Commentary

mark johnson is just in a different league

his eyes are everywhere. never seems to miss any action. 

his commentary is descriptive and builds up and up and up

his commentary of the champion hurdle was fantastic. lighting the crowd up "hurricane fly is making his move" the place erupted.

Simon Holt has had a total nightmare and ive never moaned over a commentry before.....didnt see  scotsirish break down and even mention him being out the race for 5 fences..there was another one on the tue that was blatant which i cant recall now but the worst imo was when it took him ages to realise it was soll who d fell in the 4 miler and yet didnt even notice  he d brought down alle garde, the fav....not an easy job but the guys had a shocker.

Holt didn't notice Noble prince pulling up either,He did eventually,about 2 minutes later!

TIY.. You are correct. Simon is having a 'mare' this year. The other horse you were talking about was Garde Champatre. Also the camera angles has been terrible again - Showing close up of Favs whilst the race is unfoldingin other areas.
