Anyone else very irritated by Jonathan Powell today?

During interview with Jim Lewis kept referring to memorial plaque at Exeter as the grave of Best Mate. Was surprised Jim did not correct him actually but probably did not want to turn what was supposed to be a sensitive moment into an argument.

Then just before the Haldon while interviewing Colin Tizzard and paying a tribute to broodmare Dubacilla he says, 'she was bred by Henry Cole - who is standing next to Colin, but Jonatahn takes no notice of this at all. Despite the fact that when he asks Colin how many racing foals Dubacilla has Colin then asks Henry who replies.

What a wally - you would think he would have known Best Mate was buried at Cheltenham at least!
