Seen a lot of comment about the groom after the Oaks - here's what you might not have seen afterwards. Worth a look. Good touch from the Gosdens, all considered - thoughts in right place.

- I have no idea how he did this but a finer, rawer tribute you will not see in broadcasting than this from @RichardHoiles to the Hunt family"Words just seem hollow and inadequate in such circumstances and all we can try and do is provide some crumb of comfort by trying to exhibit the warmth and respect in which John and his family are held." We are all thinking of you, John โค๏ธ
00:00 - 3 years ago I visited @JohnnyMurtagh and we discussed how his story would make a great documentary. Today we headed to a cinema for the premiere of the first documentary I've been lucky enough to make. It's a powerful tale. Hope people like it ๐
- I've never heard a sportsman talk quite the way Johnny Murtagh does. Our documentary is an emotional rollercoaster - lots of highs, lots of lows. Excited for you to see it ๐ "Against The Odds - Johnny Murtagh: Creating Belief" gets its first airing tonight at 9pm on ITV4 ๐บ
00:00 - If Kauto Star is up there with Arkle, Tiger Roll is up there with Red Rum. One of the rare truly great moments in racing today. Back-to-back #GrandNational wins, 4 Cheltenham Festival wins. What a horse and what a privilege to be a part of the broadcast on @itvracing. ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
- โA plane took off from London for Dรผsseldorf in Germany. And flew straight to Edinburgh. Nobody quite knows why. Which makes it the prefect metaphor for the Maybotโs #Brexit journey.โ @afneil opening #bbctw bbc.in/2FKp3mP
00:00 - Most of us have favourite horses and Beat The Bank was one of mine. Very sad he's gone today. Thoughts with @AndrewBalding2 and all at his yard, who will be absolutely devastated. RIP.
- A hugely rewarding #RoyalAscot to be a part of. Our restricted team threw everything at it and were rewarded with amazing racing. Thank you to everyone who took part in the show and to the huge numbers watching. Hope #ITVRacing are back broadcasting it next year! #Teamwork
- Owners are so important for racing yet aren't yet able to join their horse at the races. My unusual job this week is to bring them into the heart of #itvracing's coverage via zoom. Thanks to all who have joined so far! The open invitation to The Queen remains ๐ #RoyalAscotAtHome
- Possibly the best day we've ever shown on @itvracing. Huge congratulations to all the winners! ๐๐ป
- If you'd said to me when I was 6 watching racing on TV that 20 years later I'd be at the #BAFTAs with @broughscott and nominated for the same programme I don't know what I'd have replied. I'm one very lucky boy. #itvracing
- Betfair Chase declarations: Native River Might Bite Bristol De Mai Thistlecrack Clan Des Obeaux Not sure I've seen many 5-runner races this good before! Live on #ITVRacing this Saturday at 3pm.
