    Also onya VC :wub:  beaut captain's lead.. you show that form research wins the day :) it's not about first and second faves on the tote.

     

    Of course form research wins the day Maria. That's why some horses are favourites. A lot of people have researched the form and settled on the same horses. Are you trying to imply we don't do form research?? Really??? This competition only pays out on winners - so trying to luck out on longshots is a risky system at best. Speaking personally, I just try to pick the horses I think will win - and I'm sure my teammates do the same. We as a team thoroughly enjoyed the comp - hope you guys did too. See you in the Spring Comp!! :)

    More intrigued how Shirayukihime is grey. How is that possible when there are no grey genes in 3 preceding generations? Skewbald colouring of foal is probably due to a mutated gene. Wasn't there a chestnut horse racing in 1990s-2000s, possibly trained at Foxton, that had a large white patch?

    Also interested in that - I suspect that it is an error in recording correct colours of foals at birth. [ or the unthinkable in our day and age, that perhaps the recorded parentage is not correct; this could all be checked relatively easily and I imagine they have the DNA microchipping system that we have??] Certainly warrants some checking!!
