King Of Comedy should be winning today, surprised he is not odds on.

 

Is that a reference to Jeremy Corbyn? Although can't see him winning anything...

 

Jeremy Corbyn? Guy frightens me to the point of considering voting SNP

 

I would rather think of the R.E.M. song, Corbyn form has a row of duck eggs next to his name.

 

frightened easily then , can you list in adult terms , what precisely is it ,in your own words ,not from the Daily Fail or other rabid rags ........

 

The fact that he never seems to be able to declare what his policy is on anything meaningful. Obviously for fear of upsetting the 7/8 of his party who think he is a plum.

 

DUKE STREET has been given a big chance by the handicapper on his return from injury problems and has won back from a layoff twice in the past.

 

The fact he wants to nationalise rail, electric, mail and water industries...abolish non state schools and send the country and its economy into absolute freefall.

Some people call him progressive, I prefer to suggest he’s massively regressive and like BoJo he’s really dangerous for the future of this country.

Or in racing terms, would you be backing a dirt horse to become a classy G1 turf horse? It’s horses for courses.

The only place JC should be is stood outside parliament with a placard protesting about some wrongdoings.

 

Nationalising rail and utilities is taking back public needs , the only people against it are said shareholders in these various pirate organisations.
The absolute disaster that is the so called housing market , where the tories have to artificially stimulate and support it due to its twisted nature , public housing is needed almost as much as after the war .
The cuts to services and civil life are unnecessary and cruel , if that’s your bag , well i pity you .

 

Two wrongs don’t make a right, what this country needs is a liberal but economically stable politics. Instead we’ve got the awful cuts of current leadership or the stark raving economic killing communist-lite politics of the Labour leader and his ideological followers.

She looks a rock solid Fav

 

Racing question to the forum, on this dank and drizzly day.

Given the poor field at Perth yesterday for the novice chase, how would you propose to solve the issue of races that are thoroughly uncompetitive in that sphere?

 

To much racing surely dilutes the quality?

 

Two interesting points already, I think most will agree with the dilution of racing. How would you go about changing that though? Given that racecourses are businesses and reducing their racing would cause implications on their ££ and thus have all sorts of ramifications.

 

As for a betting tax, surely that would reduce revenue for the sport in the long run with people betting on anything but racing if it stood alone as taxable?

The second point is the one I am swaying towards, I think a removal of handicap marks transferring from hurdles to chases is worth looking into. That would mean they all need to get rehandicapped by running in beginners/novice chases, which could be banded on hurdles marks if needed.

This would do away with novice handicap chases for the first half of the season and push those horses to run in novice races instead.

 

The French seem to have the prize money sorted ,they of course only have pool betting. .........
