The Toulon Test race was a clear and indisbutable win by Silvermane. The King of Spain beat Athena to second place in a close finish.

The Dutch Ambassador bids 200 on the King of Spain.
(Note: I warned people that the earlier lack of bids was a deliberate cost break to get horse racing implemented, so this time don't expect there to be lots of horses for a mere 200!)

(OOC: The number under "Growth Left" will be added to the SR? I didn´t find it in the rulebook. Maybe worth to add.)

OOC: Yeah, growth left is a lot more powerful than that! Which I suspect may make Big Brown more temptiong for some of you.

Le Baron Lagarde bids 250 L for King of Spain (who named it this way, though ?). Why do you think the Dutch ambassador is bidding on it? It's not out of respect for the Spanish crown. |

Brevet Brigadier-General Guy d´Avranches bids 100 Livres for Big Brown (OOC: Sam, you didn´t need to point out generally, that "Big Brown" may be quite promising. ) |

Brevet Brigadier-General Guy d´Avranches,
just from the point of view of a cavalry man, the King of Spain is the better choice.
Best regards
