Clare Balding

[richblue67]

Am I alone at being disgusted at the way Clare Balding treated the winner of the Grand National today with regard to saying now he has won the race he can afford to have his teeth fixed!!!!!!!!!! What the fcuk has that got to do with the fantastic achievement of riding a 100-1 winner home in the comfortable style he did??? Im outraged at the embarrssment she put Liam Treadwell through in front of many millions of people in what should of been a moment of glory in the young mans life..................:@:@:@

Re: Clare Balding I never watch racing on BBC now............they've dumbed down incredibly on the Grand National and Royal Ascot ( the only meetings they're interested in)........... It's all about 'human interest' and faux sob stories..........a bit like that music show where they audition people and they're only interested in the ones who's Mum died last year or who's dog broke his leg...........and how brave they are in the face of such tradegy............ You know the kind of thing.............'Dobbin, the horse who's come back from having his tail clipped in 2005..........such a brave horse and his jockey Paddy O'Flanagan, who suffered tradegy when he dropped a pound coin down a grid.........that was only 3 years ago and here he is, such a brave young man'........... Yaaaawn...................:zzz:zzz
