THANKS TELLYTRACK

Im with you Pirates..their will be a new breed of trainer emerging as the recession tightens..one that accepts that his/her owners are customers and not merely autobanks.

The old style of "you lucky Im training your horses" days are over and those owners who still accept that they hear nothing bout their horses for months are a dying breed.

Well done again! the blind tote at France over the jump race from the UK with a 5/10 shot and far much more at stake, tellytrack have tried 3 times to show the last few jumps and got it wrong, eventually was given the winner from Shaheen who is breaking sweat trying to get all the various jackpots in from the different tracks to get the tote money on!
What a farce, no disrespect to Shaheen, trying his best, but the guys pushing the buttons, WTF.
