I’m writing next year’s fixtures in my new diary! Is it fact that all these 3 tracks move to RUK on May 1?
I don’t know the answer but
Ricky Lake will be happy, he hates ATR
Trouble is if RUK end up with more and more the build ups, paddock views etc will have less time spent on them. ATR have the Irish racing and an even split on the courses is what is needed.Charles Darwin to conquer the World
Yes, I’m not keen on ATR either. Just use it to watch replays of key Irish races, and the best Jumps races at ATR courses are on terrestrial.
RUK is brilliant and I agree it would be disappointing to lose any pre and post race analysis, Machin and Neesom are the best double act since Laurel and Hardy!
However, having trawled through the fixture list, the new acquisitions fit in very well, though Taunton and Leicester on the Thursday and Friday respectively of the Grand National meeting could do with shifting in 2018 or risk becoming as annoying as Huntingdon on the Wednesday of Cheltenham!
If RUK pick up any more courses perhaps they could have separate channels for Jumps and Flat – then I wouldn’t have to put up with the latter at all :)

That’s something they only occasionally bother about, by and large they don’t and prefer people talking, whether it be boring presenters and pundits or tedious bookmakers reps.
There was only ever need for 1 racing channel for British racing, there was 2 because it allows a lot more pigs to get their snouts in the trough.
