(18:12:32) markwales: and then there'll bve a couple of weeks break, in which we'll have the auctions
(18:12:32) samantha1303: is it in here just those?
(18:12:50) markwales: Yes we can do it in here, as I may have a few on the spot auctions !!!
(18:13:03) markwales: so bring your purse!!
(18:13:16) samantha1303: I WILL
(18:13:26) samantha1303: Its quite full as well

(18:14:17) samantha1303: Do we just keep all the ten we have already?
(18:14:18) markwales: Not sure if you're aware, but 'Breeding' will be coming into the game too
(18:14:26) markwales: Yes you keep all your horses
(18:14:29) samantha1303: breeding???
(18:14:43) samantha1303: who have I got to breed with?
(18:15:02) markwales: yes, I've built a breeding sim....you can breed 2 of your horses, and it will produce a foal likened to the Parents in stats and quality
(18:15:21) markwales: more on that towards the end of season 2 though
(18:15:26) Oldham: lol - depends on what standard of race you want your horses to win Sam

and a jolly good winner it is Big C !!!......

Old Blue Eyes should go from strength to strength.....returning a Rating of 97 with little experience means you have a nice colt there !!!

Yes...thanks Mark, most enjoyable even though I missed my Blackjack Magic win against the boys. Sorry I had to leave early, but I really fancy Pegasus to turn over Big George and Ceylon Sapphire, perhaps next year !!! :yikes:
