    Ah that explains it LD.

    LD73 – When Francesca, Ed and Hayley were in the boat they tried to give the impression that it was actually Tuesday. Ed says racing starts in less than an hour. Francesca is wearing the dress she wore Tuesday and Ed the waistcoat he wore Tuesday. It was not until later in the day that Franseca lets the cat out of the bag.

    My guess is that Hayley was due to be on the show Tuesday.

    Just as well the weather was similar or they would have been up the creek without a paddle.

    “My guess is that Hayley was due to be on the show Tuesday.”

    Don’t think so chestnut, a lot of the stuff they start the programme with is pre-recorded with a script. Obviously they didn’t expect Docklands to win and got caught out ;-)
    I bet Hayley was gutted at missing out.

    I know I don’t watch the show much (only when I have to) and probably more than a bit out of touch with what’s been going on with the presenters but who’s the sire of Hayley’s foal?
    good luck to all

    The Ante Post King would be on the shortlist

    Note to Martin Dwyer. The name of O’Brien’s horse in the Gold Cup is not pronounced Ill E No Is. :wacko:

    Most of the presenters I can take or leave, but the two that really p**s me off are the so-called fashion experts who briefly talk drivel to people who have equally nothing to say, before moving on to quaff champagne and shove Michelin starred goodies down their undeserving throats.

    Fair play to O’Brien, he gave a good talk about all his runners in the second race and about Illinois as well when asked by Hayley Moore on SSR.

    I’m really pleased that ITV racing highlight a bug bear of mine which is the way that Coolmore owners elbow the grooms out of the way and don’t let them lead their horses in. I always rather hope that the winning horse will play up and tread on their feet. Or, in the case of Ascot slobber all over their dresses…

    Great interview with Gosden post Gold Cup win for Trawlerman. I could listen to him all day

    I agree I’m not a fan of his but he does a good interview when he has a winner. Thank God I didn’t have to listen to Chapman harping on about “the lads” again.

    My dearest wish for ITV racing … someone in the paddock who Chapman has just intruded on telling him where exactly to stick his microphone!
    I cannot think of a more loathsome sight that having that man come rushing toward you when you are enjoying a day out at the races.
    good luck to all

    I actually like Chapman, probably because he’s a little unpredictable and always has people on their toes or out of their comfort zone with their standard answers.

    It’s not always been like that, I also found him loathsome, but I think he’s improved with age.

    I started to like Chapman when I listened to his Cheltenham podcast with Paddy Brennan.
