TVG Fantasy League

I'm curious, are there any folks that are playing in the TVG fantasy league that started in late December? If so, I thought we could get a thread going for most probable graded stakes winners in February. Anybody want to throw a few out there? My current stable is:

Preachinatthebar
Lava Man
Sweetnorthernsaint
Strong Contender
Miesque's Approval
Rahys' Appeal
Quick Little Miss
Kelly's Landing
Sir Greeley
Brother Derek
Three Degrees (IRE)
E Z Warrior

I'm currently in third place overall with a couple stellar months to start off. By the way, you only get points for U.S. races...I kind of got screwed on Miesque's Approval going Canadian.

It's the Canadian Turf at Gulfstream he is going in on the 3rd of February.
I'm like 102nd....in other words you're kicking my butt!

I probably would have EVENTUALLY figured that out. But, I thought they were pointing him toward the Donn and then I saw Canadian turf but didn't look to see where that is run! I thought it odd to be running a BC winner in Canada in February, but I guess I was just surprised they didn't run him in the Donn when they could.

Well, I'm a total moron. Set my lineup in one of my two private leagues but forgot to in the other private league and most importantly the public league. So much for 23rd overall.

I picked Strong Contender as one of my Grade I's and he's scratched. Not as bad as your situation but still sucks.

I probably hate that horse more than any horse on the planet but still picked him since I could only find four Group 1 horses running tomorrow. I changed it this morning in the other two groups in hopes that it will count but I highly doubt it since the rules clearly say midnight the night before.

Bit worried I went to deep in the fillies races, but there wasn't much other information on horses running later in the month.

Seems like everyone has somewhat similar G1 lineups.
Does anyone know how they determine which horses are in the G1 group and which are in the g2 group?

Why is Invasor in the G2 group, while a horse like Don'tbotherknocking is in the G1 group?
Strange formula, whatever it is.

No idea, but agree it is a strange formula! Also, they have a few retired or dead horses on both lists.

I think the TVG intern is the fantasy league administrator.

Something is not right with this horse. She has been nominated in 3 or 4 stakes races sine the start of SA and still has yet to run. Plus I am concerned with the gap in her workouts:

02/06/2007 HOL 3F :37.80 All Weather Track Fast H
01/17/2007 HOL 5F 1:01.40 All Weather Track Fast H
01/10/2007 SA 4F :49.00 Dirt Fast H
12/24/2006 HOL 4F :49.60 All Weather Track Fast H

Antaz,

Do you have multiple entries in the public league? I see about 5 stables in the top 50 that begin with antaz...??? What's up with that?!?

I decided to take a risk on foxy because I think she's capable and others didn't have her (well, not too many others). Hopefully, whatever has been causing her to scratch is fixed soon and she goes back to racing. Fingers crossed.

[JudyGold]

No



But my 2 brothers have an entry and so does my sister.( 4 in the top 20 including myself)



I'm hoping that Frankel has a change of heart and enters in the San Carlos. Lanten Heat has been working very well

[The Indomitable DrugS]

I'm in 6th now, 50 points back.

I have five horses left still, and only one 1 other person in the top 18 has as many runners left.

I don't think I will get beat up this month, as bad as I thought I might going into last weekend.

The Latent Heat guy with multiple entries seems to have guessed right, Frankel is now intending to run him in the San Carlos--and probably will unless he gets an unfavorable weight assignment---or the horse doesn't come into the race doing outstanding.

I think I recall seeing Latent Heat worked in the last few days. Nice job in 6th...I'm at 71 or so with only one horse left to run in the month and she'll probably get her butt handed to her by Pussycat Doll.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

I don't think Pussycat Doll was nominated to the Fritchie at Laurel, I think she might be staying home this weekend

The Three Year old Fantasy Contest will be available for sign-up this week-end too.

Looks like they only added G2 horses this time around.
