clare balding.

she surprises me with some of the comments she makes. i havnt ever really noticed it before but i think she needs to think more before she speaks considering all the fuss she caused over that jockeys teeth and having to appologise.
thoughts?

 

[MissMincePie&Brandy]

I think she's great. It's nice not having a totally bland, pc presenter. How boring would that be!

 

[dominobrown]

She knows what she on about and can be quite funny at times as well as being professional and appropriate when needed.

 

[Mabel98]

I think she's brilliant in whatever she is covering. She isn't afraid to criticise if appropriate and seems very down to earth

 

[rosie fronfelen]

shes very successful in her field, and comes from a very equestrian family- i think shes excellent. ( didnt like her hat at Ascot today though!)

 

[lachlanandmarcus]

I think shes great and shes a human being, so like all people she gaffes occasionally esp when having to ad lib live. Far rather have that than smarmy meaningless waffle.

Have to say Willie Carson almost spoils it tho, he drives me MAD!

 

[nikicb]

I think she's great - very knowledgeable and witty. And she's got the job she has based on her talents and not because of her looks (not that she is ugly, but you know what I mean!).

 

[sam4321]

i like her too!

 

[JCWHITE]

Agree she is a fine and informed commentator.Today however, I hated her hat and suit!!
Could do better!!

Why what has she said? She rocks does Clare!

 

[sonjafoers]

I agree actually, I do like her but sometimes I cringe when she puts her foot in it. She can come across as quite rude now & then but I don't think it's ever intentional.

 

[Brontie]

I admit, she certainly knows what she's talking about, But I find her voice a bit boring

 

[NeedNewHorse]

I like her.. Though I tend to like any TV-type person who likes horses.

She's fab When she made that comment about Liam Treadwell's teeth everyone was up in arms but she explained afterwards that they'e good pals and it was something he'd said he was going to do.

In any case, its always good to have a bit of contraversy; it makes things much more interesting. Go Clare!

 

[PapaFrita]

I like her.
