What a complete farce today is!

Absolutely!

You just beat me to it! The clashes are totally ruining things

Would you guys say our friend the Mad Bomber is at work today?

I saw an absolutely huge steam before - something like 80K in 5 seconds!

Racing in the UK is run so badly, they all need sacking and a new team brought in. It needs completely re-thinking it's so farcical. It's stuck in the stone ages.

One of the biggest scandals is that the media don't hound them about it. All aboard the Gravy Train - choooooo choooo

I have said it before and will say it again - fine the courses when late off without a valid reason.

Fully agree about the other comments on the OZ thread - we run our sport in a mickey mouse way compared to Oz. Or compared to most other sports!

Whip strike!

17:15 Aintree, Jockey's refusing to turn out for the last race because of a whip ban applied to Ruby Walsh.

Well they are out now, I guess we will have to wait to hear what is going on.

It doesn't help having the likes of Tom O'Ryan talking rubbish as he miss counted the number of hits. There were 9 definite hits and 1 more which is questionable so no matter what he over hit the horse though Tom claims only 8 hits and possibly 9.

I wish he would just go take his pension as he makes error after error!
