I'm sure thousands of families and young kids are just enthrawled with one of the main channels devoting an afternoon to horse racing.

I think the regular programme will be on ITV4 today and Cheltenham festival are the only ones on ITV

1964.... Racing is the 2nd most populated sport in this country after football... so why should it not get coverage on mainstream ?? Just cause you don't like it plenty do.... or have you just got the 4 channels on your TV ??

From what I saw it was a promising start. C4 had gone massively stale at the end with McGrath and Cunningham being way past there best for me! Getting Chapman on board is a good shout I reckon.

Would anyone watch it if betting wasn't allowed, probably not many.

Obviously not as many Bertie, but I don't bet on the horses but still like to watch them race, as I just like the animals.
I know people who don't really like football but watch it as they've got money on it, so its the same with most sports I'm sure.

The sport would obviously get less viewers but one of the criticisms levelled at C4 in the last few years was there was too much focus on gambling and not enough on the actual sport!

I thought it was a decent start in poxy weather. one thing they should ditch though is interrupting Richard Hoiles during his commentary. analyse the race after its finished FFS

I'll have a bet but it's more about the horses, jockeys, trainers and owners for me.... love the history of the sport... it's all about the balance and for me today it was just fine... promising start

I'm no fan of Chapman but he's miles better than Tanya Stevenson
What bugged me was having a gold cup/ national winning jockey asking a former cyclist how she would approach a fence / look to cope with the ground.
That would be like her asking me how to cope with a stage of the tour de France just because I've done the Ride London

Spot on, I said the same thing. Seemed like there were a few too many people involved. Do they really need a weather girl on there?
