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.
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
@thebedfordfox Thursday is the most underwhelming day of the Festival. All filler, no killer. The Mares Hurdle is pointless. Back to three days please 🥺
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.
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! 😔😔😔
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!😞
@RacingPost There will be no fallers in the Grand National, and Ed Chamberlin will praise @AintreeRaces for making the race safer. Meanwhile, we all hate what they've done.
Thank you @SkySportsPL for spoiling my evening by telling me the score of the MVG v Anderson game that I was looking forward to watching later. Absolutely no need to have done that. I'm really pissed off about it. My plan of football and darts ruined for no reason 🤬🤬🤬🤬
