THE HORSE RACE
Round One: The Gate
Aranya Royce- 110+38=148
Lord Commander Benfry Smith- 60+11=71
Lord Oliver Bulwer- 70+81=151
Aerie Falgrave- 110+80=190
Ser Grant Connington- 80+46=126
Ser Mychel Lannister- 80+71=151
Ser Antony Bulwer- 50+84=134

Ser Martyn Darry- 70+42=112
Ser Galwyn Fell- 70+81=151
Ser Patrek Redfort is allowed to run on foot beside the horses 90+31=121
Results
Aerie Blackwood takes the quick lead, and by a good margin. The next rider is young Dougal, and he is a good way back. Then the rest of the riders are mixed into a pack, with the Lord Regent Smith trailing.
Lord Blackwood falls from his mount, as the suprisingly fast Ser Redfort spooks the beast. Both men are left far behind their competitors.

THE HORSE RACE
Round Two: The First Half Mile
Aranya Royce- 110+78=198
Lord Commander Benfry Smith- 60+12=72
Lord Oliver Bulwer- 70+72=142

Brynden Royce- 70+24=94
Ser Martyn Darry- 70+92=162
Ser Galwyn Fell- 70+22=92
Results
Now a long line of riders strech along the Track, and Lady Royce has passed her business partner Lady Falgrave. The Two woman are leading, but young Dougal Lannister is close behind urging his beast to catch up.
Next is Oliver Bulwer, then Mychel, and Martyn. And still bringing up the rear, losing more and more distance is Lord Commander Benfry Smith. You may be able ro rule a kingdom or two, but can not manage to command his horse to perform.

Ser Martyn Darry- 70+5=75
Ser Galwyn Fell- 70+83=153
Results
Aranya's lead grows again, she is now easily ahead of all the competitors, and looks to have the race sewn up. This makes the race for second all the more exciting.
And young Dougal has passed Aerie Falgrave and is now firmly in second place. Aerie is not fighting Oliver Bulwer for Third as he has caught her.
He Rest of the pack thunders close behind, except for Smith. Who seems to be taking a leisurely tour of the Crownlands.

Ser Galwyn Fell- 70+60=130
Results
Aranya wins so soundly, that by the time the next contestants get there she has dismounted and is rubbing down her horse.
Aerie Falgrave and Dougal Lannister finish so close together it is called a draw. Her mounts last burst of energy had caught the young lads tiring beast.
Close behind them is Oliver Bulwer.
Then in order; Mychel, Martyn, Fell, Grant, Brynden, Devon, and Antony.
By the time Lord Smith crosses the finish line leading his horse and walking most of the crowd has departed.

Aranya, I told you that you couldn't inject your horse with those steriods whilst reacing against me. I'm so reporting this to the stewards.
