Can't wait to follow every step of Bingo's adventures.
Looking forward with bated breath.

I know there a lot of punters on here so any views on Noel Williams welcome.He seems like a really good bloke and he is basically in start up mode with only ten horses. Bingo came second on his very first outing in Lyon and the horse that won that race has gone on to win another race in Paris. So we know he can get round a course. There are five of us in the syndicate which we have yet to name or select the colours for our 'silks'.
When I was approached I made the mistake of expressing faint interest which was obviously taken as 'all in'. Obviously had the full guff from the guy who put the syndicate together...........' Great trainer starting out means we will get really looked after.........he went to see the horse and was really impressed...........think we got him at a great price......'
So that's about the jist of it at this stage. I hope to go down to see Bingo on the gallops in the very near future and will post some pictures etc.

Father wanted me to post this pic of his nag. His PAs must have knocked off for the evening...  Less exciting by far than the horse below, Asian Prince, in whom I own a piddling share, but who did win yesterday  Look at that big white face...and the horse. | Click to see full-size image. |

I can estimate the age by looking at the teeth.

Just had an update today from the trainer. Not much to say other than he has settled in nicely,was a little shabby after his long journey and was quite shy initially but starting to find his confidence and come out of himself a bit.
Noel has trotted him and plans to give him a gentle canter tomorrow. The initial goal is to let the horse enjoy the new grass and hopefully fill out a touch. He'll be put in a field for 5 or 6 weeks and then Noel will get him in and get to work.
So that's about it. That's just how exciting being a part owner of a racehorse is.
