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.

            • So Rory Delargy writes the Banker or Bust sections in the Weatherbys Cheltenham Festival Guide and he's gones as follows;

              Day 1
              Facile Vega - Bust
              Honeysuckle (mares hurdle) - Bust

              Day 2
              Gerri Colombe - Banker
              Edwardstone - Banker

              Day 3
              Luccia - Bust
              Teahupoo - Bust

              Day 4
              Embassy Gardens - Bust
              Jeremy's Flame - Banker

              He's put up a few outsiders too, one definitely had his bubble burst yesterday though.

              Haddex des Obeaux - Arkle
              Willmount - Bumper
              Liberty Dance - Mares novice
              Scriptwriter - Triumph

                  Edwardstone banker is bold!

                  Jeremy's Flame as a banker is bold too


                  Haddex des Obeaux non runner
                  Scriptwriter bust already



                  Highlights how hard it is to predict even a few weeks out

                    I've binned most of my Bankers now !!
                    Good viewing though

                      I stand by mine

                      Although Facile Vega is my best result in the Supreme so hope I'm wrong

                        Thinks tactics may not suit Energumene with Editeur du Guite wanting to make the running whereas Edwardstone can be versatile and sit in.

                        Jeremy's Flame as a banker is bold too
                        Makes the case she'll be in receipt of 3lb from the top 2 in the betting, argues JF's chase form is better albeit more exposed.

                          I'd imagine FV would split the whole Forum. No idea with him. He'll either piss it or flump it. I can't call it.

                            I think a lot of people want him to win (including me) but that's different to thinking he'll win. Could just be a more open race this year, not every year will have a Constitution Hill, Appreciate it.

                                I get the feeling you don't like discussing with me, so don't feel obliged to reply but I'll try anyway

                                Do you amend your books to be as per your preference nearer the race? Obviously done a lot of work to get in a solid position on the market principles but if you actually form a different opinion on most likely winner to the one you have top of the book, you have the benefit from that of being able to manoeuvre a different position I assume. So in short; will FV still be your best result come the off do you think?
