Upgrading the Fat Jockey forum!: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/fatjockeyforum

We're looking to upgrade the 'hosting CPU' so I've set up a crowdfunding project.

  • Prengarde: “I can’t tell you much about him. He’ll be on his way from France and is going to Enda Bolger, but I can’t say what the plans are because we haven’t got him on board yet,” said Berry. “We are waiting for him, and he’s only turned six, so we have no plans at the minute. We will see how he settles in and how everything goes.”

    • Sounds like he might be one for next year as was always potentially the case.

      No mention of Shady at all?

      • It usually takes horses a while to get used to a new stable doesnt it?

        So must be a bit of a doubt he lines up in March unless they don't want a prep run

        The ground could also be a culture shock for him if there's any good in the going

        Prengarde not one for me at all, far too many unknowns

        • Yep, let the young un have his day next year. It's Tiger Day on the Wednesday !!

            Some it does and some doesn't imo. Based on how some of the ex Elliot horses performed at last year's festival after moving a couple of weeks before it's hard to say it took them too long!

            But yea, can't go down as a positive can it. At the current prices I'm more than happy to leave him alone. At 20s I can easily see the appeal I had mind.

              They kept the elliot horses on the same feed and stuff though didnt they

              We have no idea if that's the case with prengarde

              • Tiger Roll was born on 14th March 2010. Fitting that one of (if not the) greatest Festival horses was foaled during the Festival week itself. Legend. Destiny that it'll be number 6 on Tiger Wednesday.

                  ​​​​​​They probably tried to keep as much the same as possible. But still a change of scene isn't it. I mean the likes of Sir Gerhard and Quilixios by the way.

                  Agree, this is even more of a change of course. Change in ownership as well isn't it so may not even have the history.

                  I'd imagine they can all react slightly differently. Some may be fine others not so.

                      Prengarde was always going for the chelt race anyway for Macaire, so it would be interesting if that changes now with the runs on board, all the work done, and enda basically just the one to get the credit now.


                      But, there's no guarantees, and We shall see.

                        He's had a whole season of prep runs, with this always being his final target.

                        As just mentioned, something can come up, and there's no guarantees.

                            Be good if he did turn up as would add some needed spice to what currently looks a desperate race. Still going to be Tiger Wednesday though ! (soz, nearest emoji I could find that resembles a tiger)

                              Indeed, I'll blame it on the previous phone.

                                It could well be, It wouldn't be a suprise at all, should he miraculously be in fine form, and he'd be well clear of those who have ran to date, If so.

                                I'm Under no illusions, that prengarde wouldnt be anywhere near home and hosed, he has a tough ask, even if his form suggests that he's around 20L clear of the uk standard set this season, through the last trial winner.
