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.

2024 Ryanair Chase

“We are boldly going to give the Ryanair Chase a go. The thing with Protektorat is that he is maintaining his form well, but he is just getting beaten by horses that are just that bit better than him. Protektorat flits in and out of those Grade One races, despite winning a Betfair Chase very well. He has run in a Gold Cup and finished third and fifth, but he has just fallen short of that Gold Cup number.
"If you take the Gold Cup horses away he is one of the best horses out there. He has been second off a pretty high weight in a Paddy Power Gold Cup, along with being third in a Gold Cup and fifth in one. He did underperform in last season’s Cotswold Chase, but I had one eye on the Gold Cup at that point. We are doing things differently with him this season. We are training him a bit differently and running him a bit more, and he is holding his form.
"You could hardly say it has been a disappointing season following him around all the big venues picking up prizemoney. I think he will be bang there taking on different horses over this shorter trip.”

Protektorat for the Ryanair was one of my early selections, if it came soft/testing on the Thursday, I be really keen on him as long as Harry just let him go from the front
they've been trying to get 3 miles with this horse, but he’s been keen too early on
a testing Ryanair could bring him into play
