Jesus that ride on Swissal was absolutely criminal. He was utterly hopeless on it.
By the sounds of things, this thing was rotten to the core.
All good, thanks. Back in more rural surrounds. So less beans to be counted and an easier workload!
Was told in a Paddy Power shop (in Ireland) the other day that in a little while they'll be requiring I/D and a utility bill for bets placed over the counter in shops of €200 or more or when...

Bottom line is the horse was a declared reserve, so should have been priced up. As he wasn't, he should have been ignored for settling purposes - i.e. anyone who backed the second should have been...
Take your point, and I suppose if someone had written the name of the horse on a docket they may have been paid at SP.
But given he was a reserve, and given he didn't appear listed on their...
Happened to be in a Powers shop today to watch Galway. In the 2.45 race the winner, Mr. Smith, had got in as a reserve, however he at no point before the race was listed in the betting on any Paddy...
Outstanding stuff today Danny.
I've tried to listen to it a few times and couldn't make it through the first few minutes with Kennedy and Blake acting like a pair of kids.

Never went a yard, clearly losing interest in the flat game.
Stick a flight of hurdles in front of him; might liven him up. :p

21 day ban for dangerous riding.

That was truly sickening to see. Poor horse.
Ran a blinder, well done to all concerned.
Thought Kevin had him in front plenty soon enough mind you.
Agree entirely. It was painful viewing. Mercifully I'd had enough at that stage so wasn't subjected to Yates in the evening.
Certainly up there with the worst rides of all time. Just take the rail and keep riding, not exactly rocket science.
Not a word from the 'experts' on Racing UK or ITV about it though.
Pretty much under every radar going!! Good luck this week, I'm sure you'll be unearthing more big priced multis!
