Xerxes;An Education Especially For Mr Smit The Commentator

Ooops sorry assing, I mean asking.

Damn I'm so DUMB unlike the ' ILLUMINATI ' I typed taining license instead of training license.

Sunshine , the Greeks defended their colleagues to the death

no flies on you Chain......you are leagues ahead of many of your fellow-presenters, I'm sure you do your research and you have a huge following but surely it must either tickle your sense of humour when your compatriots mince and mash the Queens english or any-other tongue or be a little embarrasing. As for-traing licience, I'm a poor fish.......in all likelyhood Leon Setaro-will get one a decade before I get one..

I know you have your detractors but really you should consider calling local racing again - Though I don't play Mauritius I'm tempted since you started taking over that area - Come on Rocky make a comeback?

The only reason this aggravates is.....Come on guys ! Are we getting down to pronunciation now ??? Everyone makes mistakes with that now and then ! I get bamboozled with names at time as I'm sure we all do. Rouvaun calls well and so do many others if we going to start on - did he pronounce that right !? WE GONE !......Muhti Xerxes ain't exactly Queens english. The commentating Mr Hawaii, I leave to those who are better at it. I'm very happy with Mauritius now and then, thanks sunshine !

If your job is to call a race and there is a word there that you don't have the faintest clue how to pronounce, it's surely a logical step to ask someone. That's not only a courtesy to the owners and the racing public in general, but it benefits the commentator as well.

.....not pulling your chain....and it was not only Rouvaun that murdered poor Xerxes yesterday.....won't mention names but the on course presenter started the botch job
......when I say that you are leagues ahead I mean I know that you do your home work.....your master's should be endebted on the way you boost the overseas pools
and it does not come by solely reading the free tote sheet.....nor do you keep those "secret"international website addresses away from the clueless veiwers..... you asked for a Italian site with which you could get some info to the punting blind.....here www.ippitalia.equiserver.it .....it's unfortunately all in Italian but it's the best I could find.

besides the trainers horses jockeys and breeders the rest of the racing industry in sa is 3rd world so i suggest you get used to it...i can only assume that neil pretorious job is being advertised on tt and that ken rutherford is not taking his place but taking up another role in p which might have little to do with tellytrack ...would love some clarity on this matter...as for shaheen the shit that spews from his mouth regarding the new all to come bet is enough to make me bring up considering how little he understands how bookmaking prices work or does he just ignore facts and figures...your guess is as good as mine ...he also tells punters to look elsewhere on the tote if your fancy is paying well below what it should be ...what a joke ..i await his shakespeare like answer

....Pirates there are of course many punters/viewers/racing enthusiasts that don't give a toss about international racing.... yet it is in TT's mandate to promote the hell out of it... that goes for that dumb gynie cart shyte,turkish arabian plod racing and my least favourite jump racing .....TT is the betting operators vehicle to promote betting product and if they instruct their employee's to pump the tote ATC bet..... it is done with the usual ferver......I'm sure when Chain gets a few goodies after calling his favourite trainer's to ask them how to pronounce that odd tongue twister..... he then has his ATC where the best value is

I think he's a fine commentator but, yes, he gets his pronounciations wrong and once called Bit Of Bizet - Bit Of Bi Zet. The one the KZN commentators used to get wrong too was Vin d'Honneur. The Vin should be pronounced Van.

Pirates to quote your favourite word ' Muck ' the ATC is obviously not that despised due to the BIG increase in win / place pools. Not everyone has the net and a number of bookie accounts. Volumes of R6 / R10 punters are playing this bet and I seen it in the totes and good for them.
