Virtual Horse Racing News

Elysium holds off a stout challenge from Fly Around to claim victory in a full field.  

Maiden races for our virtual hoses are always an exciting experience.  As many real life horse racing trainers will tell you,  'you don't know what you have until it's proven on the track'.  This is certainly true in our virtual horses who exhibit life like tendencies and growth.  This free to enter race featured a full field of 15 and was led by the early favorite in Fly Around from Black Cat Racing.  

The race began with a bang as Treganna Park's Tp Dog set blazing early fractions and carried a 4 length lead around the second call.  This gelding has shown impressive early speed but has been unable to sustain it in the later half of his races.  The rest of the field caught up to the leading horse and passed him with Elysium taking the initiative and managing to hold off Fly Around down the stretch.  This season we expect to see many more tight finishes as our trainers and virtual horses compete for real prize money.
