    I was hoping they had ditched McCoy as not been on for a while.

    The more I know the less I understand.

    Not that I miss him but what has happened to Matt Chapman?

    The more I know the less I understand.

    In a 6 runner race, Alice can’t identify the only grey in the paddock, even though the Kim Bailey runner has the additional clue of KB on its rug.

    Must admit I was slightly bemused by this.

    Looks liķe Mick, Luke and Ed made a quick visit to Primark enroute to Cheltenham.

    The good news:

    https://www.racingpost.com/news/britain/itv-racing-announces-increased-number-of-fixtures-for-2024-and-trial-of-live-morning-races-aCvwg7K0eJs3/

    The bad news:

    “The use of data and graphics will be enhanced under a new project called Race IQ, currently in development with Racecourse Media Group and Ellipse.”

    I hope they don’t go on and on about it because viewers just don’t care just show the races.

    Race IQ data will be even less popular on ITV. I doubt a general audience wants such detailed analysis.

    Data, when used correctly, can enhance any sport. The problem is, nearly all sports think they have to overload you with lots of stats, many of which mean very little……

    All the Race IQ data can be useful… before a race.

    We can see that Horse A is generally a quicker jumper than Horse B, or that Horse C tends to finish his races better than Horse D. Useful information, as I said.

    What is pretty pointless is telling you that you lost your money because Hewick stayed better than Allaho AFTER the race, as we can all see what happened.

    What I propose is that they have a dedicated programme before big races- let’s say Angus McNae’s Race IQ Preview Show (sponsored by Kleenex)- and then those who want to watch it can do so and maybe apply the data to their day’s betting, while those who think it’s superfluous drivel can avoid it.

    On RTV:

    Tom Stanley: What was your highlight?
    Steve Mellish: Erm..good point…

    Sort of summed up the day.

    The only good thing about todays programme was Luke’s quite funny jibes against Ed, he was on form today.

    The good thing about Harvey he gives it, takes it and even takes the pee out of himself. The one highlight of today’s programme.
