Breeders' Series races

When can we expect the Qualifiers Lists to be out? The first set of races are in just over 3 weeks.

Shanthi - Thanks for releasing the Qualifiers Lists.

For new owners, here is a post from Shanthi about the rules for entering horses in the BS races (I have been in FF for a number of years and always have to look back to ensure that I remember the rules):-

BTW - Also for new owners, the lists can be found by going to the following link:-
finalfurlong.org/bsqual.php?race=0

I think the numbers are off - possibly down to me running the script wrong. The incorrect math should apply to the whole list, though, so no big deal.

Thanks for re-posting the rules. :slight_smile:

Shanthi - I am having a problem with Entries into two of these races.

I was trying to enter [color=blue]El Padrino (finalfurlong.org/viewhorse.php?horse=24533) into Race #41, Rainbow Quest Breeders’ Stakes. He is qualified for the race (#6), however, he doesn’t show up in the list of horses I can enter in this race. He was at my Farm and I shipped him to Aqueduct by Air this evening. He should arrive at Aqueduct tomorrow, however, when I look at his personal page, it says that he will arrive on the 28th, which is probably why I can’t enter him in the race. If you look at my Budget page, the amount charged is for Shipping by Air from my Farm to Aqueduct.

The other horse is [color=blue]Vulpecula (finalfurlong.org/viewhorse.php?horse=23102) in Race #42, Cross Roads Breeders’ Stakes. He is qualified for the race (#18), however, he too doesn’t show up in the list of horses I can enter in this race. When I checked his personal page, he was at the Aqueduct Boarding Farm. I ended his Boarding but I still can’t enter him in the race.

I know that, as you are in the UK, you won’t see this until tomorrow and don’t know if there is anything you can do about getting them entered in these races, but, I would be grateful for anything you can do.

I’ll look into it tonight when I get home. :slight_smile: Wasn’t online at 4am to check it then, sorry. :wink:

Shanthi - I am having a problem with trying to enter [color=blue]Vulpecula (finalfurlong.org/viewhorse.php?horse=23102) in the Breeders’ Series 3yo Dirt races?

He is on the Qualifiers list (18th) for those races
He is Nominated for the those races.
If you go to his Horse Info page and look at his Upcoming Races, one of them is the 11f Spectacular Bid Breeders’ Stakes (Gr. 1) for 3yo on December 26th.

However, if you go to the Enter Races page and select the above race (#49 on December 26th), he does not show up in the drop down list of horses I can enter in that race.

It was the same thing with him in the first two races in that Series, on November 28th (you manually entered him for me in that race) and December 12th.

Am I missing something? He is leased from Generous Bloodstock, however, I have had no problems with entering other leased horses in other Breeders’ Series races.

Should be fixed now - tweaked the query on the race entry page that checks qualification.

Here are the standings as we head into the last round of these races:-
