Crowdfunder - Fat Jockey Forum upgrade

Hello Fat Jockeys,

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.

I would love it if you could donate using the link below to access my project page. Any contribution large or small will be hugely appreciated. Thank you.

  • Struggling to look past Galvin. Jumps and stays and clearly not short of speed. If he's there at the finish don't see anything else coming up the hill stronger

      60 posts in 5 years.... you certainly are unexposed!

      You want a face?




      He's my number one for the race now too

        If he gets his ground DS is very sweet on him

          Very sweet. I watched Protektorat schooling with Dan this morning, and he was finding it hard to keep a smile off his face.
          Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more I sweat, the luckier I get.

            He did got outstayed by frodon on his penultimate run

            I don't think APT ran to his gold cup or haydock level at Christmas personally

            • Gordon has said in an ATR piece ahead of the weekend that Mount Ida is unlikely to run at the weekend and will most likely head straight to the Mares Chase in March.

              FYI - for anyone fancying her with an outside chance. NRNB only advisable.

              • Robbie Power surprisingly booked to ride Minella Indo in Saturday's Paddy Power Gold Cup. Rachael Blackmore not chosen on the Henry De Bromhead-trained Cheltenham Gold Cup winner as she'll be on A Plus Tard in March.

                Is it likely he’ll be on Minella indo in march as well? As jack and Davy will be on either galvin or delta work? Seriously puts me off Minella indo who is my fancy for the big one.

                  That would be my assumption

                  Think Rachael certain to ride APT.....and they can't rely on Jack

                  Plus could argue Rachael not got on well with Minella recently.......BUT yikes as a Minella backer, he is no Jack Kennedy!

                    Made similar comments on the general chat thread just now, definitely a negative for me too. At least he seems to be being kept away from Henrys Robcour horses!

                    • Power has won more Gold Cups than Blackmore but Saturday is surely only a prep run for Cheltenham. I imagine that he'll be told not to get in to a crazy shoot out with Frodon up front this time.

                          Hopefully he'll not create too much carnage going the wrong way around !! I thought Mullins would have learnt his lesson by now

                          • Asterion Forlonge will get it right at one of these races, knocking on the door each time but then the door collapses around him.

                              Very much doubt it'll be going left handed though

                                Fair points.
                                im surprised a tad that more has not been said re Blackmore, Frodon and the King George.
