Always wondered what lad AP McCoy did before he started the ITV Racing gig. Now I know.

If you have something to say, don't wear a mask.

Isn't 'misinformation' just lies?

I thought Paul Hollywood got that sentencing about right.

Thoughtful, measured piece from David Jennings in Racing Post , drawing distinction between criticism and abuse. Hopefully a few will change ways. And as for "How many winners have you ridden?", as our man says, you don't need to be Gordon Ramsay to know a rotten ravioli. 👍

A deeply moving piece on the late Graham Thorpe from Mike atherton in The Times and The Sunday Times today.

Might be a bit old skool but I really miss the main summer months being about 3/5/6 match test series and plenty of county cricket with the T20 blast taking us around the country with finals day being the showpiece of the county season. Just seems like the cricket season is empty

Just got an email asking me if I wanted to start a monthly subscription to buy pork with ham, salt, water, potato starch, sugar and sodium nitrate. Turned out to be spam.

Hand ball, surely...?

That performance by #CityofTroy at York yesterday. I take yonks before I personally call a horse great. He was great. @LeeMottershead in Racing Post says he 'justifies the hype'. Yup My late Grandad would have said "That was Jeffrey brilliant Michael, Jeffrey brilliant". Ditto

At Edgbaston to support Kent Cricket Charlie Stobo is bowling. Wonder whether his younger brother is The Littlest Stobo?

If like me, you enjoy Caitlin Moran 's Friday 'Celebrity Watch' in The Times and The Sunday Times , I've news. Despite being 70 and not always having heard of all protagonists, was sad to see it had been discontinued, and commented as much to Mrs B today. Apparently it moved to Thursdays months ago.

Dan Lawrence batted rather like that first wildebeest of the herd that jumps in to cross the river full of crocodiles. Maybe a land of milk and honey and a winter tour to be had if he'd reached the other bank. But he was comfortably snapped up halfway across. #BBCCricket

Not personal, but do Surrey, with all their resources, not have a young spinner ready to come through to play? Nope, reach into bottomless wallet, and if they do win, supporters won't care who wore the shirt. Surrey sign Shakib for key Somerset match - bbc.com/sport/cricket/…

Well batted today Jack Leaning Well batted today Harry Finch. Looking forward to an energetic new start next season, regrouped and refreshed, you're both key to Kent Cricket and the future.

Be good to know how much cost Surrey Cricket to rent Al Hasan for Somerset match. Already got a huge squad with contracted players gagging to play. Vitality County Championship fellers, not rent a gun. Presumably Kohli and Bumrah coming over for Durham and Essex games? Justice done at Taunton.

Question for Kent Cricket from an Notts Cricket supporter. Why does Colin Blythe, who died near Passendale in 1917 in World War One, not appear on this board please? Thanks.

Hello Benjamin Watts We're sitting downstairs, and a Notts supporter just asked me why Colin Blythe, one of Kent's greatest, is missing from the World Wars memorial board on the wall by dressing room? Do you know anyone who could help please? Thank you en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Bly…

Grateful for any help with the correct collective noun I should have used to describe a group of the small rodents, but for now I'll just say England have batted like a bunch of lemmings for the past 20 overs. #bbccricket
