Pity that I never read the thread that was deleted and had to be alerted by another forumite, so i dont know what was said. However the fact that i am criticised here, is the best that I have heard - Racing Guru calls me out of the blue last Wednesday to ask for "my graft" - he wants me to tell him whether or not any of mine can win, for last thursday, which one etc.
My reply was simple , " I cannot give you confidence. We missed work through the rain during the last few weeks and we saw how above themselves runners were on Tuesday night. We are doing our best, definitely have chances but can't tell you to have a bet. "
What i did not say was the following -
1)Surely my Owner should get on first..?
2)let's see the bloods tomorrow. I always do my own pcv's on race day.
But , the fundamental questions or points remain -
1)Are punters all now going to phone all Trainers and ask for their graft and expect a spot on reply ?
2) Are Trainers now going to ignore all calls without known caller id's ?
3)If this is what this site supports, I can no longer post here on ABC.
For the record, two things
1)I posted on ABC that both Bah and Doing it for Dan were very well.
2)on course, I told Julie and Nico the following - both are very well and should win. Bah 's problem was the mile straight and MDK'S runner. Doing it for Dan was a nice Christmas Bet.... which Nico went on about after the win.
Maybe better I say nothing and avoid all statements at all costs or give vague answers when cornered like 90% of Trainers do ? Then I stay low profile and don't get roasted.
I leave this site, now, with one question to ALL WHO HAVE POSTED ON THIS THREAD - AM I RIGHT OR WRONG, AS PER THIS POST ? Should I have told " my graft " to Racing Guru, whom I don't know or have any dealings with ? YES or NO will suffice.
