It reminds me of the old Godolphin Seven Stars competition (particularly the choosing of 2-y-os not named). I remember being on the leader board very early one year, but peaked too soon and slid further and furtherhttps://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/25959633/mawatheeq-retired-to-stand-at-nunnery-stud?post_id=468417349#468417349Hi Blackbarn, great stuff, thanks.

You have to pick 10 horses from all H's horses trained in UK, Ireland and France. You must pick 4 2year olds and the rest from the olderhttps://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/25959633/mawatheeq-retired-to-stand-at-nunnery-stud?post_id=468413333#468413333Hi Johnny, the comp is open to all Shadwell employees, plus it seems Hamdan's trainers although not many enter.

This is one of the most challenging comps in racing, hence Marcus doesn't enter. Nearly everyone else does of course.

I thought they would try him at about 5k. A nice pedigree, but is he likely to get 2yo's? How much would he have been handicapped by being trained by the Pimms-swigging Marcus Tregoning?!https://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/25959633/mawatheeq-retired-to-stand-at-nunnery-stud?post_id=468292449#468292449That has about summed up what I was thinking Pot M.
