I am assuming Kraken has worked out how to do this based on his score
but I TOTALLY cant do it. How do you get the 8 chips required to break
the lin ball at the end of the bobsleigh run?
Any ideas much appreciated.

I can get it once in a while, but I havent worked out exactly how. I
usually set NiGHTS towards the center of the row and tap left...I get
lucky at times. I'm practicing how to master it, though, and I'll tell
you once I do.

Yeah thats pretty much what I do but it seems pretty incredibly random
to me. You do seem to throw down on that level though. FB4 is by far my
lowest scoring mare. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? I think
having to make a full lap before getting the Ideya really hurts me on
that one.

I usually get it after a full lap as well. Let's see....my basic plan on Mare 4:
Start by flying forward. Go through the loop, collecting the chips and
stars as you go (if you can go through the loops while paralooping at
least two of the four items, that's even better, as that can help you
continue a link easier), continue forward, dont touch the Ideya
capture, and go to the bobsled part. Hit the first booster, go up the
wall to the right and bypass the second boost. Follow it back down and
hit the snowballs. Hit the next booster and head up the wall. Miss the
final booster, grab the link ball.
Now, I did a bit of experimenting with the link ball at this point.
Unfortunately, I havent completed the link since I started the
experiments...everytime I fixed one flaw, another arose. However, it
seems like it's advantageous to not control NiGHTs too much towards the
first two chips: you'll have to move him just a tad to the left, but
not much. The center two are the hardest to get. Everytime I try to
direct NiGHTS left, I miss the right one barely. I may get both chips
from one of the center rows, but I miss one from the other row. If I
direct NiGHTs right slightly, I miss the left one, usually of both the
center row and the final row. Not moving NiGHTS also results in missing
a left chip.
It does seem like there is a point when you shouldnt try to move NiGHTS
and just let him go with the halfpipe. The first and final two chips
seem easiest to hit: the former due to them being the first ones, and
the latter due to the halfpipe's bending which *seems* to direct NiGHTS
straight for it. Maybe I'm overanalyzing. >_>
Now, continuing past, you've got one more ring between you and the
palace. I go below the ring, grab the stars, loop up and grab the next
two stars moving back, and then head through the ring. It's a
counterclockwise loop ending with passing through the ring and,
usually, getting a good deal of the chip/star formation in the
background. And from there, just continue.
....I hope A: that that helps some, and B: you decide to read the block of text that I got carried away with. =p Sorry.

No no big blocks of text are exactly the kind of information I am
interested in sharing. This is great info. You seem to have almost
exactly the same strategy as me just you appear to be better at it. I
think cracking the link ball here would push the score over the 50 000
mark with ease.

Hm...it looks like infinite links are impossible past Mare 1. It looks
like breaking 600k will require perfection on all mares: 2 and 4 in
particular. Once I master the maneuvers through the bars on Mare 2 and
the link ball on Mare 4 (getting closer...I broke it twice in my last
FB run), it should all be focus and skill from there.

Not quite yet...I got denied by the freezy guys in Mare 1 and the
electrocuting guys in Mare 3 a lot. =p Haha. Working on it, though,
dont worry.
