Cager has replaced DC Yes in the contest. DC Yes is no longer active. I had another Different Career galloper to send to Shan to finish the contest.

It would be nice if the Sim took over this idea next season and created a few races every week for different career horses as you can get stuck with these when they are too young to go steeplechasing.

I'm too late, or not.
(Aws Tabloid) all wheather sprinter.
'Aws Tabloid' looked a little stiff and awkward out there today. Have you thought about other career options?

( Dr Olympia) dir router
I wasn't too impressed with Dr Olympia's gallop. Hopefully, she will show some improvement next time, or she may never see a starting gate!

I would like to nominate my turf sprinter, Hang On Sloopy, and my turf router, Celluloid Hero. Question: does the comment ....never see a starting gate! count?

If they're ineligible, then I would like to nominate my turf router Da Do Run Run Run [Y45-Preseason Trainer: 'Da Do Run Run Run' looked a little stiff and awkward out there today. Have you thought about other career options?]

This year's contest is closed. You would need to find horses that are currently yearlings.
