    Thanks Tonge :good:
    I finally did my first swap last week and included a couple in Listed races at Chantilly that only gained me 80 Points they were Rainband (3rd) and L’Absolue (4th no ponts). However, like many, I did add Hurricane Lane to my Stable along with Maxfield who both scored in Group Company adding a much needed 900 points to my total.

    980 Points added

    3000 Points
    572nd

    4 Swaps remaining

    Well done to Graham and Andre also with Maxfield. :good:

    Royal Crusade was touted to win or place in the Group race at Newmarket on Saturday but in the end it was Glorious Journey (ex Godolphin) who took the honours while Royal Crusade dropped quickly to the back of the field, don’t know if anything amiss there but he looked fine in the paddock and went to post well. :unsure:

    Just updating the Leaderboard with the results we have at present and many thanks to John, Steve, Graham, Tonge and Andre for updating..

    I have no idea when any of my remaining horses will run but hope it will be some time soon.
    The lack of Bonus Races remains a mystery but hopefully we will have one soon, relying on John to give us
    the thumbs up on that information. :good: Jac

    GODOLPHIN FANTASY LEAGUE SUMMER 2021 – LEADERBOARD
    Tuesday 29th June Update

    Just waiting on points update from Mincamus as Silent Assassins takes up the lead with John Gooch now in 2nd position and Graham (BigG) breathing down their necks in 3rd place with 900 points scored this week. Andre (Euroalien) made great steps up the leaderboard with a massive 1020 points :good: while I (Triptych) also scored high with points totalling 980. Tonge is holding onto her swaps and yet still gained 500 points with Hurricane Lane who is proving to be her star stable choice.

    It just goes to show what a good clear out can do and well done to everyone who scored points this weekend.
    Still have some big meetings coming up including Sandown and Newmarket July Cup Meeting so anything can happen.

    Here is the updated Leaderboard so far…

    Silent Assassins ………..3800 Points (328th)
    John Gooch…………….3360 Points (445th)
    BigG ……………………..3340 Points (450th)
    Nathan Hughes …………3060 Points (545th)
    Triptych …………………3000 Points (572nd)
    Tonge …………… ………2980 Points (582nd)
    Euroalien ………………..2240 Points (911th)
    Steve75 ………………… 2180 Points (937th)

    Waiting for updates from….
    Mincamus …………..?

    Look forward to filling in the missing gaps soon when Mincamus updates his score as last time he was leading our mini league.

    Jac :bye:

    Hello to everyone. Hope you are all well and safe.

    Last week was rather an anti climax after what had gone before and I had only one runner which finished unplaced
    so still have 3360 Points and a Rank of 479 with of course 4 swaps left.

    I have just received in my in box the latest Godolphin Newsletter and have copied the following

    The European and US Fantasy Stable League is in full swing and competition is tight at the top! If you are playing, don’t forget to make use of your swaps and keep an eye out for our bonus races – more of those coming your way very shortly.

    Lets hope they keep their promise and we do get some bonus races to help our points along.

    Many Thanks :bye:

    Nice to hear from you John :bye: and glad to hear you gained a few more points last week..I’ll.update properly next Monday and will keep a good eye out for the promised Bonus race.

    There is currently a couple of competitions ongoing one to win the framed horseshoes of the two Derby winners Adayar and Hurricane Lane and the other to win Maxfield’s halter..so good luck if you enter those. :good:

    I do have a few runners this week at Newmarket in the shape of Star Safari, Yibir and Creative Force. Regretting swapping One Ruler out now as he runs in Listed company this week at Newmarket a good chance for him to bounce back but he still has to beat some good horses in Baaeed, Maximal and Derab..The drop to Listed is going to be a big plus for his chances so best of luck anyone who still has him in their Stable :good:

    Enjoy the racing this week I’m counting down the days to Newmarket. :rose: Jac

    Lots of Godolphin horses with chances in group races this weekend. If you’re using one of your swaps, note that Hurricane Lane has just been supplemented for a G1 in France on Wednesday, so don’t transfer him out….like I did!

    I actually transferred him in Tonge but transferred out Naval Crown who runs tomorrow. :wacko:

    Hope you managed a few Bonus Points today with Native Trail getting home by a short head to win. I got 200 points today.

    He is a handsome looking horse a real eyecatcher I did back him today and coming into the winners enclosure he didn’t look like that took too much out of him. :heart:
