Has anyone ever owned a share of a racehorse :)

What I have now realised is that we don't find out until a day or so before exactly when and where he will be racing, which makes planning difficult, so its as follows;


"a 7f maiden at Compiegne on Monday28/10/13 restricted French breds, for apprentices and young jockeys or a 6f maiden back at Chantilly, with identical conditions to his last race on Thursday the 31/10/13. We will enter in both and see which looks most suitable"

There's a French media channel, Equidia, that provides live coverage of races via several routes, including Equidia Live Direct web TV. Unfortunately they don't seem to be willing to provide their web stream to UK subscribers. http://www.equidia.fr/L-Univers-Equidia/Equidia-Live-Equidia-Life/Comment-recevoir-Equidia-Live-et-Equidia-Life


They do also have a large multiply-indexed archive of videos of races that looks accessible and cheap. Here's Silver Treasure's last appearance, for example: http://www.equidiavideo.fr/Courses/GRAND-VIVIER.

Cheers AM.


Finished second again in another 6f maiden. Got knocked about a bit so did well to finish second I reckon, but the favourite won. Silver Treasure was 5/2 second fav, so went with form. Very consistent though, three consecutive 2nd places.


It was heavy ground, i'm hoping its one that "goes on all surfaces" rather than liking soft/heavy as I have big hopes for next summer :)

Thanks PGC. Thought he came back well after the bump.


Im registered as an owner with BHA. So I do get to choose my racing colours. So your request for hoops is on my shortlist!


Trouble is until you own > 50% of a horse you don't get to use your own colours. As that's a bit on the expensive side I might never have the need to choose any colours.


Peachy. Extreme is a national hunt horse whereas mine is a flat racing horse. But I'm enjoying working things out as we go along at the moment, it's all a bit of a learning curve. Thanks for the offer and will pm if the need a rises. Thx.

Last race of the season for Silver Treasure on Thursday this week at Fontainbleu.....


Big step up as its a LISTED race. ST will I think be a relative outsider in this one. Prize money for the first 5 horses home, so lets hope it can make the top 5, but that is a big ask, eg another horse that beat it at Chantilly is in the race and some others have big prize money to their names.


Race details attached. Eurostar at the ready as due to it being the last race of 2013 we feel we have got to be there.

    • I would look at the area between Dulwich and Herne Hill The link from Herne Hill station by Thameslink to St Pauls is superb. but it all depends on what rating ( 1 thro' 10) you give to each of the parameters you have identified.

    • You probably don't need to understand it better!! But basically you used to be able to drive up and down Court lane and Calton Avenue across the Dulwich village junction with gay abandon and now you can't because that part of junction is now blocked by multicoloured woodwork and planters.  So Dulwich village is split in half for vehicles and you have to drive a long round to get from one side to other.  Some people (the majority who responded to Southwark's seemingly flawed consultation) hate this, especially those living on roads to which the through traffic has been displaced and those who have to drive alot further to get from one side of DV to the other and some people like it.  The debate will go on forever without a happy ending for some of the people.  That's it really 🤔
    • We live in a half house on Pellatt road and did a loft conversion a few years ago. No complaints at all! The walls on the adjoining side (the side where you share the front door) is a bit thinner than a typical Victorian home so we can hear our neighbours going up and down the stairs but otherwise it’s good.
