Comments on: Tony Keenan: Some Further Thoughts on Race Reading https://rpapi.ggzssd.co.uk/2020/03/20/tony-keenan-some-further-thoughts-on-race-reading/ Just another geegeez site Tue, 24 Mar 2020 18:19:50 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.7.15 By: Samuel Carson https://rpapi.ggzssd.co.uk/2020/03/20/tony-keenan-some-further-thoughts-on-race-reading/#comment-550 Tue, 24 Mar 2020 18:19:50 +0000 https://www.geegeez.co.uk/?p=2802723#comment-550 Thanks again Tony. Captain Guinness would have set me up well for the week but thankfully seemed OK which is all that matters. I have to say watching NH racing in a closed arena was quite unsettling. It is one thing, which I feel guilty about, seeing horses pay the ultimate price in front of a crowd, but quite another when you can no longer say it is a sporting risk but simply for the benefit of bookmakers and the levy.

I’ve been watching horseracing since the late 1960’s, but it wasn’t until I acquired a video recorder and could watch a race multiple times that I could learn the skill. But as Tony says, if you leave it a few days, let the emotions drain away, and have the benefits of researching the form again in hindsight, plus having knowledge of the race time and ground, you can (perhaps) spot something most have missed.
