    Nothing new but I just need to say it

    Thanks for the comments, mate. Does the horse ever win without the owner being told of his winning chance?

    Nothing new but I just need to say it

    Well, fair do's if you're able to spot an upcoming gamble in one of those low-class races. Even if you are, the major obstacle is that these horses tend to be very inconsistent and hard to predict because of that. I wouldn't subscribe to the never bet in handicaps stipulation but, as with all...

    I could disagree with you on one point, however, concerning better class races in that they aren’t immune to jiggery pokery. We only have to look at Mr Skelton’s athletic skullduggery with some of his handicap bigwigs to witness a good number of ‘surprise’ results.

    Well, you’re absolutely on the button there and, to be honest, that is my approach. I’ve vowed to keep my real interest to races of cl3 and above generally. There are exceptions such as when one of mine to follow is dropped into lower class. In the case of Moodofthoment, I had a peppercorn bet...

    Nothing new but I just need to say it

    I know; it's all been said before. Last time out I backed Moodofthemoment only to see the jockey sit at the back from the off and simply allow the horse to get further and further behind without the slightest concern. PU: 'Never travelling' As I remarked in a post: 'Haha! The comedy show...

    Yeah. Like an old geezers clubroom. I'll have a whisky.

    TV coverage

    Yup. It's a bugbear of mine, too. As a watcher I want the cameras to show the field head on or side on so I can see how horses are travelling, whether the field is strung out, whether it's being run at a fast or slow pace. I don't find track-side, car-mounted moving travelling shots, worm's eye...

    Early last season I knew I'd written about the trend of VW's runners not firing early doors. I've just searched it and here it is: Well, the next day, 22nd Nov, she got her first win of the season. Haha. I kid you not. According to my scattered musings, it seems we may have to wait a few...

    Good morning and welcome to the end of summer as the clocks fall back. We'll now be into the NHprogramme for the season in earnest and I love it. It was gratifying to see the Cheltenham card yesterday and, my God, what great racing there was; so entertaining and not one TV pundit insight in this...
