English blog on French horse racing

[kspoon17]

Horse racing fans,

As a close follower of French racing for the past decade, I’m seriously considering starting up an English-speaking blog on French racing, which I’m hoping may be of some interest for the English-speaking horse racing fans.
While I know that the general horse racing media in the UK would be covering the biggest races in France, they don’t necessarily cover other aspects of the game, starting with hot maidens and prep races, sales, stable tours and various other topics.

I’d be curious to get your views on this idea, through the below questions:
1. Would you be interested in such blog service?
2. What kind of information would you be looking for in such a service? (betting / tipping? Previews? Reports? Stable tours? Bloodstock reports?)

Happy to hear your feedback.
cheers

Sounds good to me Kspoon – something of everything would be great.

I also follow French racing very closely (mainly jumps but some flat) and used to use the http://www.frogsracing.com site but that shut down last year

Now stuck with Paris Turf and a few other sites for info, France Galop is the best by far mind though doesn’t do news stories etc

I’d be very interested from an owner’s viewpoint so any details that would be useful to an English owner looking to enter a horse in France would be great.

Thanks for the input.
Yep, I knew about frogsracing.com but the guy in charge of it had to call it a day end of last year. To be fair, that also triggered the idea, knowing that it’s something I’ve been considering for a while.

I’m more of a flat specialist, but I’ll also get up to speed with the jumps if this project comes to life. Still looking to hear some more good ideas out there.

Cheers

I’d certainly be very interested and would follow your blog. Good luck
