Trial Park Week 16 Stakes Idea - Need your thoughts please

Post by Trent Mcevoy »

I had a look at the week 16 schedule and I can see there is no stakes race at Trial Park for the last meeting of this racing year.

I thought it would be a good idea to have one as a sort of "Grand Final" for the Year 56.

I am happy to spend some points and create a stakes route race either a turf one or a dirt one.

Do any of you have a preference as to what type of surface turf/dirt ??

Let me know and I will go via the majority preference and create one this weekend.

Trent I’ll sponsor a stakes that week too if you’d like! You can do either the turf or dirt route and I’ll do the one that you haven’t done :)

I noticed the same. I'll be glad to sponsor one as well. Just to start getting the details going maybe we can get up to the following:

Dirt route

2yr Colt/gelding
2yr Fillies
3yr Colt/gelding
3yr Fillies

Turf Route

2yr Colt/gelding
2yr Fillies - I'll do this one. I was thinking of doing it anyway.
3yr Colt/gelding
3yr Fillies

Should they all be the same set up?

I will chip in a prize for every race that gets set up to the stable that is first to finnish out of the prize money, i.e 6th if its a stakes race.

I am a Brit......we love the underdogs :lol:

Thanks Carole, am at work now but will do it in the morning. Most likely a turf route over 1 1/4 seeing as I have no idea yet how to work out what horses like to go short route or long route it will be somewhere in between. :D

Hi William, I probably can't sponsor all of those but my suggestion would be if you want to sponsor a 3YO's up sprint race for C&G just pick dirt or turf and I will do the other one.

Didn't mean to imply that you sponsor more than 1. Just seeing of we could get several sponsors what races to might be nice.

I'll do the 3Yr+ sprint C&G on dirt.

The 1 1/4 mile dirt “Trial Park Classic” is up

Trent, you might want to message the Steward to change your races to ‘open’ races because right now they’re colts and geldings only so I’m fairly sure fillies/mares can’t enter them.
