Guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Posted February 9, 2009 i agree with vic we are making it too complicated and maybe too serious why not get back to the org.idea 500mls+ no entry money no prize just the thought of having the best yearling at that distance so it excludes many but we cant please all oh my distances are 470mls to 580mls
OLDYELLOW Posted February 9, 2009 Author Report Posted February 9, 2009 surely better to have 20 people in at 450 mile plus than 5 in at 500 mile the poll has been started and will run for 7 days

My first post says I'm in regardless, I'm not taking my bat home cause it ain't 100% the way I want..... but we can get a concensus and I see oldyellow is gauging opinion by the poll. As Hotrod says, Oldyellow you have a fair idea of what the feeling is (the poll will give you more definition) when you are satisfied set out the rules and I'm sure a lot of us will support your great idea.
OLDYELLOW Posted February 9, 2009 Author Report Posted February 9, 2009 cheers Albear i feel better to have 20 involved at 450 plus miles than 5 involved at 500+ miles , although yearling arent fully mature which im sure all distance fanciers worth there salt will know , it will come down mainly to managent and been able to condition for the intended race making it more intresting as racing a unknown quantity hence yearling challenge
Guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Posted February 9, 2009 its not about picking up the bat as you say allbear i am only agreeing with vic that the org idea was 500ml yearling and that it might be getting a bit complicated as soon as money gets involved thats what happens it should be for fun and the chance to say i had the best yearling over 500mls on basics 2009 thats all now i have 3 chances to send to over 500mls 580/610/728 but i will chose not to send my yearlings as they are only yearlings for 1 year they are old birds for the rest of there lifes that doesnt mean i wont pick a couple and try them at 580ml but i dont want any pressure to do that

But my opinion also is it's a bit of fun, a great idea let's support oldyellow whatever, let's all have our say but not withdraw if it ain't a perfect fit. Was not having a personal go just expressing my opinion. Hope to be competing with you (and Vic!) Best wishes

Best wishes thats exactly what i think allbear and have told oldyellow that if its the 450/500 would suit me as the jump to 580mls i think is just a bit much but yes iam in
