Anyway. Just want to discuss Irish racing. We all know racing is bent to a certain extent, but Irish racing takers the biscuit, the key is knowing what’s trying. oLve it.

What an odd system they have for deciding champion trainer at Galway?

And the reserve system they have were better fancied stable companions come in on the day of the race beggars belief.

A couple of oft cited reasons as to why corruption exists in UK racing is that there’s too much racing and not enough prize money.

In the Irish model, you have;-

Better prize money = Less impetus for corruption
Less racing = Horses have to try in order to get runs

Does this hold?

Wasn’t talking about prize money. I love the interviews on ATR with that halfwit O’ryan. ‘sure he shows nothing at home.’ Then wins by 20 lengths at 25/1. O’Ryan obviously picked the fav. Weaver & Harvey are priceless ridiculing the fool on a Friday, the clown doesn’t even see it.

Trying to eliminate non – triers is also true of UK racing, a difficult task. I have failed to profit from Irish racing over the years, it’s baffling.
