Steward's Y41 Derby Contest

Post by The Steward »

Every year I post this game, and although participation was declining, last year it skyrocketed up! There was a 6 way tie for the win this year, what will it be next year?

The best-bred and fastest-working juveniles in the game have almost all been unleashed on the SIM, and they have posted high speed figures and excessive winning margins. What does this have to do with the Year 41 Louisville Derby?

Nearly all of next year's Derby field is already out there somewhere, having broken their maidens or run impressively in their debuts. There are already 1,000+ juveniles that have won this year. Can you pick out the 20 that will make it to the Derby?

Think of this as a year-out Triple Crown Trail where you pick all 20 horses. You must make your selections by Friday, January 30th at 12 pm Pacific.

EMAIL (using the contact us link on every SIM page!!!) me with your 20 Derby horses in alphabetical order for NEXT year. For every horse you have on your list that ends up in the race, you will get a point. Whoever gets the most points, there is a pot of 50,000 Game Points waiting. It will be divided amongst multiple winners if there are any.

Don't forget to check out fillies and horses entered for Week 12F +W13!

Please just list the horses
Horse
Horse
Horse

Instead of saying Horse, Horse, Horse in list format, or
1. Horse
2. Horse

Just alphabetical names are better! Then I can just paste it into Excel. Thanks!

Got 10, but I'm sure someone has 14-15.

It's official! Rebecca Rose Hepburn and Laura Ferguson both had 14, but TODD LUCAS came flying late with 15 entrants! I don't believe that's ever been done before. Congrats Todd!!!
