Boxing used to be terrestrial TV's big ratings draw. Now it is only "free" for the less important or less well known fighters with the big fights being PPV. You have to assume that enough revenue is gained from PPV to offset increased advertising rates for such a contest, but it is not doing the sport much good re the public's perception.
I'm more annoyed that streaming is becoming a more "normal" mode that free-to-air transmissions. No problem if you live somewhere with decent download speeds, but useless to those who happen to live rurally. With luck I'll be dead before streaming achieves total domination!

Boxing is very accessible and easy to watch apart from the ****e they put on box office that doesn't deserve to be on box office. But even then it's pretty easy streaming it and normally on YouTube within a couple of hours too.
Morning all... Great days sport ahead so it's sit back and try and take it all in. Another day where I need about 3 TV's just to keep up with what's going on...!!

(4th/8)It is quite feasible that Nicky Henderson could have a six timer at Newbury today.

The 3:35 at Newbury is, as usual, damn near impossible to predict and, what with their stingy prices, a bookie's benefit? However, for my Saturday 'fun' I'll chuck a few half-crowns on Irish Roe e/w and Kalashnikov e/w plus a 'for dreamers only' R/F.
I also like the Ellison horse well handicapped ground no problem front runner who is fairly useful on the flat and enjoys a good gallop. Maybe another good Saturday winner for local boy cookie.
Unseated Rider...dear oh dear Brennan seemed to jump off the horse at the first hurdle
Newbury 2.25pm
Native River even money favourite. Surprised he is not odds on really...although it is quite a tricky race. Saphir Du Rheu in receipt of 6lbs a threat but doesn't have a great track record unlike Native River. Not convinced cloudy dream will stay and possibly more rain to come. On the basis last year it was a similar race I hope Native River will gallop hard and that should be enough...
Don't really fancy anything else today and not lumping on here...

Good win by Woolstone there .... Midnight Jazz disappointing after looking all over the winner 2 out.
Native River next - which I did nap

Sorry Oddy, I'm slower than my horses today - grats on napping Talkischeap in the comp
mateI'm really hoping Native River can stamp his authority on the Gold Cup picture here. He had an awesome last season and coming here fresh I think he can win this en route to glory at Cheltenham.
