Just as they were talking about him this week - does anyone know why Hugh Cahill was binned from Weighed In/Racing Only Bettor?
Nothing against Vanessa Ryle who is a knowledgeable, professional broadcaster - but felt Cahill playing the novice set up Blake vs Calvin well. Now it feels a bit stacked with "establishment" voices vs Calvin dropping truth bombs making it unbalanced and I don't listen as much tbh

What's the score with tickets for the Dublin Racing Festival please chaps? Which are the best tickets to get? Few of us going over, meeting a few from Dublin so accomodation sorted already. The lads over there don't know much about the racing so I'm in charge of where we end up on course.

Looking at horse racing funding in latest Irish gov budget:
“Horse Racing Ireland's funding will be increased by 4% to €72.8 million along with separate allocation of €5.2 million to sport horse sector for next year”
.
I had a quick look (2 Google’s) at British gov funding couldn’t find anything definite. How does state funding look like across the pond?
75 mil quid for the year seams like a hell of a lot of money sloshing around Irish racing
