There’s a show called the paddock on YouTube with ted Walsh as the guest well worth watching especially for his views on American racing.

"The Wexford Stewards" was a Ted special
 |
|
By:
Absolutely brilliant the Wexford bit at some stage I would think he will have a runner there might be awkward.
There’s a beach at Wexford there were probably on it |
|
By:
Not an ounce of nastiness and simply stating how it actually is
|
|
By:
Correct I was surprised at his thoughts on the best jockey but I must admit I thought he was top class also and often gets forgotten when talking about the best jockeys.

Going to Pipe's fried Dunwoody's brain as he was often put on the wrong one,much to the chagrin of Dunwoody's Punters.
AP didn't give a rats |

I like the fact that even in such an informal setting Ted has a tie on |

Me too.

It’s history now but it was the spreads winning distances .

By:
Just spent 30 seconds trying to work out what a fried bridgewater tastes like before I worked it out

Walsh's 'defence' of Byrnes was the same as Fitz. Couldn't believe he would jump deliberately. That is not the same as stating that he didn't, is it. The reason why he did, is probably blind panic and fear.

Ted loves the Irish collecting the English money at Cheltenham…..he’s certainly not a fan of the Union Jack….
|
|
By:
He is undeniably an entertaining speaker. But yes I wouldn't look to Walsh for answers regarding correcting the supposed Irish domination of racing. I'm not a fan of the presentation or the apparent collaboration with a left wing podcast, so it was my first and last.

Doubtful i will be tuning in anytime soon,not impressed tbh..

Still my fav line from David Pipe to son " You'll never train a winner "
|
|
By:
Does he have a son?
If so, its a bit soon |

In Tramore some years ago Ted trained a non-jigger for Luke McMahon with the son, Aubrey, up that caused ructions and was referred. I was in the Turf Club/HRI when the case was heard and there was wall-to-wall TV screens showing the ride with crispest video that left no-one in any doubt that the case was a slam dunk for the stewards. Watching the video in a huddle, about 3f from home Aubrey said that an apparent stumble was his main defence and he was lucky to survive. Ted's reply was "It's a pity you didn't f****** fall off Aubrey as you'd have saved us a lot of time!"

lol
Anyone remember the trauma at Tramore when Condon(?) went a circuit early? I know I did it in but unsure why or how |
|
By:
Ted is hardly likely to criticise another Irish Trainer,is he?
The points he made about a "pull up" down the back straight was logical. The conclusion must be that Byrnes Snr never gave the outcome much thought |
|
By:
Presumably the plan would be set the pace for the winner to come breezing past. But it didn't. So what does one do with a hurdle to go and no sign of the one associates have lumped on, with only a handful of seconds to decide.
|
|
By:
A glance down at halfway followed by a pull up would have avoided all of this.
Arrogant and clueless |
