Mike, you have been given plenty of opportunities to name the bookmakers (or post screenshots) that have allowed you to take these bogus prices or make fantasy cash outs. You have steadfastly refused to do so. I am not the only poster to have called you out. Whether you like it or not, your integrity is in question.
You were at it again last week, saying you backed a horse antepost for the Cheltenham Hunter Chase and then claiming to have cashed out after the horse ran like a drain at Thurles. If you did cash out, it would have been for a fraction of your stake. If not, name the bookmaker which allowed you to cash out a completely dud bet (on which it stood to win) and post the screenshot as proof. Oh, guess what, you won’t.
As for Henderson, no one is questioning his record of training Grade 1 winners. But to my mind he crossed a line during his ridiculous interview with Lydia Hislop over withdrawing Altior from the Tingle Creek. He claimed the ground was “heavy”. A cursory examination of the times shows the ground was probably not even soft.
He then stupidly said that Cheltenham was “the only day that matters”, which I am sure Sandown was delighted to hear about its Grade 1 race and Betfair was so pleased to hear about the race it had sponsored.
His campaigning of Constitution Hill has been questionable and (at the risk of contradicting myself) his decision to run Sir Gino on Saturday was bizarre.
