TWO HEADS ARE BETTER THAN ONE..

Yesterday we had racing from Scottsville, the Capital City and as per the usual , there were two on course presenters/tipsters to assist the punters in winning some New Year cheer.

However, what I would like to know is at any given stage during the meeting, did one of the two heads not see it fit to witness and relay to the viewers that on this out of season ordinary meeting out in PMB, one of the province's oldest and most loyal patrons, Mary Liley had made the trip out to the 'city in the country' to see her two runners on the day perform.

For the benefit of the younger punting fraternity, the Liley silks have been gracing our turf and er. poly for over 45 odd years , mostly out of KZN.

Surely an interview prior to the 8th race where the MR81 rated exciting 3 yr old HIGHWAY EXPLORER was running, with Mary Liley could have been appropriate, with the presenter gently prodding the question whether it was this runner or the one in the next race that had prompted this doyennne of owners to make the trip out to PMB?

We live in hope, but dissecting each runner without highlighting the positives mentioned above is really a wasted exercise IMHO. :(

ML is extremely camera shy and I doubt very much that she would have granted an interview...but those silks have indeed been around forever...
Give everything but up!

I would like to ask GC why they have 4 and sometimes it seems like 5 presenters if you include Craige Peters at night meetings (I think i heard Sheldon, Deez, Craige , LOCKE and the Female presenter all at once)- this is an unnecessary waste of money and I wonder how the Board can justify that? Also if confuses punters when there are so many opinions to listen to.
