Probably just a good judge of character

He is probably terrified that he will say something he might regret. I would find it very hard to be civil to Chapman.

I don't think Portman looked at him once during the whole of his interview on itv yesterday.

I don't think Port Mon necessarily looks at anyone, he just has that (slightly odd) responsive style.

Some trainers see PR as a vital part of their job. Others would much prefer to speak to nobody apart from the owner and jockey. Jonny Portman just does his job well and relies on good owners coming to him.

thady and co are only there for the social media side,finding new owners etc,you need your bumps feeling if you think he,s training the horses

Thady looks uncomfortable doing media to me.....His old man pushed him forward for interview at Royal Ascot, and he basically brushed the old man off and hid....

He will be training the horses soon enough,,,John wont be around forever.

He has big shoes to fill but couldn’t have a better mentor, Gosden is a wealth of knowledge and I’ll miss him when he hands over.
