Last night my Mentor nyracinggrl39 (Sharon) won her first trainer tournament race in the All Good Trainer Tournament. Competing in The Sammy Baugh Ungraded Cup, Fager's Dream Girl won her first start at 7 furlongs impressively in a time of 1:21:78. As a current student of Sharon's, I wish her continued success. Congrats Sharon and thank you for taking the time to help those of us who need it.

Here's to many more wins for a top notch member of the HRF community! Quite an impressive debut. Fagers Dream Girl looks like she's a runner. Best of luck in the future with the Dreamy one and the whole stable!

Oh, I wasn't aware. I'll have to seek out your race and view. I'm sooooooooo happy for you, especially since this was your very first win.
I remember when my, Royal Danish gave me my first win. How it felt. The thrill and excitment of it all. There were others to follow.
Then, I went many months seeking a win from any of my other horses in my ten horse stable. I think it was a six month wait.
When it finally happened, I had that same moment of happiness.
You're on your way, Sharon. No looking back. We'll be wishing you the best of luck as a horse owner and trainer in the months to come. You are a friend to so many and deserve the victory. I'm sure you're a good mentor. No doubt about it.

I want to thank everybody for those kind words. When I went and read every post on here, I started crying because some of you have really helped me when I needed it and I appreciate that. When Fagers Dream Girl won her first race by 6 1/4 , I was so estatic I couldn't believe it. When she won her second race(Silver Charm Ungraded Cup) by 4 1/4, I knew she was good and I couldn't believe I was on my way to hopefully finally winning a trainer tourney. I go back and watch the replays all the time of her two races and I am proud of her for putting me in the winner's circle. I have overcome so many obstacles with my other horses that she gave me the boost I needed and hopefully if she wins, I can actually call myself a trainer. Don't get my wrong, I know she will place in the top 4 in the final and I will be able to wear that trainer tourney badge very proudly. You guys are the best and I couldn't ask for a better horse racing fantasy game to be a member of.
On another note, I finally got my 10 jockey ride winner badge and that means a lot to me too. I have been working so hard inbetween training my horses for races entering jockey tourneys so I could get it. Well, now I have it and I will be working on my 25 ride badge. I know it will take some time but I will get there.

Yeah, I just checked each horses races, similar speed ratings. But I think they both will be in the final.
I also forgot that I have a little monster in this tourney who is in the last two races.
I'm still pulling for Sharon to win, I'll take second. Chivalry is not dead.
Vasdef is a gentleman, that's why Vasdef used the dueling gloves. LOL

Thanks for the mention of my horse Daaka. I must warn people that for future tournaments that she is potentially a really good horse. My only concern in this tournament is that the first race was in her best condditions Heavy. The final is on fast. Tonight she races again and this will be a better judge of the potential in the final.
But come on Champ!!!

You have a really good horse there. Champagnesupernova is one of my all-time favorite songs.

Another congratulations to, Sharon and her undeafeated filly, Fager's Dream Girl. Getting off fast from her number eleven post position, taking the lead and never looking back was impressive to see. Both races were easy wins. Just like workouts. No contest.
Since she ( FDG ) had energy left in the, Silver Charm, she'll have no trouble handling the added distance in the Final, which I predict she'll win. I wish her and all the trainers that make it to the final, good luck.

"Champagnesupernova is one of my all-time favorite songs."
I'm glad you liked my horse naming ability. and I agree it is one of the best ever songs.

@ Doug, what kind of handicapping is that? You haven't seen that last two races and you're giving it to FDG already.
Sheesh. LOL
@Steve,Emerson,Motron,Daaka and especially Doug
MEET ME At Challenge Buddy. assuming my horse even comes out of the gate.
Anyway I'm pulling for Sharon in this one. Cuz she's nice and she's not in the MAFIA.
Well, I don't know, she is from New York. LOL
46 min 17 sec
You're right. Soooooooooooo right. This is the way it looks to me today. This early prediction goes against my own personal handicapping procedures when at the track. Things change from day to day, that's for sure. I need last minute news. That's why I don't start making Kentucky Derby predictions this soon, as was asked in another thread. I will update my thoughts on this final after the other prelims are in. Good luck to everyone. Glad you caught this and brought it to my attention. Not fare to others in the tournament.

@Steve your horse did good, you're in the final.
@Doug I was just kidding, anyway Mod's horse only posted a 100SR, so I think Sharon's FDG will still take the final.

I told my rider to avoid traffic at all cost, so he decided to run an extra furlong. LOL

Flyingdaaka--I am not showing any favoritism here. I watched the race with Champgnenova in it and yes, that horse is quite impressive. Fagers Dream Girl has won both of her races in style and with plenty of energy left. She is like that is all of her training races. I won't say which horse will win because I don't want to cause any hard feelings but I think FDG does have the upper hand with spectacular finishes. Have you watched them yet? If not, go take a look. It will be anybody's race but I do know this, FDG will be there at the finish whether it be finishing first, second, third, or fourth. She has already won races and there is only one left as of tonight so she has earned her spot in the final.
Everybody else- I didn't forget your posts and I really appreciate everybody that is pulling for me. Less than a week to go and I am really excited to see the outcome of the final for the All Good.

Flyingdaaka has viewed Champagnenova's last race. It was not a good effort. Flyingdaaka hereby appoints favoritism over to NYracinggirls horse. That horse has looked the most impressive to date in this tournament and Flyingdaaka hereby declares it is her tournament to win or lose.

I am most distressed at Champs run last night. But I did notice Vasdef sneaking about my stable with several empty Macdonalds wrappers. Me thinks it was sabotage!!!
Either that or my horse is the most inconsistant Filly in the world.
57 min 28 sec
True Steve, yes you probably did see Vasdef sneaking around your stable, however, he was merely attempting to perform lowly chores in various stables for points. Vasdef is in a situation, not terribly different from Flyingdaaka's where points are low, and Vasdef is offering his services in other's stables for points. Yes, your filly looked great her first race, but ran as if she were one of Flyingdaaka's pieces of garbage last night. You need to work on diciplining your filly before championship night.
5 weeks 4 hours
Yes Steve, Vasdef has been known to sneak about, in the dark of night, to do his research.
However, before the race, Vasdef was merely giving Champagne some meat tenderizer.
If you haven't heard, The Flying one has a great recipe for Horse Chow Mein and Frostbite has a special Barbeque sauce.
If you want the supernova to do well in the final, just show her a pair of chopsticks, she'll get the message.
There's no need for Daaka's disciplinary methods.......yet.

Any ideas on what went wrong there guys? can .5 f make such a difference to a horse. He ran 107 from behind horses one night and 87 without going near another horse last night. Any help would be appreciated.
2 hours 18 min
First off he's 2 so inconsistancy could be an issue or a number of things. First race was on a heavy surface and last night was on fast. That in my opinion is the biggest factor. He obviously likes the heavy condition but i wouldn't panic only second race and as i say hes only 2. Distance is another factor as well as training inbetween races.
