Judging from previous years just lay whatever the so called experts put up and especially lay whatever that pr#ck Anthony Bromley says "spoke with the trainer and he's just done a sparkling piece of work on the gallops" about. These things are great for whetting your appetite but rarely do they tell you what you already dont know. Had to laugh at the one from a couple of years ago when Nicholls tips up Sam Winner big time for the Triumph and barely mentioned Zarkandar lol!!!!!!!!

totally agree sc, in fact if you went to back the lowest priced horse not mentioned in a race you would be quids in.
I went to the one at the Royal Oak on the eve of the festival for a few years, ok if you knew nothing but useless otherwise. The banter though was terrific. THAT SAID! I love reading the preview highlights! lol I looked at a few from last year on youtube recently and there are a couple who really know there stuff, none of those are trainers though - they have to hype a horse for the owner! |

Anyone who backs horses blind from these is an idiot....they are a good craic though, rare to sit in a room full of people all discussing racing

bbf and mtm, yeah agree it is just good to go along and hear people talk about racing. I suppose sometimes it just makes you think about an angle you haven't considered. Obviously the trainer is not going to say anything other than working well at home but some of the panelists will occasionally say something which sparks an idea for later.
You can never have enough information in this game |
