    Why is it everytime they interview a jockey or trainer before a race on ATR they then go on to invariably win?

    Watch and see !

    They interviewed Paddy Aspell 20 mins before the 1st race at Hexham today and then he goes on and wins the first race at 5/2 on Harry Flashman!

    Always worth while listening to trainers and reading between the lines. I rarely take much heed to what jockeys say to be honest but there are some very frank trainers in England that won't put you far wrong...Peter Grayson is a fine example. If you back horses every day you have to watch GET ON every morning imo.

    Fook me...they did it again :eek:

    GG Margarson came on at 705 this evening to talk about his runner Dry Speedfit (It was 20/1 at the time)....6 mins later it bolts up at 16/1 ! He couldnt make it any more obvious that he facnied it to win!

    Haha,have noticed that myself. Another is Soccer AM. Think they went through a period of four/five weeks and three of their guests that morning went on to score that weekend. The magic of being on camera

    I remember Davy Russell being on before the wednesday of the punchestown festival in 2006. Articulation looked to have a great chance in a handicap hurdle but when being questioned on his rides that day to say he was nonchalant and seemed uninterested in his response re. articulation would be an understatement. Handbrake was on from a long way out, never put into the race and finished well beaten.
