Today Alan Thomas is complaining about the weights the horses have to carry!!!! The Name's Bond was beaten carrying 59kg starting from barrier 3. Now based on his comments yesterday you would have thought this was a sure bet given a nice inside barrier and 2nd last start. After the race Alan said there was no way the horse could win carrying this weight.

Now either weight is important or it is not - it can't be a minor consideration one day but the reason a horse can't win the next! I don't mind race callers having opinions but it would be nice if they could at least be consistent from one day to the next!
