Thank you, Tinki! I'm glad you'll be there.
On a related note, we may hear from Frelorn about event support when he gets back in town. Cross your fingers!

It is less than one week until the first race.
Please help by posting advertisements for Thorin's Cup on social media.
Would it be possible to get a mention on LOTRO Players and other sites?

Oh my, that is bad news! I was looking forward to listening to the Heartbeaters. I'm not sure who to ask...
I do have a huge collection of (untested except by Maestro) ABC country music songs. I'll post a link to that ZIP shortly.

TSO has a rehearsal just prior to the race. Perhaps we can cobble together a group of musicians from that?

Attention Race Hosts
The following riders won the Thorin's Cup race.
They should not be allowed to compete in the last three qualifier races, as they are already invited to the Championship Cup.
First Place -- Mellime
Second Place -- Tiora
Third Place -- Lainiest
If they try to sign up, politely tell them that they need to allow other riders to qualify for the final race.
Breglas has qualified as an alternate in case another rider doesn't show up on April 25th.
However, he is allowed to continue to try and win a "top three" slot, earning a full invitation and not just an alternate slot.

Thanks to support from Frelorn and Turbine, the prizes for the April 25th events have increased!
Rodeo and horse show prizes:
1,500 Turbine Points, 25 gold, and a prize code for first place.
1,000 TP, 10 gold, and a prize code for second place.
A Starter Pack, a prize code, and 5 gold for third place.
Championship Cup prizes:
2,000 Turbine Points, 300 gold, and a prize code for first place.
1,550 TP, 150 gold, and a prize code for second place.
500 TP, 75 gold, and a prize code for third place.
The wager winner(s) are entered into a drawing for prize codes, pet shrews, and starter packs.
Prize Codes include:
Starter Packs: If I'm not mistaken, the pack includes Chestnut Steed & Riding Skill, 100% Experience Boost x1, Universal Healing Potion x5, Exclusive Cosmetic Armor: Masterwork Breastplate, and Skill and Slayer Deed Boost x1. (I'll check on this.)
Titles: The Sociable, Hero of the Small Folk, and The Celebratory.
Steeds: Perlino and Cremello.
Cosmetics: Hauberk of the Mithril Guard, Cloak of the Dark Halls, Cloak of the Cold Well, Cloak of the Sunset, Cloak of the Raven Friend, and Deep Miner’s Helm.
Pets: Shrews
If you win a prize code, you can choose any one of the above codes, as long as supplies last.
THERE IS A MAJOR CAVEAT!
Frelorn has supplied us with the starter packs and a number of 1,000 Turbine Point codes. The prize codes are donations from the recent Extra Life campaign We are certain these will work.
We have supplemented the TP codes with older codes saved from previous events. We cannot guarantee that these haven't expired.
If they have expired, the prizes will be:
Rodeo and horse show prizes:
1,000 Turbine Points, 25 gold, and a prize code for first place.
1,000 TP, 10 gold, and a prize code for second place.
A Starter Pack, a prize code, and 5 gold for third place.
Championship Cup prizes:
2,000 Turbine Points, 300 gold, and a prize code for first place.
150 gold and a prize code for second place.
75 gold and a prize code for third place.
Still good prizes, just not quite as many Turbine Points to go around.
How To Redeem Codes
Turbine Point codes can be redeemed in-game through the store by clicking the Add Points button.
Prize codes can be redeemed by logging into your account at MyAccount.Turbine.com and entering the code as a Product Key.

The riding team is having a dress rehearsal this Wednesday night at 9:00pm.
If you plan to come help with the show, please try to be there.
It's a good time to copy the uniform and find out when/how to launch coordinated fireworks.
