Could be the biggest faux pas yet "Dettori in new failed test shock" on front page.
Has it been confirmed that he has failed another test, the Rancid Post seem to be the only ones reporting the story this way whilst others are happy to say there are "irregularities" with the test |

"TETBURY became another front runner to enjoy success at Ripon, sticking on well to fend off the runner-up. Gaining his initial success, he has improved with every start this year and will still be fairly treated after a rise for this based on his best form for Patrick Bary in France."
Ah yes, that famous Classic-winning Franco-Irish trainer Patrick Bary. Clueless effort from Richard Lowther, whoever he is. |

Patrick Bary used to have an Irish Bar on the Champs-Elysées -
One of his customers was a bloke called Pascal .... He didn't drink Guiness, though - he preferred a glass of wine. |

To be balanced they do have someone who is familiar with the correct use of the semi colon. A much under-used item of pronunciation in my opinion.
Pleasing to see. |

Yeah bemused me that though Onlooker (perhaps I'm being stupid, though that's normal for me lol). Run a 3yo horses on the flat and it isn't classed as a juvenile, yet over hurdles we get Juvenile Hurdles for 3yo's

A fair novice chase, although there was no future stars on show
Copied from the analysis (sic) of the Exeter 3.20 yesterday. Where do they get them from? |
|
By:
A few days ago, a winning jockey was quoted as "getting a good toe into the race".
I have noted that some errors are corrected in their online database, though, so I give them some credit for that. When Tweed won at Newmarket last week, the paper edition analysis said that she'd made her debut at Nottingham. That's been corrected in the online database to Newcastle. And I remember at Hexham last year, Samson Collonges was analysed in the paper as staying on steadily (over 3m1f) on the run in, and needing extreme trips, whereas he'd actually fallen apart on the run-in - again, it was corrected in the online database to say "he appeared not to last home". |
|
By:
"getting a good toe". That's a good one!
The spellchecker doesn't save them of course in those circumstances. Compliment Complement Reins Reigns Love 'em! |

Racing Post Weekender - Saturday Best Bets
"It's probably not a bad idea either to side with a horse whot is reasonably fresh ... ... in this same race last year that he really found form when finishing second to Appleby." --------- Not only a spelling mistake - but awful grammar, too. Also - "second to Appleby" - is not the horse - but should read ... 'second to the Michael Appleby trained Art Scholar'. |

This one runs at Lingfield at 12,30. Here is the RP's most recent comment:
The well-supported Santadelacruze lost little in defeat and ran right up to the form he´d shown when winning at Lingfield in August. Never far off the pace, he made his challenge closest to the stands´ side fence and may have been intermediated slightly by the winner. Another classic... |

I was reading the analysis of Bold And Free's (runs today in the 12.20) win at Beverley and noticed that the report said "He was bought by Ann Duffield for 7,000GBP at the subsequent auction".
I thought that's funny, it's now trained by David Thopmson on its first run since, but then noticed the new owner is called AJ Duffield. I don't know if AJ Duffield is called Ann or not, but they had me fooled! |
|
By:
^
A J Duffield - Colours = Yellow, Blue & Maroon ... - has had 23 different horses in training. - has only ever had horses with - (Mostly) David Thompson - with Milton Harris - Dandy Nicholls - David Barron - Ruth Carr - Ron Barr. --------------- Mrs Ann Duffield - Colours = Pink and White ... Just a handful of horses have run in her name - - All trained by herself. |
|
By:
Cheers, onlooker.
So unless the analyst was at the track and saw Ann buy the horse at the auction, which has then been sold onto AJ Duffield privately, it would appear this will have to go down as another blooper!  |

Enderby Spirit - 7.05 Kempton tonight.
Spotlight:- "... 0-6 on AW, but twice runner-up." Diomed:- "0-6 on the AW but twice runner-up and in okay form." Nope. He's never run on the AW before. It's STAKES races (on turf) where he's 0-6 , twice runner-up. |

Yes, onlooker. Diomed too. Or are they the same person? Two tipsters for the price of one? - or do they sit together and copy each other's work? Hard to believe 2 people working independently would make the mistake (and, not know the horse!).

I prefer that as well does the odd typographical error matter that much after all it is FREE on line finding winners is all that matters imo, not a lot else I find it very useful personally |
