Insider 3,954 Report post Posted June 15, 2022 5 hours ago, Ohokaman said: They must be pretty happy with Home Affairs based on that. Coolmore, Sir Peter Vela and Chris Waller Racing would love a win here as he goes to stud next season. Artorious is also in that race and a strong 6f at Epsom might suit him. I see it differently. Nature Strip has had his turn. Now Chris has to bow to the "big boys" Coolmore and not run Nature Strip so as to hopefully enhance Home Affairs value by millions! Typo obviously as Epson was 10 days ago, this week at Royal Ascot is the greatest show on earth, but what a pathetic job Trackside did bringing us the coverage. Obviously they weren't prepared to pay. Shame on them. d.burrow - Joan and Pam Robson 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Trackside coverage is very poor, cuts to music right after they cross the line. Not sure why they can't take the Sky Racing Australia coverage which has all the aftermath and interviews.

Do you know whose feed they are taking - it will likely be either Sky Sports Racing or ITV? The former has to show other meetings at other courses but they've arranged the afternoon coverage to reduce that to a minimum - no such problem for ITV but we get just the first six on that channel with the seventh on a Freeview Channel. ITV has Ed Chamberlin fronting and I suspect will have AP McCoy and Steve Cauthen in attendance along with Jason Weaver as the main pundits. Don't know who is fronting the SSR coverage - possibly Alex Hammond and they'll have two or three experts, ITV covers the fashion as well as the royal stuff but SSR will be all about the racing. ITV use Richard Hoiles and Mark Johnson as their commentators while SSR take the course commentary from, I would guess, Simon Holt.

I must be on a par with Nature Strip!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
