- This is a period piece, it shows how enlightened the current BHA is compared to the Jockey Club nearly 40 years ago. It opens with Jockeys Carson & Hide being 'carpeted' at York and goes on to show us how those that didn't make the grade received their black balls.
How desperately sad to see Simon Weatherby here shortly before he died aged just 44! Simon had been very unwell for a number of Year's and undergone a number of surgical treatments but his passing still came as a huge shock and blow to his loving family and many friends.
I too loved seeing the adverts from 40+ years ago 😅.. great these old buffers are no longer in sole charge .
👍🏴
Thanks for posting. It was really interesting as a slice of history and I even enjoyed the adverts.
Glad you enjoyed it
A very interesting piece of film.

Quite a sharp script - sometimes a certain witty aside: for example, the remark [17.00?] on retaining Piggott’s skin. And the ads! Thanks. 39 years ago ...I wonder when the most recent along similar lines was done? Subbed.
Great narrator - reminds me of the film Barry Lyndon ☺️
Thank you for posting this excellent video , do you have Newmarket , horse racing town by any chance ? Thank you .
Such a shame Simon Weatherby died so shortly after this film was made! He comes across as a good egg!
Very much so he had been very unwell for a number of year's and had surgery on several occasions.
Fascinating and horrifying. Whilst as much as one deplores the current failure of anyone to agree anything in racing this hideous autocracy was worse
fuck me eddie hide and willie carson being treated like they was in school and seeing the headmaster
It's how it was!
Just 15 years later Blair came to power and destroyed this world.
Don’t talk wet and embarrassing yourself. It may be 3 years later but a spurious and utterly idiotic comment still needs to be called out

The elitists at work.made a few quid for themselves , depending what they had backed.
We're they out to get Hyde
Seems like it ..!!

Snobs pure and simple
Do you actually know what a ' snob' is ? Most of these people were born into the Aristocracy!
