Named this one well

Post by Andrew James »

ThePrinceofFools

https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.ph ... ID=1047714

Originally named after a book I like by one of my favourite authors. It works on more than a few levels now.
Foolish to geld him (part of me wonders if he would have improved if i didn't, part of me says, who cares, can run him till hes 12 now.)
Foolish to run him for 15 k (insert "yeesh" gif)
Foolish not to gallop him again after week 9.

I guess I am in fact the prince of fools.

What a plesant surprise to wake up to this morning though :)

Very very lucky lol. TBF I wouldn't have claimed him either. He was a sad allowance out of a mare with no record or much of a pedigree. Just one of those fluky things.

I noticed you haven't galloped him since the mid point of the year. He may be a freak now.
