether starting off with a zero week one is a disaster or not.

Improvements in the game: Should be able to select a trainer as per the jockey scenario.

Good luck guys.
