Growing Up Green Series ATT: Junior Players!
Inspired by the excellent idea created by Kelly L Haggerty in the Green All Over Series. If you are a new player please check that out.
This competition is for JUNIOR players ONLY. If you graduate to Intermediate during the competition, you will keep the points you've already earned but will be unable to earn more.
The contest consists of 4 races on the turf in weeks 8, 11, 14, and 16 at Junior High. Please note these are different weeks to the newbie version of the contest so they aren't stealing the spotlight from each other!
Players will earn points for finishing in the top four spots (4 points for a win, 3 for 2nd, 2 for 3rd, and 1 point for 4th).
Points will accumulate over the series, and there will be prizes for the 3 players that accumulate the most points.
In the event of a tie, I will provide the $SIM and GP prize advertised to both/all of the tied players and the lease portion of the prize will be calculated on a countback (ie. the player with the most 1sts, then the most 2nds, then the most 3rds).
All of the races are open, 3yo and up and on the grass. There is one catch. In order to be eligible to earn points, horses must have been claimed (via a claiming race) by the Junior player for $50k or less in either year 60 or 61. Horses that have not been claimed can still run for the purse money, but will be ineligible to earn prizes.
SERIES RACES
Week 8: 6 furlongs
Week 11: 1 1/16 miles
Week 14: 7 furlongs
Week 16: 1 1/8 miles
PRIZES
All owners of horses who win a race in the series will be gifted one free breeding to Valar
Overall Points Prizes
1st: $250,000 & 15,000 GPs & 2 year racing lease plus first foal of 2yo Stakes Late Bloomer Firework, 3 free breedings to your choice of Jack Ryder's Studs (PM Jack to claim refund for fees)
2nd: $150,000 & 10,000 GPs & 2 year racing lease plus first foal of 2yo Allowance Late Bloomer Appendices, 2 free breedings to your choice of Jack Ryder's Studs (PM Jack to claim refund for fees)
3rd: $100,000 & 5000 GPs & 2 year racing lease plus first foal of 2yo Allowance Late Bloomer With All My Soul, 1 free breeding to your choice of Jack Ryder's Studs (PM Jack to claim refund for fees)
TRANSITION PRIZE:
Post here if you transition from new player to junior player during the course of the competition.
The highest scoring transition player will receive 1 free breeding to their choice of Darcy McBride's stallions
Standings will be posted on this thread as the contest progresses. As with Kelly's thread, if any other players would like to donate prizes, sponsor additional races for the series, or tout legitimate claimer prospects, feel free to post here also.

Re: Growing Up Green Series ATT: Intermediate Players!
If you graduate to Junior during the series, you can enter whichever races are remaining in the series. The points you win from the newbie competition won't carry over though.

Re: Growing Up Green Series ATT: Junior Players!
Hey, thanks for the invite and holding this series for Junior Players. I have managed to do some last minute claiming to get some horses to enter. I'm not sure they are up to it but I'm happy to be entering and excited to see what happens. Wishing everyone all the best, Good Luck. Cheers

Re: Growing Up Green Series ATT: Junior Players!
I have had an anonymous donation of 500k. Should I split it between the current prizes, or is there another prize we should add to the list? Open to suggestions!

Re: Growing Up Green Series ATT: Junior Players!
My suggestion would be to add a Turf Mile race to the series, a fourth place prize and then split any remaining money between the current prizes.
Thank you anonymous donor!

Re: Growing Up Green Series ATT: Junior Players!
I'm happy with extra prize money. Maybe add more races next year and If you did add more races this year please make it in the later weeks of the competition to give some of us time and a chance because not all of us already have claimers that qualify for these races. Thanks
