    Reasonable question.

    Don't think I've heard of him either or if I have I've forgotten.
    Ah! but a man's reach should exceed his grasp......

    Read his comments on Kemboy in the JLT and decided he could do one.
    The older I get the better I was.

    Roy set up and ran Neigh (was called The Steeplchase Studio originally), for anyone that ever looked at it in days gone by. A thoroughly knowledgeable and decent guy. As with anyone who commits their thoughts to print or the internet it's unlikely you'll agree with everything written, but Roy often takes and alternative non-mainstream view and it's well worth listening to or reading.

    Possibly the same guy that posts under the pseudonym steeplechasing on TRF?. If so, never had much to do with him but from bits I have read he comes across as a decent bloke, with a knowledge of the sport and I've read (lots of) worse judges.

    I haven't read the linked doc (yet) but I glanced at it and while I doubt I'll agree with all of it it's hard to criticise anybody with the love for the sport and patience to go into that level of detail.

    Alcohol, because no good story ever started with "I was eating this salad..."

    No, steeplechasing is Joe something.

    Never visited Neigh so that explains my ignorance of the name.
