When the SIM makes your day

Post by Cleo Patra »

So today my car decided it didn’t need an alternator anymore and stopped on the way to the races (I’m a jockey in real life). Queue panic trying to get to the track in time for my first of five races.

Then in the third race I had my first ever race fall (I’ve had one other on track buster after the race but I don’t count that). The mare blundered out of the gates and I got smacked with a few hooves. I’m okay thankfully!

But all the panic and stress and bruises was totally made better with Giant winning the SC Classic. He’s now my favourite fake horse. Usually when I have a terrible real life day then I also have a terrible SIM day, but today was freakin awesome.

So glad you’re ok!

Congratulations on your SC Classic win! I saw this thread and thought, yes the SIM has made my day too with two G1 wins in the final results for me of this year, including a first SC. Happy SIM day together!

Good to hear you’re ok.

That was a brilliant race to win, congrats! I admit I was surprised, but considering his pedigree, I shouldn’t have been. So many nice horses in the race, Giant trounced them! Well done!
