The Eleventh race of the second season of Britain horse races was held last night to wonderful success, after a fortnight hiatus.
Four heats of racers competed for the purse, and a chance to advance to the finals.
Heat #1 was won by Crixia, heat #2 was taken by Ceryx Cybium, Heat #3 was captured by Gordon, and Ibram Gaunt conquered the final heat.
Lining up for the final race of the night, the heat winners were eager and focused. Race-by-race they ran, and it was apparent they were evenly matched. Each rider took a single race, treating the amassed crowd to a rare four-way winner-take-all final bout.
When the signal to "GO!" was heard, all four riders were like lighting on the track, but when the dust settled only one could take the prize: Ibram Gaunt of 1st.
Ibram took home the purse of ten thousand gold crowns, and the chance to participate in the season finals.
Each season consists of thirty-six weekly races, with the finals being held among the weekly winners thereafter.
Previous winners include:
Week #1: Doolittle
Week #2: Last Target of IKK
Week #3: Lord Mrykul of =8=
Week #4: Kiana Thesan of -B-
Week #5: Louie of CPG
Week #6: Alicia Slate of -B-
Week #7: Drizzt of KRV
Week #8: Elise Antero of AoL
Week #9: Guruk of WG
Week #10: Dark Elf of KRT
The races are held every Wednesday evening at 9 PST, at the Britain race tracks. To find the tracks, proceed west from the Cat's Lair Tavern, past the Warrior's Guild, into the farms. The fenced off field off of this path is the site of the race. I am present there at all times to answer your questions about the rules.
May the Creator watch over you, and may the wind be at your backs.
