Turf Re-Route
For anyone interested, I am trying to curb my boredom by writing a series of articles on turf racing, looking back at all Grade 1 contests from the previous week. As I’ve started half way through the year I am doing a few articles first to catch up to this week, the first one of which is now up here:
https://www.simhorseracing.com/featurer ... leID=17092
I also include some under the radar horses and a stallion spotlight which this edition features Cats in the Cradle!
It looks like I might have to split week 4 into two parts (the 2nd of which will include the 1 week 5 grade 1) and then possibly I’ll have to split week 6 (which also has 9 Grade 1’s) in two as well. Which does mean the week 7 recap will be a little late since I’m only allowed to do 4 articles per week and by that point I’ll have 5 articles. Anyway, hope you enjoy reading it! If you have any feedback let me know!

Re: Turf Re-Route
I just looked ahead to see how many editions I'll end up having to split (almost all of them lol) and did y'all know that Week 16 has 20, TWENTY Grade 1's for turf routers?!?!?!

Re: Turf Re-Route
Thanks both! Really appreciate the feedback, and you’ll be glad to know I’m enjoying writing them too
He’s fantastic Nick! Only a shame we won’t get to properly see his foals flourish before he is of pensioning age, that’s why people need to pay attention to him now!
