IT was always going to be interesting with Ruby Walsh as a TV pundit, to see how often he called out any errors of judgement among jockeys.

It’s been a general criticism of jockeys-turned-presenters that they ignored ill-judged rides or attempted to absolve riders of obvious offences. To date, Ruby has not been slow to call out what he saw as jockey errors, mainly not having the whip in the correct hand. Joe Colliver got a mention on Saturday for his ride on Sam Spinner.
