I’m not sure why they need anyone in the studio on race days anyway. I would just have a presenter at each course (although it is sadly the fashion to have two or more these days) and that’s it.
As for the increasing number of graphics covering the screen, all you need is the time and meeting in the top left corner. Everything else is redundant. This applies to both SSR and ITV as well, not just RTV.
January 26, 2026 at 14:49 #1752039Not sure many punters who backed the beaten odds on favourite Doctor Du Mesnil will agree with Kevin O’Ryan’s assessment that he “ran fantastic”.
January 27, 2026 at 21:16 #1752194Where did they get those two Josh’es Stacey & Kerr from? They add nothing to the coverage & personally detract from it.
They look barely old enough to bet.The lack of knowledge of racing history on RTV is shameful.How can a racing presenter not have heard of Night Nurse & other famous horses of the past.

February 1, 2026 at 13:33 #1752928A bit of a tetchy interview between Hislop and Mullins..
February 1, 2026 at 13:38 #1752930Never saw it , what was says , pressures on Mullins and Townsend , things aren’t going great

February 1, 2026 at 13:50 #1752937He was polite enough about the first race, if a bit defensive. But when Hislop started asking him to talk through the chances of his quartet in the next race, he said he didn’t want to and walked away.
February 1, 2026 at 13:58 #1752943Must RTV really require split screens today? There are only three meetings with reasonable gaps between races.
Would it have hurt Musselburgh to wait a minute or two?
February 1, 2026 at 14:02 #1752946That’s pretty poor from Willie , he could have have said a few lines about each , he’s feeling the pressure by the looks of it

February 1, 2026 at 14:06 #1752948To walk away like that is most un-Willie-like. Must be something going on behind the scenes.
February 1, 2026 at 14:08 #1752951…. It’s all that Hughsie Gaelic Gold cup money , how could anyone take that pressure
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
February 1, 2026 at 14:18 #1752958To be fair, I don’t think Willie knows what “50p each way” means, so he may just have been very confused.
February 1, 2026 at 14:20 #1752964True , however the hourly ” How’s Gaelic ” emails maybe taking there toll

Maybe he has realised that his darling son can’t ride over fences for toffee.
February 1, 2026 at 14:32 #1752984Would that be the son who won the Grand National? 🤔
