    Apologies I may have misinterpreted the reply

    Indeed. I thought we were blethering rather than arguing.

    If it works for you then great but it isn't for me as my experience is along the same lines as Simmo's.

    Shame the 2nd horse in the 12.15 Sandown was beaten so far that ITV never needed to mention it when showing the finish. I was looking forward to the pronunciation

    @ fukuto

    Racing typically does itself no favours with the 1.50 sandown

    I watched it on RUK. Simon Holt (so much better than anybody on the ITV team) was quite clear in pronouncing it foo-koo-toe.

    Simon Holt is good

    Gary O'Brien and Donn McLean look like little and large brothers

    The 2.35 race at Newcastle on Saturday was called "Watch Sky Sports Racing HD on Virgin435 Handicap Chase". Leaving aside that the channel number on Virginmedia is 535, how can they call the race that when according to both Sky and Virginmedia, Sky Sports Racing will NOT be broadcast in HD on Virginmedia ?

    They literally cannot take in everything with a single channel

    Agreed, could not give adequate coverage today.

    RTV tried to make out New Years Day was a one off with 6 meetings.

    Summer will be fun, just checked first Saturday in July - 9 meetings

    Racing TV will be at Leopardstownfor the Dublin Racing Festival preview today from 11am to 12.30pm. It will be free to view for Sky 426 and digital viewers in ROI.

    Non racing related, but does anyone know why, when I sit down to watch programmes these days, it is necessary for the cameraman to consistently shake or move the camera when filming static objects, or people speaking, up, down, often in diagonal directions? Since when do T.V producers, like the one producing Daily Politics this afternoon, think it's acceptable or good practice to do this?
