Season Three Summary
Without a doubt this was our best season so far in the racing sim. We managed a dozen Group 1 victories from 6 different horses winning classic races such as the 2000 Guineas and the English and Irish Derby double.
Career Histories of horses that first appeared in Season 3.  The names are based on the time in my life when I lived in Peru.
Colts
Ariosto Matellini G1,G3, RR 141  (The road I lived on in 1998)

A nice stayer. He won a couple of listed races before finishing 2nd in the St Leger.  He won the Group 3 Ormonde Stakes and then ran a monster RR 141 when taking a group 1 invitational race.
Jose Larco  won a handicap, RR 104(The road I lived on 1995-1997)

A few average runs and then won a handicap before moving to a new stable.
Chifles  won a listed, RR115 (Fried sliced plantain a bit like crisps)
(Reverend Johnson-Mongo)

Has been placed in a Group 3 race and won a listed race but has since gone off the boil.
Chulucanas won a listed race, RR 122 (Town in the north of Peru where my wife is from)

A nice horse who has been placed in Group races. May have to drop down in class to get the win he is capable of. Finally a victory in a listed race as a 4 year old.
Senor de Sipan G1, G3, RR 127 (A Moche Lord whose tomb with spectacular finds was excavated by my wife's cousin Walter Alva)

A very classy colt. He won a listed race first time out befor taking the Group 3 Guineas Trial in his third race.  A 1* run put paid to his classic hopes although he did still manage 3rd place in the 2000 Guineas but he got a deserved Group 1 victory in the St James Palace Stakes.  Has run in several Group 1 races since but has been struggling against the older horses.
Panamericana Norte  G3, RR 123 (The road from Lima towards Ecuador)
(Sheriff Bart-Flying Foxtrot)

He has improved steadily as he has got older.  Won a listed event over a mile as a 3yo and then won the Group 3 Gladness Stakes as a 4yo.  7f is his best trip we feel.
Chorrillos  no wins, RR 108 (The suburb where I lived in 1998 and worked)
(Waco Kid-Shock Horror)

When he ran a RR of 106 in his second run as a 2yo we thought we had an excellent horse on our hands but he has not really proved to be up to the level we have been running him in and we will look for a few easier races  in the future.
Matute  no wins, RR 112 (The home ground of the mighty Alianza Lima)
(Gov Lepetomane-Freddy Ljungberg)

We expected a lot more from this horse.  Ran a RR of 111 in his third race as a 2yo but didn't really train on and is now looking at all weather races in the future.
Arzobispo Loayza  no wins, RR 121 (The hospital where my son was born)
(Buddy Bizarre-Frontier Gibberish)

Conceived as an experiment to see if Mark's theory about two donkeys possibly breeding a superstar could be true.  A relatively unspectacular career so far but did run a surprising RR 121 last time out so maybe there is a race in him yet.
