Don't think they even mentioned it
Mid-division, pushed along into modest 5th 2 out, still plenty to do jumping last, ridden and stayed on strongly 1f out run-in, went 2nd final 50 yards, just denied final strides

Just denied because he stopped riding

No urgency at all in the final 50 yards,not off imo.

bad news stories are not welcome on RTV in hell...

it's all about positivity...

making out to the mug public how wonderful the sport is and it's full of wonderful human beings who are giving their all for the mugs sat at home.

Looks like the race fell in a heap in front of him which he wasn't expecting so a bit of knitting required..

You sound unhappy HibbyLaugh
By:
HappyHibby
When: 15 Jul 25 18:26
but these sort of things are EXACTLY what these pundits SHOULD be talking about imv...

by deliberately ignoring it they are just taking the mug public for mugs quite frankly...

who are they trying to kid ffs ?

no unhappy irons...

i just have never understood the reluctance of telly folk to say nowt about things...

i know i couldn't do it...

mind you that would probably mean i wouldn't last long tbh...

just like Peter Harris.

Plenty of ex presenters "spoke their minds" Hibby and are no longer employed
By:

i've never been a yes man irons...

and i don't like them tbh...

if you see something you should speak about it...

folk who see things and ignore it are not for me i'm afraid.

If presenters wish to remain in employment they cannot risk rocking the boat Hibby as I am sure you know

There was no talk about the race, post race as it was busy on the channel. They just jumped to the next race. My take on it is that he thought he was getting up with momentum and misjudged the showboating.

I'm usually one to go against a b'nt ride, but that would be a very way to ride a b'nt one, must admit. He flung it past the others, and narrowly missed the win.

could have just eased slightly when further back, if truly trying to 'stop' it.

doesn't mean to say i like it tho irons...

they can do what they want...

and when i ditched RTV i told them EXACTLY why i did ditch them...

so they lost my subscription fee but i doubt they give a fk tbh.

Do you really think that I like it Hibby?
It is merely a fact of life

what 'annoys' me is that the head honchos of the channels seem to think it's the way it should be...

never understood that...

if jockeys refuse to do interviews coz some pundit said something negative about them then so fkn what...

same with trainers...

telly head honchos seem to think we can't survive without hearing what these folk have to say...

it's utter tosh.

TWICE today i heard pundits saying...

'the apprentice who rode it last time'...

they were saying a 'professional' now rides and takes over from an apprentice...

presumably they thought the apprentice fkd up last time...

and they didn't even have the guts to actually name the 'apprentice'...

i mean that is ridiculous imv...

but that's the stage we are at...

they are all $h1t scared of saying anything negative whatsoever.

Same with every sport. The producers seem to think that talking heads attract more viewers than live sport. Very frustrating. I would love to be back in the days when one live commentator was sufficient. No build up waffle, no inane questions afterwards. Move straight on to the next live event.
