Connor McCann - Kelso pundits desperate to say anything other than....

'half a ton'...

half a grand you idiot.

stable is rancid and he's a young 7lb claimer..was way too far out of his ground,was it intentional or just poor judgement?

no idea Mr.Hunt...

but it is very annoying when these pundits completely ignore the BLATANTLY obvious...

and fall over themselves to make excuses for the person on top...

as i've said many times...

pundits play the game as does the BHA.

Dan what's his face...

falls over himself to suck up to jockeys and trainers at every opportunity it would appear to me...

no wonder RTV gives him so many shifts...

they don't want boat rockers.

Rico is supposedly correct with his stable comment. But at least the Post were accurate with their ir comments , "left with too much to do" .
Though he is a 7lb conditional so they don't mind shooting them , but were it a top flight jockey would they be brave enough to say the same ?
Not so sure personally.

it should have won comfortably.

the post-race RTV punditry comments i heard were hideous...

as i've said many times on here...

all they seemed to want to do was protect the jockey coz they knew he'd given it a howler...

ZERO balance whatsoever...

is that what RTV head honchos want their pundits to do ?

it would certainly appear so coz when do you ever hear ANY of them saying ANYTHING negative about a jockey or trainer ?

very very rarely imv...

it's just endless Suck Up City stuff imv.

Load of rubbish again here. The ride given to Evaluation was no different from that given to other horses any day of the week. It was not unusual; it was however not well judged. There are just too many such rides given to horses which supposedly "need held up". Dozens such rides result in flying finishes too late when the winner just finds a little more on the run in. Happens particularly (and obviously) when the pace is not strong. Also he gets a 7lb allowance for a reason!

what's the 'load of rubbish' bit jimmy please ?

Also he gets a 7lb allowance for a reason!

--------------------------------------------

some folk would say the horse had a better chance with a 7lb claimer on it jimmy.

lucinda..' connor sonna,justy hold this up well off the pace and let it run on late'.

connor..'ok boss'.

The term held up is a bit misleading. It shouldn't automatically mean anchored in the rear of the field. You can still be positioned in mid division but at the same time be holding your horse up off the pace.

Its all determined by the pace of the leader/s.

3 market leaders in the Perth 4:22...

pundits talk about the other 2 but fail to mention the CM ridden Hay Meadow...

why ?

coz they don't want to mention 'yesterday'...

you ain't fooling me guys...

i know the tricks of the trade.

would've been nice to see what happened to Hay Meadow there...

telly director didn't want us to see tho and used the robot cam at the final hurdle that doesn't show the horses landing...

tremendous work lads.

Conor not riding it today...
