Neil Pretorius

Always enjoyed Neil on TT. I hope you get a opportunity outside TT. Its not worth staying with that lot!

I still believe there is a place for streaming racing station on the internet.... and here we have a knowledgeable passionate resource to host the Westrrn Cape days. I listen to Sporting Life live commentaries every day but I reckon one could do more. Morning daily previews, evening guest slots and interviews, fixed time for days commentary replays etc. Etc.

And of course thrre is 2c, charl 'freeracer' pretorius. . .

We need presenters visiting of stables and finding well being and when the horses have been vacinated and how the horses perfromed with change of equipment (if tried on before the race)...there is so much information that bring about transparency in this industry. This will eventually lead to increases pools and more people getting involved in horse racing.

P should check Racing Posts website and check the differrent and variety information available to punters

why must we all guess on which side of the race course should be better going before a race and get this information by deducing this after 5 races being run.
Very few current presenters go out of their way to get this information.

Look at the initiative Julie is taking by going into the parade ring during night racing and chatting to the trainers.
Why cant this be done for all race meetings???????????????

Sorry to hear your not on any more Neil.... yourself and Jimmy, the only two that had a great eye for the horse in the parade and to post....(tu)(tu) you are welcome to give your fancies here anytime....(tu)

what ever you say , TT has lost 2 of the best Presenters, Namely ...Neil & Darel. ( Chainsaw is different Class....ONE OF THE BEST )

who makes this decision Previously it was the Kiwi , Now we have the Aussie.
can some one advise.

Neil - sorry to hear this:(

You are being missed as an on-course presenter

Big loss to the racing public and those that wait to hear your sections

All the best with Two Oceans Racing - glad to see you are still passionate about these lovely animals

Up to date every morning about what happened the day before. With all due respect, all our info online is at least 7 days behind. 3rd world country?

except for some of our tips.....()...you get it before it happens....:

A knowledge and passion for racing is not required ...............suitable presenters need to be wannabe celebrities and weak comedians to fit the bill.
Tellytrack is run like a circus so the only comfort you can take Neil,is the confirmation that you are not a clown!!

I am sure you will find far better rewards from the game you obviously love ..........all the best to you!

Looks like to remain on TT, you have to be a TiT><
