Like me then <laugh>

<laugh> probably a bit guilty myself, without the old! Though in saying that, I like when the emotion is real and not forced upon them by constant questioning on a subject that is clearly going to trigger it. I hate an interviewer who incessantly bangs on until they get the tears.
 
You almost feel like that Brian Gleeson is threatening you directly when he has his little soundbite about what's happening in the ring and signs off with a "well Alice Springs is the each way value, WOULD YOU WANT TO MISS OUT"

Ok, take it down a notch Brian <laugh>

Great ride by Gregory Benoist on Qemah on the 1m round course at Ascot. Masterclass...<applause>
 
Loving these interviews where the jocks are clearly moved by the emotion of it all. I do not criticise Ryan Moore as some do as we all have different personalities and some more introverted etc, but it's great to see Dougie Costello and Adam Kirby so moved by hitting these heights. It is when life is at it's best when whatever it is moves us into those places which everyday coming and going fails to do, and sport is a great medium for such moments.

Oh so true, Bluesky9, I am frequently moved to tears by the football team I support, the poignancy is enormous.........:emoticon-0106-cryin
 
Surely the stewards won't throw that out? Can't believe the best horse didn't win.
Can't stand this malarkey with the camera in the stewards enquiry - professional sportsmen being quizzed by these fecking Air Vice Marshalls and having to give it the old "yes sir, no sir" <doh>

Throw him out - murdered the other horse and cost him. They will probably do nothing however.
