Response to Forum postings

Good afternoon all,

Firstly I just want to stress the future of live shows is not in doubt. As Getminted Racing is still in it's infancy as a show we need to try out a few different options before we settle on the right format. Now before you shoot the messenger I agree that I would like some aspects of the show to stay the same also, but many decisions are out of my hands. The show is improving behind the scenes and expect to see a more professional and polished output in the near future (especially in the new year).

The purpose of trying out one presenter is to ensure more of the horses are looked at before races. The main reason for this is that some owners were rightly annoyed that their entrants were overlooked due to too much banter between presenters. If we remove most of the banter then perhaps it makes sense to have just one presenter. Again lets see how it works if indeed this is the path that the programme makers decide to go down.

So you may wonder why I asked for your feedback if the decisions will be made anyway? Your input, be it positive or negative is logged and will be taken into consideration when making future changes.

The producers have noted your comments about the 'shouting' presenter too, it may well be a problem with the microphone.....it's not a problem with your tv sets! By the way Dave is the producer not the presenter in question.

Cheers all,
Graham
