From what I can tell, you can not 'group' people, it is one big entry...So it is not like a fantasy league where you can invite people to your 'group'. I could be wrong though

Last year, we had a Derby Trail stable 'group.' Not sure if things have changed since then...

Looks like you can still create leagues this year.

"A: One of the newer highlights of the game (along with weekly prizes), the League creation adds an exciting element to the game no matter where you rank in the overall standings. During the signup process, every player will have the option to create their own league in which they can compete against friends, co-workers, etc. Basically, you will be able to invite as many people as you want to join your league by simply inputting their email addresses in the appropriate box. Once they accept, all the people in your league can track their rankings and view other league members stables (see rules LINK) within the league each time they log in to the game. This is a great new addition to the game; even if you find yourself far out of first place overall, you still could be doing much better than everyone in your league, earning bragging rights over your co-workers, family, or friends."

The site talks about a "league" just like it did last year and there are supposed to be some new options, but I couldn't find anywhere that you sign up for a league so this must be an option you get after you select your horses, jockeys' trainers, etc?

"If it's free it's for me ... and can I take three?" is a motto I try to live by.

I'll probably sign up.
