Flat Racing - Thoughts please

[charlie]

Great idea, lets just hope its needed and not all cancelled

[chunker86]

Great idea - all for it!

[Altior]

I'm in too. My knowledge of flat racing would be piss poor but I always keep a keen eye on it so it'd be nice to see the thoughts of others.

I hear this Pinatubo guy might be pretty handy huh?

By all means find it a separate space.

Anyone using that space should, of course, go into self-isolation from the proper racing threads for a minimum of 14 days.

[Eireman]

Great idea.

Flat racing for me just about keeps away the hurtin'!

[Kevloaf]

Ok thanks everybody.

No real rush as we don't know when we'll next see any racing but leave it with me.

[TigerRolllllll]

Great idea......think i need encouragement to take more interest in flat

Fingers crossed for some racing soon.....but long as everyone stays safe, thats all matters right now

I love the flat. The pedigrees are interesting to follow and you tend to see the horses out more often. On the other hand they are retired quicker lol, so gain less of a following.

Really hope we get some sort of flat season this year, but it looks bleak so far.

Great idea to put the Flat Season up on Fat Jockey.

Looks likely that the Guineas meeting, Derby Meeting and Royal Ascot may have to he pushed back.

That would also make it likely that (like the Grand National) that all antepost bets on the classics could be voided in the near future.

Happy to discuss the Flat , Until mid october anyway !.

Happy to discuss the Flat , Until mid october anyway !.

In a normal year we'd still have the national meeting, Irish National, Scottish National, Sandown's finale, Haydock's Swinton hurdle, Perth festival, Punchestown, Newburys impossible final NH meeting, Market Rasen's big Summer meeting, that big Uttoxeter Summer chase, several big Auteuil meetings as well as endless evening low grade fair.
But we're not in normal times sadly....

[BigChaang]

Sadly ., You are right Istabraq . But hopefully by the time mid October swings around.
This will all be behind us and normal service will be resumed . !! ,.
Fingers crossed .

I'm jumps through and through but there's few places i'd rather be than York for the Dante meet, especially when the sun comes out! Might have to wait til next year to experience it again mind!
There's some fascinating races on the flat so I say go for it!

[samcow]

That'd be delightful
