Sir Puntalot Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 So, Frankels Foals - just keep hearing winner after winner - anyone got the stats on them and how many there are in training? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyHills Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Trouble is with anything connected to Frankel is that the pressure is on the trainer to get them ready earlier than maybe would be ideal. Lets not forget Frankel really improved at 3 and i just hope they dont tail off too early and that some have been given time to mature properly. Next year will be very interesting, hope to see some Nathaniel youngsters too! arsenalfh, Saint R and Sir Puntalot 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenalfh Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 My mate doesn't think they'll train on and he has a point I think. They all seem to be very precocious winning first time out and have been a bit disappointing when upped in class. In his favour a few of his have improved going up in trip which gives you hope of them improving with age. We'll see anyway!

Sir Puntalot Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 So a year on and a good few winners and potential superstars - Frankel's foals look a bit tasty! Sadly, the odds will nearly always reflect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy2shoes Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 The money involved in having a mare covered is insane Whatever happened to Frankel's old Pilot ? He's been very QT this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been very QT this season My opinion is that he never recovered from Frankel and shortly afterwards the death of Sir Henry The whole 2 years or thereabouts just seemed to take so much out of him. The pressure on him must have been enormous. I thought he was a very impressive young man coping with the Frankel phenomena and I still remember him being interviewed on RUK at Salisbury on the day Sir Henry's death was announced. Came across as intelligent and articulate and a genuinely nice guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
