Is it just me or is anyone else getting a bit tired of uninformed commentators saying that horses have been plunged when they really have no idea, but just look at what's firmed slightly.

To me a plunge is a fair dinkum go at something in the ring, the horse firms in solidly and everything else blows out in the market.

Example of uninformed commentating:

"They (the professionals) want nothing else than Mr. Celebrity in the ring, they've come for nothing else"

Rubbish - Mr. Celebrity was not the best backed runner all day.

There was money for Bush Honey, Dizelle, Uprize.

Where did Mr. Celebrity run - not informed money at all.

"Johan's Toy is the one the professionals want - the informed money is going on here"

Rubbish all money was on Shania Dane and Lotteria with a nibble at Johan's Toy, how can this be "the one they want"

It just goes on and on with this final pearler after being left with egg on their faces....

"The professionals want Headturner, nothing else, and I can tell you the RIGHT money is on THIS time. This is the one they want."

Rubbish - yes there was a solid move for Headturner, but so was there money for Duelled and Pendragon, in fact it was a battle royale for favouritism. To say Headturner is the only one they want is a false and misleading statement.

Who's money, they weren't there so they don't know - they're guessing and speculating. So all the other times the wrong money was on??? Why didn't they mention that all the other moves for the day were just mug money.

Because on feature days with massive holdings on races all big movements are not mug money.

Absolute dribble.
