Maybe cos we are jealous of his knowledge and the respect he has in the industry. Yes, I would love to be paid for my opinions too

1st time poster, that would make good TV, get all the experts lined up, bring the runners in the parade ring, hear them pick out the unfit donkey and then watch the embarrassing back-tracking when the number cloths go on...'well actually on second viewing he looks very fit blah blah blah, yes in fact he is the paddock pick.'

Bitten my tongue again on this subject but there comes a time when snake oil sales have no place in 2021.Paddock inspections tell punters nothing other than a horse looks unfit or does not walk as well as the others,no more and no less,glossy coat or hairy.

Most on here can see that for themselves,it is an insult to give someone a title of "Expert" to even the most inexperienced punter in terms of finding a winner?

He hardly dresses like a successful punter and even CH4 supply him with a change of tie in case nobody noticed?

Anyone ever wondered if he has ever given a winning selection he said was worth a punt that was not a short priced fav?

Is that not the point they are promoting i.e pick a winner regardless of form etc? Nothing to do with him being skint and not beige?

Total failure from CH4 and himself.(a con is a con regardless)?

Must admit I come out on the side of Ken
Like his input on Will Hill radio, probably at his best on the unraced 2 year old, I've backed a few at big prices that he has pointed out
Don't think he looks at ease on the tv and to be fair most of the horses in the big races are ready to run
He is not short in calling out ones that are unfit or ' fat as a pig' as he likes to put it, but happens more at the lower quality meetings as you would expect

He did/does put up tips on a platform that I subscribed to for a short while, to be fair they weren't too successful but I only saw them for a month so he might have been on a bad run, we all have them.

Does he judge their fetlocks and ankles when covered up penzance? Some of the blankets are in better condition than his attire don't you think?

the dark art of paddock watching...

medium sized colt
coltish
on the leg
unfurnished
will come on for the run
hasn't come in his coat yet
anything he does this year will be a bonus
carrying condition
close coupled
looks a two year old
fillies thrive with the sun on their backs
one for the future
"fun horse for the owners"
cold backed
Green
buzzed up in the paddock
needed two handlers

You know, I reckon I've got the hang of this paddock watching lark, see ya tomorrow at the races...

Ken states "looks well in his coat,well muscled and walks well around the paddock,could be a stallion prospect if he runs as well as he looks"!!

Lump on his opinion other than Noble Locks,already gelded unless the majority eyesight is defective?

That said "It" can really run fast so maybe worth a punt?

Whether he is nice or not,,, doesn't really matter.


Seems easy money to tell me the odds on fav looks good in his coat and should win.

Maybe be contrarian and tell me the odds on fav is looking poor in his coat and might be worth looking elsewhere in the race
Or that a 3yold maiden from Gosdens looks a bit big and hairy and might be one to watch for the future.

Or maybe make your own mind up and not rely on anyone to tell you anything.

yes, but these expert judges are at the paddock and can see more than i can.....

The green colty 2yold that is balking at everything when it first gets into the ring is of more use to me that telling me the steeplechaser in the verteran's is walking calmly round the ring.


What horses are wearing racing plates, what are wearing shoes, and then what are running without any is more information that I cannot see on the telly but is really useful to know.

To want to listen and take heed though you have to believe all this paddock pick nonsense is of any value at all.

I don't personally so don't listen anyway.

Each to their own cacique so get what you're saying mate.

If anyone can ever be bothered to monitor this stuff and measure its success or failure somehow then give the guy 6 months or so , same chance as we give tipsters or even our own strategies.

You may win on the paddock pick Alphonse,ew you probably will not lose on form.

Imvho looks not a lot different to the rest,will it get the trip? I would opine yes and nothing to do with a paddock pick?

A lump ew I would think is a no loss bet?
