Alright, it's on. I'm putting it on the schedule. It's called the The Great Meadowfields Match Race.

I'm out. I signed up for a match race between MC and DD. Former and reigning triple Crown winners. I did not sign up for a race of all the better horses in training of which I have several more of those myself. I'll gladly race Anybody week 2 of next season if they so desire. My goal for the year is the Stewards cup and I was willing to jeopardize that for a unique match race not for a Generic good horse race.

This is too bad though I do understand how Kent feels about this
I was a bit unsure myself with ny horse being a 3 year old fillly and Kents a 4 year old colt
But I was still going too enter for fun Even though it could have ruined mye sc chances cos this is just a game and games should not be taken too seriously but that is just my feelings and not a rule

But what happens with the race now As one of
Ems reasons to make the race was that at least DD and MC was going to be running

Sten, I would still be good for a REAL match race. I have no idea how we went from a Match race (The name of the thread!) to Em recruiting other horses Particularly since she was the one going "MATCH RACE MATCH RACE!!!!!!!"? One other person said something about other horses and that was it. I don't want to be a spoiler and could care less if I don't win, but genuinely thought is was purely a Match race which I thought would be fun

To be fair I'm actually NOT the person who recruited others. It seemed like that was the way it was heading with people mentioning Tls Belle Isle and Bhs Jimenee... specifically Sten started that train of topic, so please don't throw it on me. I was just trying to appease the masses. I will delete my race.

No, the W13 was Kent, saying "I am good with MC either week 13 or next season week 2"

So I thought W13 would be best since you seemed more flexible about entering. Sounds like the meeting will be next year instead! All good.

oh gawd, since there is an empty match race stakes for week 13, I say we make a match race between Spatula and Rathalos. Derby rematch from Y55.

Shame the race has fallen through.

But this is fine. I was worried Michael Corleone would retire, but since he's not going to we're all good.

As an aside, I think MC beats DD this year but DD beats MC next year. We'll have to wait and see.

That's my gut reaction to this year as well... it would be a HUGE ask for a 3yo filly. Next year will be more evenly matched which is awesome!!
