The Tendurek Stakes was a "bell weather" for future success!

...maybe this is fries from my previous washing lettuce position, but hoping to someday make the grill,...maybe in a year or two asst manager ...$$$

And then look how much better idealistically has been managed since that 1st race than Splainin!

poor horses!...hold on I got some carrots somewhere....

Nice fillies you have there! Any time you can put a stakes win on a 2yo filly in its first career race (and in Week 1 no less) I'd do a happy dance and be excited about a future broodmare. All things considered, I'd definitely rather win the race than not!

Congrats John : )

Both by the same stallion too.
I know you put in a lot of effort in that learning curve that seems so daunting when joining the Sim, but you kept to it and it's paying off. A good lesson for other new players!

Thanks

I am thankful and fortunate and well guided... but certainly room for improvement and a bit stubborn still...hopefully I can guide Looker a little better than the Splainin' model.

As for Storm...he sure was good to me and sorry he is pensioned. I suppose Laura could have easily raised that fee instead of adding slots anytime she wanted and kept me away perhaps.

As for trial and error - Looker will be the 3rd time charm, hopefully as I really botched Beatrice prior to these two, poor horses! https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.ph ... ID=1626981

Maybe I can get her back on track this season.
