Harchibald was popular because he had character, immense ability and instigated us to debate what would happen in any race he ran in. While remembering him I’m smiling because he wrote himself a whole chapter of racing folklore and we all have our colourful memories of him.
@RacingPost
Spot on, he was a legend. He was passionate to do right by the punters and was passionate about the sport. Someone needs to save racing from itself.
Jonathan characterised racing in a rare and vibrant manner with his wit and humour. His descriptions, previews and reviews resonated and endeared us to him and sport further. So so sad, he will be missed by all
With a heavy heart, we can confirm the death of much-loved colleague Jonathan Neesom after a short illness.
A member of the Racing TV team from the start, we will all greatly miss his knowledge, integrity, humour, enthusiasm and love of the sport.
@RadioEmmet
The betting ring my roots, a home, full of friends and the very fabric of the sport. There’s a story to be told every day. If the betting ring was a book you’d never put it down. It’s a library of knowledge. The pointers are always there to be seen, these days more than ever.
@horsevault
Thank you for all the kind comments and messages. Wonderful times remembered with the emphasis on fun, we did laugh. Mac sorely missed. I always smile when thinking of his wit. You can be informative and still have a giggle. I’m thankful & appreciative of all the support
@horsevault
So much fun and such a privilege. I was so very lucky. Covering the betting ring in addition to the off course markets online is important, its informative and adds to the whole story of each and every race.
Trueshan shouldered the weight of history with courage and honour. Racing is a sport where the improbable is possible. Hollie Doyle once again magnificent in crafting another chapter in the sport’s folklore. A joy to behold
Tom Marquand has had 7 winners from his last 12 rides, inc a double at Bath Wednesday and four at Haydock Thursday He has also had 5 winners from his last 7 rides for William Haggas. All eyes on Sandown Saturday
Top class chat with a great bunch of lads who really know the form inside out. True racing fans and I enjoyed reminiscing and catching up with them again

I sense we’ve witnessed something very special in Desert Crown in the Cazoo Derby. A crowning moment for Richard Kingscote. As for the achievements of Sir Michael Stoute, what can you say, a genius.

Royal Ascot has produce some fantastic stories already that will resonate through future years. It’s great there’s two more days to go, with many more amazing moments to enjoy.
It’s been a busy week catching up with some really great people and enjoying racing thank you
@ayrracecourse
loved being in the betting ring again. Plus lots of fun studying the form.
So many different things resonate on viewing a race. Maybe it’s the preconceived ideas and various influential trends prior, or the pool of opinions after? It was a joy to be part of the discussion with

Given the chance on many days the betting ring still has plenty of stories to tell. Saturday at Cheltenham one example. It’s an unique arena, a bubbling cauldron of opinions. Those clicking the turnstiles boost the atmosphere. With a little TLC the whimper could kick into a roar.
Seven winners from his last 9 runners for William Haggas across Thursday and Friday. Plenty to look forward to with Sea La Rosa, Gaassee and Alenquer at Haydock and Sandown
@olibellracing
I think when looking back at Troon 2024 there’ll be shots and play by the likes of Horschel, Rose, Scheffler, Henley and many others on that back nine in round 3 and even on Postage Stamp that will be replayed or marvelled for many years to come. It’s been superb.
@Darren_Owen
Well said Darren. Mark you’ve been a true gentleman and lit up many a race call. Also thank you for all you’ve done at Monmore greyhounds.
Congratulations to those who had doubles yesterday Franny Norton (Carlisle),Archie Watson, Harry Davies & Paul Mulrennan (Doncaster) Charlie Appleby & William Buick (Newmarket) William Muir & Chris Grassick plus Robert Havlin (Newbury)
Tom Marquand has had six winners from his last 8 rides, including fabulous 4 wins from 5 rides for William Haggas at Haydock on Thursday. They team up with Golden Voice & Addeybb at Sandown on Friday

In depth, like the angles taken in each race, no labouring just on market leaders. Stats weaved in also. The ground reports so key, there’s pointers to amount of rainfall where relevant. And it covers plenty of action
PJ McDonald wins on all three of his rides at Nottingham he’ll be at York tomorrow. Meanwhile William Buick adds to his double on Tuesday, treble on Wednesday with a double at Newbury he has chances at Sandown tomorrow
Five winners for Tim Easterby on Friday (doubles at Beverley and Haydock plus one at Doncaster). Ray Dawson has had a double at Yarmouth Thursday and Doncaster Friday, he’s at Haydock today
Doubles yesterday for Philip Armson & Alexandra Dunn (Fontwell), Billy Lee (Cork) Paul Mulrennan (Hamilton) and Rob Hornby at Kempton. Rob Hornby also had a treble at Windsor Monday (riding at Newbury today)
Amazing across card treble yesterday for Richard Fahey (Royal Ascot & Ripon) and then there’s Andrea Atzeni who had a fabulous Lingfield four-timer, he returns to Royal Ascot today
William Buick rode a further winner at Haydock so that’s six rides today three winners, three seconds, to add to his double yesterday. He will be at Newbury tomorrow
Rob Hornby had six rides at Windsor this evening, resulting in three winners and three seconds. While at Pontefract Shane Gray rode a double likewise Kieran Shoemark rode a double at Lingfield
