Need judge! (anyone wanna scratch..? this is a hideously big field..)

[sam]

I would but this is Shelly's last chance to get into the Spring Cup XP

I hate big fields too lol Especially for the maidens!

[Snowflake]

lol same here. im not too worried about the spring cup.. i still have three year olds that are G5 lol

[azzy]

I can judge. Mind if I do tomorrow, probably around noon for me, so iiiiinnn... 16 hours or so?

I have a basic idea of who's placing what, but I want to see the final stuff. :]

[Snowflake]

No problem, thanks!
Ahhh i'm super scared.. six horses are going to get a crappy placing..

Feedback
UGH, I hate big races! Especially for the maidens. If I could place them all top three, I would. No specific feedbacks, although the resuts may be surprising.

Preferences played a slight factor (being perfect on any surface and being able to run sprints and long races is a turn off to me. Not many horses can do that!) if you had a workout within the last two months, it shows that you're putting effort into the horses, which they need. Personalities also played a small part in the placings. Sorry to anyone who's not pleased with the turn out! :/

_{yay! for Sweetness Unlimited! Boo for Lumiera... Oh well.
Is there anything I can do to make Lumiera more.. appealing? Or do better/different with her? (beside a work cause Im working on one now)}

[azzy]

There's not much that I could recommend. To get Lumiera back on track, a work would definitely help (although you did one recently with them both, so good job!) I would maybe try to find a race that's longer; it's going to be hard since maidens don't usually run longer, but I'd say that 10 furlongs and up would probably be her specialty. Other than that, nothing really! Sweetness just managed to fit the race better than Lumiera.

_{Okay, I kind of thought it was that(the distance thing) or something with her personality. I understand. Thank you again Azule! ;D}
