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.

    I see the other thread was deleted. I hope no one minds me starting a new one?

    And whilst I'm at it, does anyone want to start (or mind me doing it) threads for Novice Chasers, Novice Hurdlers and Open Company? Chat seems to be spread between general and 2024 price thread at the moment. But discussion is getting pretty detailed so new threads are probably justified.

      Checked in and thought something had kicked off in General Chat, and I'd missed it. I really need Aintree to come sooner. 3 weeks still.

        Does anybody have a strong opinion on best online bookie for antepost betting? I don't like skybet, for example, as they don't allow cash out on AP bets. Anybody got a reason to go with any particular one?

          All have pros and cons, best case is to avail of all the pros of each if you can.

          365 - cash out but it’s usually greyed if the horse farts in preseason, can be slow to react
          Paddy - decent cash out process to be fair usually aren’t slow to react
          Sky - twar is useful-ish..
          Hills - no strong opinion apart from they are a major pain on verification, offer twar + I think cash out & odds boosts
          Lads - piss poor odds boost which just usually align price with rest of market

          paddy/365/hills probably the best for antepost

            ….Hills ‘Double Odds’ boost seems an increasingly welcome bonus. Hope they continue to provide it through the summer.

                          The exact reason why I'll not be creating the bumper thread for 2024 felt like there was a notification every time one of Willie Mullins' potentials took a shit

                              If they all stood there ground then I’d have the following for the tricast:

                              Mirazur West
                              Mahon’s Way
                              He’s My Hero

                              The first two are high profile but the third ran second in a decent point. I’d rule out the Denmark colours as they don’t strike me as being bumper horses, although they’d probably win something weaker.
