A raised middle finger aimed at the Trainers lounge normally means " that's for Jocking me off the second horse!!"

pirates I think it's a habit from Nico.......... which he'll never break ( no matter how hard he tries )
perhaps he feels he has called the WHOLE field home, when u mention the last runner !

Many times the horse that runs last has picked up an injury so I can see no reason for him raising his voice to emphasis that horse. It's just plain nasty

The on course presenters had the horse banker it in all their bet types yesterday and I think Nico had questioned that earlier on in the day,Im sure there was no malice intended, maybe just a dig at Julie and Dave who do that sort of thing to fellow presenters all the time...

Give everything but up!
