shocking pundits, apart from the voice, shocking timing of ad breaks, price captions cover the runners when they put them up before the race, the orange one going on like an orange thing.. the shark say`s this one will come on for the run then watches it bolt up. the mear cat has no shoulders, BOB thinks hes on university challenge, boyce will fall off the fence one of these days. Dear oh dear please RUK take the rest of the tracks

Made me money last night at Towcester. Little guy running around in paddock would interview trainers. I rarely listen to what they say. Watch their body language when asked how the horse will do.
- Rubbing back of neck. Action: LAY - "Ground is right. Horse is in good condition. Should improve from last time but you never know in this type of race." ACTION: set up LAY in-running - "we were disappointed last time out. Not sure what the problem was". Action: Long odds: ew flutter. - "You have two others racing later tonight" "Yes...." Action: if he talks with confidence about a horse running later, it means the horse that is running now was brought to fill the box. Nervous excitement or tries to turn away to avoid interview: ACTION - worth the back. The trainer is excited. We've all been there when we think we're going to win. But, in general, watch their body language. The tells can let you know if they have a possible straight on the the turn (possibly one of the best racing puns every  (c) 2012 Shapeshifter) or they are bluffing. |

in general, trainers wouldnt give you the shyte of their shoes,they dont get up at 5 oclock every morning and then spend endless sleeples nights because the owners all owe 6 months training fees, just to come on tv and spill the honest beans to the mugs watching and i dont blame them one little bit.

I spoke to someone that works up north. He said that there is that balance of info/no info but they do need to do it for profile.
As I said, you rarely see big trainers giving interviews when they are too busy with last minute instructions to jockeys plus nervous focus on the upcoming race. |

Why in gods name do you want intelligent insight and information spilled all over the tv screens, do you want the losing punters you need to make money to suddenly become more informed. Do you want that angle you took hours to uncover to be debated all over the tv screen?. Be grateful that all the channels employ clueless screen time fillers, they are your friends.

Also, nothing better than you pick up that a pundit is "ill-prepared" on his selections and starts to stumble through the card (usual clue - starts going with statistics / heavy draw analysis).
