Gamma, the real reason Alexandra Park is racing is due to the subsidised stakes from Entain cash splash, and it will finish! I would say they would have very few meetings where they make money and this is only going to make it even dire! It was surprising to see some very good prices paid for yearlings at Karaka as there is nothing surer than significantly reduced stake money in the North in 2 years! It is indeed possible that if they continue to race up there they will be racing for half the current stakes and less. Gamma, we are not putting the boot into anyone whatsoever, just trying to find out what is happening up there as They keep the public in the dark. It is a given that things ate extremely dire for Auckland and Cambridge at the moment and yet they say nothing and carry on, all the while racing up an interest bill of $115,000 approx each and every week!! And yet they run races for big stakes with only a few horses in them? Seriously, How can this continue?? Financially crippling and debt continues to grow! -
Personal opinion, we need as many people as possible on track to get a connection with our horse's young and old. In later life if we have sowed the seed I'm sure the younger generation may come back as owners but our biggest current ownership opportunity is the 50 up age group that have disposable income and that's where I'd be targeting.
