Hi all! I may be second in terms of the number of horses listed above, but Vaucluse Farms had a great year. I raced a number of Eclipse Nominees (seven of the horses listed above) and had the highest ‘on the board’ percentage of any leading stable along with prizemoney that put me second despite racing 1/3 of the races of the leading stable (just two million ahead) and having a relatively small racing stable. Would really love to be your 2015 Stable of the Year - it was my best year by a country mile playing the game and this award would be the icing on the cake! Thanks for considering! :smiley:

A little plug for CDS. :slight_smile:
We had a spectacular year as well. We had a bit of a slow start after the training code was changed but we quickly adapted and became a leading stable again. In addition to those mentioned above i just wanted to add that CDS ran 5 breeders cup winners including Sponsored (BS triple winner) , Winning Secret, Black Heartbreak, Daily Special, and I Can Only Imagine (3 of 4 2yo bc races
offerd). We also ran Irish Gold to 3 stake wins including g1 Lockinge Stakes.

We had an excellent year too.
