That excellent round of jumping by Jonbon proves just how bad a jockey De Boinville is.

An opinion piece about climate and how racing has to adapt. Comments welcome.

Amazing that they have destroyed the credibility of both The Grand National and The Derby in such a short timeframe. Utterly ridiculous...

[British Horseracing Authority @BHAHorseracing]

It is completely understandable that decisions taken by BHA officials may prompt passionate debate and be subject to robust scrutiny.

This is the nature of elite sport and something we do not shy away from.

However, we will never accept vile and unacceptable abuse directed towards BHA officials. This is a growing problem, especially on social media.

Some of the recent commentary under our posts is simply appalling. Everyone involved in British racing deserves to be treated with respect.

@BHAHorseracing Start doing your bloody job properly then.

@thebedfordfox @RacingPost It's an abysmal rag. I wish someone would resurrect the Sporting Life, even if only online.

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

Absolutely disgraceful.. i don't recall a similar outcome after No Drama This End at Cheltenham when that idiot starter, Robbie Supple, bollocksed up his chances? What if Benvenuto Cellini had won? The BHA are utterly unfit to run the sport... #DerbyFestival

@TheRealJamieKay Am I the only one who couldn't give two hoots about what you think?

@thebedfordfox Thursday is the most underwhelming day of the Festival. All filler, no killer. The Mares Hurdle is pointless. Back to three days please 🥺

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

@WattyRacing Hell yeah 👍🏻

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

@arkle1964 Yes. A very good idea.

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

Would it be feasible to move the winning post on by 30 yards at Cheltenham so that the starts don't have to be on a turn without losing race distance?

Just a thought. Something has to be done because this is the showcase meeting for the sport and it's an absolute shambles.

@SkySportsDarts I'd have put Beau Greaves in as a curveball choice. I think she'd surprise a few people.

Why have @Sandownpark scheduled the big race of the day at the exact time the low sun will affect the pond fence? Madness! 🤬🤬🤬

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

You can't beat a 4 runner hurdle with a 1/9 jolly to kick start Saturday at @Sandownpark. The next race looks like it could be even better. There are 5 runners in this one! 😔😔😔

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

@tony_calvin Disgraceful 🤬🤬🤬

[G⭕ing Behind @GoingBehind]

I remember when the first Saturday in January at @Sandownpark used to be Mildmay-Cazalet Chase day. Now it's just another day. Tomorrow's card is particularly uninspiring, as are the meetings at Wincanton and Newcastle. Cheltenham had a record crowd though. That's what matters!😞
