2.15 Ripon – Betting graphic shown before and after race.
Chepstow – Only 2 races to show, but decided not to bother anyway.
....and you've got to look a long way back for anything else.
Well as Chepstow was abandoned maybe there wasn’t any need to show the 2 races that were run?
On a side note this is not the first time Chepstow has had ground problems. I know you can’t do much with a waterlogged/unsafe course but I’m surprised they keep getting away with it.
If ATR is considered a racing channel (and not just a betting opportunity facilitator), their first priority should be to show every race from their contracted courses in full, wherever possible.
As Chepstow’s second race was late off, it was shown in split screen. There was plenty of time to show a full replay in full during the live show, but they didn’t.
The review slots should be used to rectify these sort of things. There was a complete slot available at 11.30, but we just got a another repeat of Southwell. So no excuses at all.
Admittedly there had been a definite improvement since the initial move to MK. Not likely to see much changing in the 4 months left and who knows, we might be thankful of what we used to have when Sky Sports Racing starts.

4.45 Fakenham – Not shown, presumably because the live on course commentary was lost part way through the race. Would have been perfectly possible to add a replacement commentary, or just show the pictures without sound (that’s happened several times when there has been a commentary).
....and you've got to look a long way back for anything else.
Tommo could be heard during the silence saying he had lost pictures but chose not to continue his commentary. He relies entirely on screens as he doesn’t use bins. Very unprofessional.
