    Eh?

    Good luck to her, but what the ****
    ‘s she doing on a racing program?

    Is she contributing to the analysis of the races?

    I don’t think so.

    Has our culture really stooped to the level where we give a large amount of airtime to someone that got lucky with their pinsticking?

    What’s next?

    Will this week’s lottery winner be given a seat on Question Time next Thursday night and be asked how we can solve the problems of the country?

    She seems to be a genuine nice lady, slightly overawed by all the fuss & full of exuberance & joy. Her enthusiasm would make anyone smile.<br>She may have an unorthodox way of making selections, but she’s £600,000 + richer and we’re not.<br>Well done to Agnes.

    I found listening to that dozy Northern idiot giggling and prattling a lot of drivel really irritating, but then, Thommo’s always been like that hasn’t he?

    Good luck to Agnes H though, she was great.

    Steve – if racing can’t celebrate a 600k winner, giving hope to all players, then it’s a sad old day.<br>In addition she seemed a genuinely down to earth lady who couldn’t believe what was happening to her.<br>I’d rather watch her having the moments of her life than listen to a dry and tired paddock commentary/analysis from the boring old team at Ch 4!

    Indeed, Cormack. Well said. How many of us would gladly have had our emotions exposed to the viewing public in return for a life-changing win?

    Serious Scoop6 punters might well be gnashing their teeth but should they? How many more £2-gets-you-not-far-off-a-million aspirants will today’s publicity generate to add to the pool in the coming weeks for the serious pothunters to chase?

    Everyone’s a winner.

    She’s different class to most so-called tipsters – even  her charity bet came second at 25-1. I’m giving the game up – hail Mystic Agnes!

    She ended up with all the chips and battered the other punters.

    Love it.

    £600,000+ says bah hoo sucks to all you guys who think you are experts. :clap:

    The wife does that to me all the time! Spend ages studying form and she picks a 33/1 winner because its the cats name or what.

    <br>Couldn’t do any worse than the shambles of a government we now have or Cameron with his "We must create a new type of Britishness" cloud cuckoo nonsense.

    Infact make Agnes Prime Minister I say.

    I’d rather watch her having the moments of her life than listen to a dry and tired paddock commentary/analysis from the boring old team at Ch 4!

    Would it be unfair of me to suggest that those who prefer watching someone win a lot of money would be better of watching "Deal or No Deal" than high quality jumps racing?

    I would like Thommo to take over Deal Or No Deal.

    Ho ho ho, unlucky Big Fella that’s the £250,000 gone.

    No-one ever wins big money on Deal or No Deal!

    Agree with Steve.

    Quite clearly I’m jealous and yes it’s good for racing’s image (to the casual fan that C4 are aiming at) but I’m not sure ignorance should be celebrated like this. Saying thing’s like ‘i selected number one because I was on the M1 the other day’ doesn’t endear her to me I’m afraid. I’d like to think this game wasn’t down to chance, I’d do the lottery if that’s what I wanted, so i’d rather see a £2/week form student win.

    Car crash TV, like watching Jade Goody’s mum.

    <br>Oh dear, I’m sounding quite elitist…
