Any of ye see the 1 hour special last night where hector went with Aidan O' Briens horses to the Breeders Cup in the Us this year

Enjoyed the show. Thought AOB came across well, a true professional, although at times he looked like he just wanted to run away from Hector.

Really enjoyed it. I have become bored with Hector recently, but the show was well made. Loved seen O'Brien taking control of the horse who got a bit upset. He was in like a flash, real hands on.

excellent viewing all the same.....i dont think we'll get as much insight into the life/work of a top trainer like that there last night....no doubt hector is a spanner, but he loves the horse game too.

If I had my way I would get rid of the 'with' in the show title.

Hector Oh FcukAgain! has somewhat outlasted his usefulness, and is more likely to repel than attract the viewer at this stage.

Will this be repeated lads? Forgot all about it!

the Deel Rover · December 23, 2008, 11:23:23 AM

have any of the lads in the us ever gone to a breeders cup ?

Once again, Meath apologises to the rest of the country for Hector. We can only offer in our defence that apart from himself and the Duke of Wellington (and - OK - yours truly) we haven't inflicted that many indefensible poltroons on the world, compared to a lot of places.

Anytime I've seen Hector he's just come across as an idiot.
Is that what we're suppose to be laughing at?

I demand Pierce Brosnan be included in this.
