Why should your average bod care? It just means we will get presenters trying to give the impression that they actually know what they are talking about. What's new?

There are three things that should actually concern punters:-

(1) The fixture list
(2) Restrictions
(3) The policing of the sport

I can't see any progress in any of those three to the benefit of the punter. It's been the same situation for a very long time. How about calling those out instead of wasting time talking about something the vast majority will never be interested in?

Same with the Racing Post - fawning articles about trainers and jockeys, but never actually any journalism about the sport itself.

Post is a dead duck. Nothing but bookies ads and dozens of "tipsters" pretending to have a clue. "Napping" odds on shots, "tipping" horses who have won their last race or 2 in a handicap etc.. I see they have gotten rid of the 10 year trends page on Saturdays and big meetings. The ONLY thing worth reading in it. It truly helped the punter so......... let's get rid of it.
Then you've got idiots on TV who just have to keep talking. O'ryan is by far the worst. Speaks 10 words per second so can't keep up with what he's saying. Doesn't know the difference between the afternoon and the evening. Doesn't understand odds. Called a 10-11 shot 10-11 on. Incorrect Kevin. Its either just 10-11 or 11-10 on. What it's NOT is 10-11 on.

Horse racing as a Sport is so Rich. It's unfortunate to see these negative stories. Just heard AMO spending 60 million again soon!
