Sounds like an invite to get a letter from a lawyer. I will just stick to the facts here.
But since you bring the JR point up, how about these little examples just from this week alone:
The site says this week that Apache Cat had a new strapper this year. Don't think so. Was the same girl I spoke last year. Maybe they were talking about someone else.
And how about the photo of the kickback last Sat at Doomben. It was based on a photo of a field over the crossing at the 1600M. That crossing is made of cinders covered liberally with grass clippings. Of course it kicks back as the photo shows. But the rest of the course proper was kicking back far less than that photo implied. It was a credit to the staff that it played so remarkably.
Then a week back JR made a big show about other journos not getting the facts before they publish stories. JR was right of course about the Court Command story. Give credit where it was due...it was a good story, but we still got the self praising comments that JR always checks the facts. Not
always the case in my experience.
If the JR product suits you and you are happy to toss cash at it then I wish you and JR good luck. But for those that read the blogs like JR for the fun of it, then let us have our say too if we disagree with the content. Blimy, isn't that what Forums are about?
By the way, the new website called
http://horseracingonly.com.au/ is going terrific with a big trifecta tip last Sat plus a wealth of very professionally written stories and photographs. A highly recommended site for racing minded folk.
