Ed busy interviewing a few toffs who sound like extras off The Windsors.
Francesca has only got the gigs because she is Cumani's daughter, and she has the looks. She adds very little beyond that. Just very dull. She would be totally lost if she had to talk to any plebs.

Careful Glasgow.....Sparrow will be on soon to put you right
If Auguste was a 100/1 outsider wouldnt have been Kens paddock pick.
He does like a favourite our Ken.....worth his weight in gold for the layers
Has he ever said "The favourite doesn't look the business today but there's a 10/1 shot that looks fully toned up?"
Grade one meetings and the horses look welll ffs
All tuned to win Ken….

Unlucky ken picked 2 out the top 3 in the betting, Nashwa hardly had a bead of sweat on it that i saw, warm under the saddle about it.
In all honesty he talks bowlocks, no need to ask him anything at all, in fact he should not be involved with ant tv channel
You just need to walk around the parade ring looking as though you should be there,easy money.
Looks nice, looks nice, looks nice, Ken no tipster.
Scenes in the Paddock KEN is Not with the Princess

“In the paddock two year old horse in the Nunthorpe lacks the maturity of the older horses”
A few years ago, Ken was difficult to listen to because of his stammer. He seems to have sorted this out completely. So I say well done Ken.
But his paddock selections seem to perform worse than random, which is quite an achievement. If I could get statistical confirmation of this, I would be confident in laying all his selections.
It may just be that he knows his stuff, but when under pressure to report his observations on live TV, he bottles it and goes for obvious form picks and favourites.

Likes Vandeek/River Tiber/Task Force in that order.
Pure coincidence 1/2/3 in betting.

So he nailed the trifecta for me with Van Deek to win and RT/Task Force 2nd or 3rd for £28.40. And said Elite Status looked poor and it finished 2nd last landing the A V B bets with Give me the beat boys :D
Good work KP.

New suit with glorious goodwood appearance money?
His parents must have been on the Windrush, no other reason to have him on.

Still no man in the ring for itv. If they put Kenny in the betting jungle
I'd have more respect for him

Does he still do a week at the races like the great Gerald Delamere use to in The Weekender.?
Best paddock judge there is. His job is to judge appearance not tip winners. Been doing the gig for over 20 years on Radio, so there goes the conspiracy theory.

Next week. State Man , Lossiemouth ,Ballyburn ,El Fabiolo and Dinoblue will all look well. Gizza job -I could do that .
The most popular subject on the forum. A legend for many on here.
Ken likes State Man & Lossiemouth

Guaranteed the next post on here will be Sporrow
just to show/prove the relevance of paddock watching, hendo,s all looked like world beaters in the paddock yesterday
Some u win some u lose.....he/she will surely be along soon
If a horse is presented at the festival not looking as healthy and fit as an olympic athlete there is something wrong surely.
That being so what's the point of any comment here?
Now if it was a 2yo flat race or an unraced 3yo race in early spring it might hold some interest.

Ken must be well connected to get that gig I can’t think of any other reason.
Ken's paddock pick Starlust, get more of his picks on The Opening Show tomorrow.

conflict of interests, not good for unbiased 'they all look nice' comments

In fairness to young Kenneth, they only ever ask his opinion at the big meetings, when almost every horse is going to be a nice horse, looking his best!
He'd be much handier during the week at the flapping tracks, when a few are not off - but ITV never ask him then..

If he is getting a fee off ITV, good luck too him.
Always go to the pre parade and paddock when at the track and good to see ITV showing the horses parading at York this week.
More enjoyable than just race flipping on the sky/premium channel.

Well done Ken good effort he should be on a lot more.
According to a BBC messageboard, "shabba" is a slang term that can mean "cool" or can be used to fill a gap in a sentence. Collins English Dictionary also suggests that "shabba" can mean "good" or "nice".
Gerald Delamere was the best imo.
and who was the original Pricewise.?

Je napped a 5/1 winner Ice (something) at Goodwood. legend imho
Ken now a regular pundit on ITV Racing, much better than most.
I believe pricewise reached its apogee and greatest influence under Melvyn Collier
