Just watched the 4.25 haydock on RUK where the gamble Nevertika bolted and did a lap of the course.Graham Cunningham blasted the trainer for running the horse which pulled up a circuit early.He was supported by one of his colleauges at another track who joined the gamble.
Wouldn’t have happened on C4 , would of had Leslie Graham ass licking the connections with her false smile on.
I would like to hear something like " that was a bad ride….." instead of excuses , just once in a while.
And what does " what a great training performance…." actually mean? I don’t want to hear that when a 33/1 shot has won.
What i dislike about C4 Racing is the ass licking by presenters.Leslie Graham is a prime example.She always has that false smile when she interviews the winning jockey straight after the race.She is always full of praise for the winning connections even though it may have been a 40/1 shot and half the nation have done their brains in on the odds on favorite.
They never say anything negative about any trainer or jockey.K Fallon didn’t get much stick when accused of race fixing and the time he was guilty of taking cocaine. D Gallagher twice or was it thrice? G Bradley former jump jockey who blatanly lost on a odds on shot in a 2 horse race about 15 years ago is treated like a saint on C4 Racing.
Remember that awful ride P Carbury gave Harchibald in the Champion Hurdle a few years back.The next day on the morning line they said totally exonerated him saying thats the way the horse is.
J McCririck slated the Dunguib jockey last week , i didn’t see the morning line or know whether it was justified but it makes a change from the constant ass licking.
True I did my dollars on Ballenger Ridge ,Man Mood , Harchibald and Dunguib but even if i had backed the winners instead , i would expect them to say what everyone else is thinking and not make up lame excuses or them.
