racing could only improve its image by ditching big mac.

Whatever you say about Big Mac,he has made the best of what he is.
He owns a house in Primrose Hill, a very expensive part of London AND HE OWNS THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR JUST TO STORE THINGS IN!

Like Big Mac, with DT what you see is what you get. I met him at a charity function once and is the same DT as you see on the screen. Jovial, quite knowledgeable. Yes some don't like him, but then one can't please everyone can one! At least he tries to keep his commentaries interesting and exciting even if he does get it wrong sometimes.

Of course we are all entitled to our opinions, but I think some of the flak these 2 get is slightly on the extreme side.

Dead, Zenyatta won. She beat Gio Ponti and Mac was spouting how this is the first time against the males and she would get stuffed. Thank you.

Couldn't agree more; the fat bogey-picker/eater patronising Mac is an anachronism. Tommo's style is fine for the village fete but not national TV.

I have been asking the BHA and its predecessors to warn him off for years on the grounds of bringing Racing into disrepute. Surely he should be retired now before he does any more damage.

agree with some of the comments, but, take a step back and think, why do the big multiples make mac and thommo their first choice for shop openings?

it must be because they create the most interest, or do you think the big firms PR's dont asses popularity and opinion polls

^ its because  these two goons are the only 2 people that the general public recognise because whoever is responsible for PR( beit BHA or Bookmakers), haven't tried one iota to promote anyone else !!!

Barry       why do people like the Jeffrey Archer (lied under oath), Christine Hamilton (wife of cash for questions MP) Mad Frankie Fraser(leave that one to the imagination) appear on game shows and reality TV shows ?  Because the public love notoriety - it does not make what they did okay. I appreciate that the 2 aforementioned don't break the law, but citing public interest in them does not endorse their behaviour.  Women have been struggling for equal rights for more than a century. Do you think McCririck is acceptable on national TV with his views ?

If Big Mac was part of the harmless fun of c4 racing then fine, however when he is the one the news programmes turn to then racing has problems. I repeat what I wrote the other day, Mac against the whip yet wants Frankel to run in US where there are lax whip rules. The man is a hypocrite and is along with others helping to kill this sport.

Excerpt from Channel 4 Racing website

From Steve McRae:

I was successful in bidding for the John McCririck puppet at Sotheby's on Thursday.

Why did I buy it ?

Simple, pure value for money. In January it is my seven-year-old son's birthday and he wants to have his friends round. However, to hire a bouncy castle of sufficient size for his friends will cost over £1,000. By using the life size McCririck puppet, I can accommodate twice as many children for a mere £800.

After the event, the grotesque blubber monument will serve as an effective deterrent to burglars and Jehovah's Witnesses.

Use it on tv programmes instead of the real thing, would be an intelligent move in the right direction.

Mccrick has tried to help punters by getting on the backs of Bookies who won't guarantee their  early prices
and naming and encouraging bookies who have offered favourable e/w terms (e/w 5 places etc). He's also tried to expose bookies on course when they've been shortening everything pre-race.

Who else on  main stream TV has done the same for Punters?
The general public find him interesting and I think he has attracted people to the sport with his eccentricity.
Keep going John.
