I think the problem is people don't think the presenters know much about racing . Guy could be like us , a punter who has been into racing for many years . I think he does a good job too -

For what it’s worth, I think Guy is doing ok. People I talk to think he is as well. They just don’t get on a forum and bag him. -

They pretty much do the same thing. Discuss racing. But one s a sewer apparently according to some, and the other has the school girl name calling against posters as seen through this thread, so there is some difference . Anyway good to see some people enjoying the Ellerslie racing. Gruff not that keen though by the look of it . Ellerslie a shithole lol. Must be in the sewer as well then lol. -
Sorry but I waited and gave him time like you pleaded. I havnt seen many rave about his presenting. Seen a lot bag him. Perhaps admit hes crap. Or are you waiting for him to ride that horse that hes been bleating on about for 2 weeks now?? Talk about clutching at straws. -
HRNZ have initiated a number of ill-conceived plans over the last couple of years to encourage breeders, maybe the first thing they should have looked at was the $195 foal registration fee. -

On to Fairyhouse and yesterday's two championship races (for those wondering, the Royal Bond has been downgraded to a Grade 2 so I'll mention it only in passing). The clash between Team Mullins and Team Elliott continued after mixed fortunes for both sides on Saturday. The Drinmore Chase for the novices over 4000m saw no Mullins runner and it was three of Gordon Elliott's taking on two of Henry de Bromhead's in what looked an intriguing and possibly tactical race. The pre-race market was fominated by two horses with Elliott's FIREFOX narrowly favoured at Evens over de Bronhead's HEART WOOD at 2s. There's an old adage you don't need a lot of runners to have a great horse race and this was a thriller. With stable jockey Jack Kennedy sidelined due to a broken leg the day before (his sixth leg fracture in his career), Elliott had to shuffle the jockey pack a bit. As expected, this was a tactical affair and they sprinted from the second last. In a sprint, it always pays to be close to the pace and CROKE PARK sprang the 22/1 shock by making nearly all but the had to show plenty of resolution to hold the challenges of HEART WOOD, FIREFOX and the fast finishing GORGEOUS TOM with the front four split on the line by a length. I'm not sure we've learnt a great deal about the Irish novices from this chase and I suspect Willie Mullins won't think anything he saw here will concern him as he has BALLYBURN for the 3200m race at Chelteham and IMPAIRE ET PASSE for the 4800m race. I was a little disappointed by FIREFOX but I suspect a shorter trip might help while GORGEOUS TOM looks to need further but while some of these will doubtless line up at the likes of Leopardstown and Cheltenham, they're only playing for places on this evidence. The Hatton's Grace Hurdle over 4000m saw another intriguing clash, this time between the Mares Hurdle winner LOSSIEMOUTH and the Stayers' Hurdle winner TEAHUPOO. Both dominated their respective divisions last year but LOSSIEMOUTH arguably had the form over the shorter distance and went off 4/7 favourite. Possibly the performance of the meeting as LOSSIEMOUTH looked at her brilliant best. To be fair, they didn't go nearly fast enough for long enough and Paul Townend could sit and count his percentage from the second last as LOSSIEMOUTH just had too much speed for TEAHUPOO and came home in third gear unchallenged. The future plans for her are interesting - IF she goes down the Mares Hurdle route, she'll likely come up against Morgiana winner BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD who beat her stable companion STATE MAN. On the other hand, she could take on STATE MAN in the Champion itself. The fact she's 3/1 for the Mares and 6/4 for the Champion speaks volumes. I suspect a clash with STATE MAN over Christmas and/or at the Dublin Racing Festival will be very informative. I certainly wouldn't crab the second who just ran into a very good one here - I imagine he'll be back up to 4800m next time and in a division with next to no talent in Britain, it's no surprise TEAHUPOO is only 5/2 to retain his Stayers' Hurdle crown in March. Finally, on a personal note, this is the last contribution on this thread for a while as I'm going to be heading in a new direction from the end of the week. Watch this space - not this space, but somewhere else on the forum. -
Some disappointing numbers in some of the fields . Only 7 runners in the four year race worth 200k and 7 in the main trot worth 40k

Yes Tom, unfortunately I started reading the thread, “saw read” and responded before reading all of the other responses. Is Canterbury Nan the owner of the 3rd channel riddled with adds? If so, I wish that he would change his moniker as he’s doing Canterbury a massive disservice. Liz -
