It's just in my humble opinion, channel 4 have provided excellent coverage and analysis of racing for the large majority of the year, which shows their true commitment to racing, and i think it is rather cheeky of the beeb to muscle in for only one of a few saturdays in the year, purely because the Derby is the most important race of the flat seasons calendar.
In protest i just walked to the bookmakers to watch it, though i had no betting interest.
