A clean slate at Elyria Downs

Opening Stakes and Founders’ Plate move from January 12 to a Friday, February 2 target, allowing more betting tests and fresh race preparation. Pilot finishes are archived; official starts, wins and placings begin at zero. Fresh race cards and prediction markets must be prepared before play.

The league

Our own world of racing

Universal's third major fictional sports venture joins XHL Hockey and Fury Football. The league will follow race winners, jockeys, horses and championship stories through independently played, verified tabletop results.

01 · Racing stable

Horses & jockeys

The fictional starter collection plus Expansion ONE and TWO are candidates for AGC's founding stable. Identities will remain unique even where printed card numbers repeat.

192 provisional names cataloged → · printed ratings not imported
02 · Host venues

Real & fictional tracks

The Circuit can visit established real-world courses and our three approved founding venues: Elyria Downs, Pikes Peak Downs and Mildenhall Royal Racecourse. Each has a permanent identity and its own course profile.

209 real courses retained · 3 fictional flagship venues approved
03 · The archive

Every finish matters

Official results will power standings, career records and Sporting News reports after the fan-prediction launch, pre-play market lock and Publisher verification. TEST and historical racing results stay separate.

Racing atlas · v0.2

Every era. Every continent. One circuit.

The AGC track registry now includes three approved fictional flagship venues alongside its real-world courses, lost landmarks, and international candidates. This is an expanding catalog, not a claim that every real racetrack on Earth is already listed. Real-world status and fictional AGC eligibility are different things.

The legacy circuit

Racing history doesn't have to stay retired.

Hollywood Park, Arlington Park, Aqueduct, and other former venues remain available as fictional AGC host candidates, while their real closure records stay intact. No real-world reopening is implied.

How the directory works: Documented operating = supported by a recent published source, not a promise of a race today. Historic = documented closure or end to thoroughbred racing. Needs review = recognized racecourse, but current status is not yet independently checked. Flat/jumps compatibility and surface specifications must be confirmed before assigning races.

The ASN Triple Crown

The inaugural circuit's three signature races now have official names and founding homes. The Cascade Derby is the marquee opening jewel; a champion must win every leg in the same season to take the crown.

Founding competition · v0.4

Season One: the official record begins

The three Triple Crown venues and races are approved. We have begun a provisional names-only horse roster, plus a draft race specification and calendar planning board. Founders’ Plate was a prelaunch pilot; it earns no official season credit. The Opening Stakes remains a prelaunch demonstration only. Further races and all Triple Crown dates, conditions and fields remain unapproved. Open Season One →

Grand Circuit Founders Cup

A separate early planning proposal, distinct from the Opening Stakes demonstration. Not scheduled or authorized for replay yet.

A note from ASN

Credit where the racing begins

ASN Grand Circuit is a fan-built fictional racing league using PLAAY Games' PLAAY at the Races tabletop engine. We're grateful for the original tabletop design. AGC is an independent ASN project and not presented as a PLAAY-operated competition.
