The Racing League Delivers – It’s a Fact

Nov 12, 2021

Let’s be honest, racing is an incredibly competitive sport, mostly dominated by wealthy players meaning owning a winner is something that is actually really hard to achieve. When you do, the buzz is incredible. Everyone loves a winner and there’s no denying The Racing League is delivering WINNERS.   The pure facts make for great reading and a winning streak rate that any sporting club, anywhere in the world would be proud of.  11 Starts for 5 wins + 4 2nds!

There’s been four TRL horses hit the track across three different states and remarkably every single horse has WON.  In fact, the tally reads 5 wins from the four horses with Team Captain notching two super impressive wins. We are sure you’ll agree, cheering home a winner is one thing, cheering home a horse you actually OWN is next level and a moment to cherish forever, that unbridled thrill that ownership can deliver.

The Sherpa will go down in history as the first WINNER in The Racing League history when he showed a ‘ton of courage’ to win at Scone for the NSW Tycoons on September 24.

 

Team Captain has been the rock star of TRL so far. Trainer Matt Cumani targeted the Victorian Country Cups circuit and went ‘bang’ first-up for the Husslers winning the Hamilton Cup on October 9. Team Captain has clearly thrived under the guidance of Cumani, after much thought he bypassed the Lexus on Derby Day for the Macca’s Run 2800m on Melbourne Cup day and Team Captain went ‘BOOM’ belting his rivals by four lengths and stamping himself as a contender for the 2022 Melbourne Cup

He’s not done yet this preparation, with Team Captain looking to make it three wins in a row for the Husslers in with the Sandown Cup November 27 or the Pakenham Cup on December 4.

 

Bellinger provided more joy for the Vic Husslers when he WON on October 25 and as the commentator said ‘no worries at all for Bellinger’.

 

The Big Goodbye has spearheaded The Queensland Rogues to the top of The Racing League ladder. Three consecutive seconds at Eagle Farm teased the excitable Rogues owners before he streaked clear for a much deserved win at Eagle Farm on October 30.

It has been a painstaking process for the bloodstock team at TRL, finding the right ready to run horses to deliver the best possible experience for owners, a job we take very seriously. That hard work backed up by the patience of TRL owners is now paying off. 

The amazing run for owners in The Racing League is something that will be all but impossible to maintain. We are sure Racing League owners will agree that if this run of success is any indication of where the ownership experience is headed, then the ownership revolution that is TRL is going to be some journey.

Now owners bring on your 12 very exciting 2yo’s!

The Racing League Delivers – It’s a Fact

Nov 12, 2021

Cool Jakey was the King of Warwick Farm  on Wednesday and NSW Tycoons owners would like to package the Metropolitan track and just take it wherever Cool Jakey goes after he kept his undefeated record intact. 

It’s remarkable that ‘Jakey’, trained on track and stabled across the road with Joe Pride, is one of those athletes, albeit of the equine kind, who thrives on his home ground. 

He won on debut at Warwick Farm way back in February of 2023 and the love affair hasn’t ended, Cool Jakey has now won 4 from 4 at ‘The Farm’ and there’s plenty more wins in store for your son of Pierro.

BOUNCE BACK FACTOR 

As Tycoons were made aware of, there’s a theory in racing that when a horse suffers from cardiac arrhythmia, “you must back it next start” and they win. 

And that was certainly the message after Cool Jakey suffered cardiac arrhythmia the previous start at Randwick, with Joe Pride telling Tycoons in the pre-race late mail, “Don’t worry about what happened last start, the horse is fine and he looks great,” how right Joe was with Cool Jakey leading all the way.

HIPPO FROM BARRIER TO BOX

Adam Hyeronimus was having his first sit on Cool Jakey and he rode him a treat. We joked before the race “just go to the front and improve your position” and that’s exactly what he did. 

“He jumped well and found a nice rhythm straight away, he had a nice time so I let him slide early into it at the 600metres so we did go a bit early. 

“He felt fantastic throughout the run and was doing it easily, so I did get a bit of a surprise how quickly he stopped. 

“So maybe I did go too early, but in saying that, maybe seven furlongs is his upper limit. On that effort he’ll be winning again” Jockey Adam Hyeronimus said.

JOE DELIGHTED

“That was good guys” trainer Joe Pride said, with a big smile to a large contingent of NSW Tycoons on Cool Jakey returning to scale. 

“Look it was nice to see him win on a track that wasn’t bottomless wet, it opens up a lot more opportunities for him. 

“In saying that if there was a 1400m for him in a fortnight on a Good track I would probably be reluctant to start him. We need to nurse him through it and the next month – six weeks isn’t going to be easy because it’s carnival time.

WHATS NEXT – PACK YOUR BAGS

The Tycoons have been very patient with Cool Jakey and their patience has been rewarded. He is building a very nice career record which stands at only 13 starts for 5 wins and a minor placing and is now pushing the $200,000 in prize money. 

‘Jakey’ has initially pulled up well, but we all know that he is a delicate soul and has to be treated with kindness and Joe is reluctant to push him too hard too quickly. Which is fair enough. 

“We might even consider travelling him maybe to Melbourne or Brisbane for a wet track, we just need to look after him.

“He’s been a good horse for us, we will look after him and his best opportunities will come in the Winter,” Joe concluded. 

Congratulations to all NSW Tycoons and winning connections.

Go you good thing!
