He freely admits himself he is not a tipster so other than putting a few quid in his pocket what was he doing on the show? They shouldn't be using him at all as a tipster. Mind you Weaver is no more than a glorified dart thrower so the public completely stitched up.

Anybody who is dependant on Tipsters is doomed to failure.
Ruby was a top class jockey and his knowledge of horses is beyond doubt.
BTW,he was an awful tipster when he was riding

I agree. Walsh is a race analyst, not a tipster. I think his presence is to add credence to having the Morning Show which is a nondescript anyway.

The new 'Chair' at the BHA could be a positive change from the old. He was a former punter which is foreign to the previous. He made a few valid points eg horseracing is for the people; entities involved should work together; etc. However, he did not offer a change of business strategy for the bookies eg remove fobt from high street bookies to prevent the impending hike to 40% tax to alleviate the public sentiment to gambling on the high street.

I think the removal of fobt from the high street bookies in the UK is the only way to avoid the tax hike to 40%. Anything short will be seen as a climb down by the government. Fobt has no place in the high street bookies.

I notice no-one asked him about Galopin de Champ's death or his stable(Mullins)being found out..

Walsh is wondering why he was singled out for a thread, with the likes of Micky Fitz holding his hand out, Gina G on the other channel etc….

Guests are brought in to discuss, we all know the horses by now not a lot to be said.

And as we all well know the horses finding winners should be easy shouldn’t it?

It’s ok to listen and to evaluate, he’s picked out something there today about Constitution River, be interesting to see if he’s correct.

Has looked temperamental the last twice pulled hard, was led to post by two other stable mates, no pace maker today.

Ruby knows the racing game, warts and all, where the bodies are buried etc, like no other, and with Father Ted as his lifetime mentor, integrity is assured beyond question. Now, get on Ruby's Nap of the Day, GSTAAD (3.20 Ascot). I'm on big and thinking of going in again!

Good luck wirh your bet Ihal, with the results in the Queen Anne I don’t go mad on anything over this straight mile, but fair play to you.

Ouch! Just like Kalpana earlier, a race too far for Gstaad today!

Hope you never went in again Ihal, that Needle Match 150/1 was beaten 1L 3/4 into 4th is a reminder to me not to go mad in the Q Anne next June.

Yes sweated and had that big D bit on today, horses head has gone.

Blame the sickness all you like, well done Ruby and nice win Ombudsman.

His tip, Gstaad, ran dismally.

Why is Walsh doing what he's doing? I'd have thought a man with his connections and immense 'wealth' would be doing something more mentally rewarding and lucrative.
