This part concerns me most as I backed a couple of his that pulled up really quick. - I think at least it should be published which yard which horse is at.

        ---

Coming into this year’s Festival, there were doubts over the well-being of the Nicholls team, with reports of some of the string coughing. That was a major concern and one which proved well-founded as a number of the horses failed to fire at all or didn’t pick up in the manner expected.

Did horses from one yard run better than the ones from the other? The answer shouldn’t matter. It’s not something punters should have to concern themselves with because the situation should never arise.

Would I be as inclined to back a Harry Fry or Richard Barber horse in a championship race as I would a Paul Nicholls horse? Maybe. Maybe not. But, at the very least, I’d like to feel safe in the knowledge that whatever the name beside the horse, it is that of the actual trainer. I don’t think that’s asking too much, is it

Shut up busvaldo ya complete tool ya.....Gambling jockey ya knobbend ......the article said this years champion hurdle winner was trained by Harry fry under the tutelage of Richard barber.....




What's the difference between this and every head /captain of industries/banks. They don't 'do the work', but they are credited with achieving the success and receive the appropriate renumeration/awards etc.
That's life.Rock On Ruby is officially trained by P.Nicholls. It runs under that 'heading'. so when it wins - PN receives the plaudits.

You might rant and rave and object to it - but those are the facts - and nothing will change it.

What has industry and banks got to do with anything related to horseracing?......rock on ruby is officially trained by Nicholls

There you go buddy you have answered your own question..........End of thred.

Oh by the way stop insulting people as it tends to make your nose bleed!
