ATR pundit

God almighty he has given us his life history.

Typical bog trotter from the Country, count how many times he says 'there' in a sentence.

Who is he?

After-timer at best

Saying Weld horses were not in form during Galway? They were plot horses for a summer festival. Many would not have been suited by very bad ground which could not have been forecast when he was handicapping them.

First impressions are poor. Lots of filler words with very little actual insight or substance. Dave Duggan is being badly missed on the Irish coverage. Im getting sick of having English lads being asked to talk about Irish racing when they clearly have no knowledge of it and this chap isn't much better.

I THINK HEL RUN A BIG RACE THS 1.......is this a fkn recorded message...

Where is he from

A mate texted me aying this goon does commentaries on the virtual racing in one of the bookies. Hilarious.

I thought I recognised the voice

*saying. **** afaik.

My horse finished well into 2nd there he reckons.....ffs he tipped the wachman horse....

I have discovered his method :

1. Find the first 3 in the market
2. Read racing post comments
3. Say they will all run a big race
4. If one wins state "as a I said before the race", if losers talk up the form of winner
5. Collect cheque from ATR

He's following the Simon Mapletoft 'how to be a success on the gravy train' method.

What's his anme and which publication does he write for?

Simon Clifford. He's originally from Tralee, he writes for the Irish World, works for SIS as a voiceover man and is originally from Tralee.

get The Trainer on imho

second to none when it comes to Irish info

the mover

spot on

Thanks, paddy

I wonder what the exclusive membership offers,a free tracksuit?

Wrong thread

the irish guy fancies every single runner in this race

van rooney won a maiden chase last time out


ffs

This is unbearable.

This guy is clearly a bluffer. Van rooney apparently won a maiden chase at Killarney last time! Even if he wasnt a 3 year old colt running on the flat, there is no such thing as a madien chase in Ireland. Mute button...

I think Martin is starting to get piss--ed off as well..........Won a maiden chase at the course

I was howling when he came out with that van rooney maiden chase

tried to claim it aswell even though he clearly went against it because of the draw beforehand

He thought Starstruck was owned by Dermot Welds wife and not his mother,I would expect any pundit on TV talking about Irish racing to know those colours.

He sounds like he is going to rough this industry up with his aggressive punditry style. just what it needs another clone.

This g0b**** is on the overhead in the bookies from time to time and he's a total guessing muppet.

At "There" Races. Can I buy the spread on the amount of times he says "There" about 10 a min at the moment.

rather be walking across hot coals than watch this anymore

-----------------------------------------------
He must of never heard of Mountain Coral either who has only run the 50 times ....

This has got to be a wind up every time i hear him off mute he keeps saying this fella given a beautiful ride

said that about G Carroll earlier and the muppet finished 2nd,absolute smoker.

my god... he just said emmet mullins is a top jockey

wonder what happened to this guy has he been back on ....or did you guys get him the sack after 1 day

They flew Kevin O'Ryan over from Ireland for yesterday's racing, so we can probably presume that Clifford won't be back.
