  • Just watching RTV extra, asked if Cheltenham grade 1's would be aiming high (as in too high), he basically says yes. Talks about trying to get him qualified for handicaps, mentions Kerry National (twice) and a race at Killarney next week.

        : "It was a good performance again even though he was getting a few pounds off two of them. Jack (Kennedy) said further he went, better he got. He probably wasn't in love with track or maybe ground. He could be horse for Kerry National."​
        That could work. A few of his previous NHC runners have gone to that meeting and winner Ravenhill ran 2nd in Kerry National.

          Interesting.
          I asked Josh what was story with LTR+, very openly put it that they aren’t affiliated with a bookmaker like many other shows and what to keep it clean in that regard. Therefore LTR+ is just another way to drive investment into the show. Explained It will never be a paid tipping service its just there to provide extra videos, interviews, final thoughts before big races etc and won’t replace the current format just an add on for those that want it.

          I thought that was a very fair response and I like the non bookmaker affiliation.

          Nothing worse than watching a show that is lambasted with bookie promotions I think it’s the dogs dinner and a huge negative.

            I definitely wouldn't want to be sponsored by the enemy that's for sure, so fair play to them.

            • They both work for Racing TV and get all the race footage because of that so the need for a bookie sponsor will be less than other channels tbf

              Those clips make their videos look more proffesional than a lot of others

              I enjoy the finishing line one myself, just four mates who like horses arguing for an hour haha

                • ….for information callhimgamblor, the ‘out of the festival’ thread is one posters inform others of horses that are out of the festival. It’s not a thread that invites comments.
