that seems very unlikely given the way HRNZ are running things. for that to happen there would have to be an admission from hrnz that they are over spending and every press release,public comments that come from them tells everyone how wellt the industry is going and how much confidence they have in their policies to maintain stake levels. so even the suggestion coming from hrnnz than there may be a need for future stake cuts would be an admission that they have been painting a false picture of the state of the industry and be an admission they aren't doing a good job. So realistically,we can tell from the rhetoric they use that they are never going to admit that.They've really painted themselves into a corner as far as the messaging about the industry. Thats why,if the wheels do fall off we will see it happen on a scale far bigger than it ever needed to be. we've both predicted the first sign things are turning fior the worse will be when those making the decisions at hrnz start abandoning ship and move on to greener pastures. Maybe 18 months- 2 years time. -
Disgraceful. So much spin. Starting with the first date mentioned in their timeline being 25 April 2025 - how about we dial that back to 2023 when they started digging it up ....that is the more relevant date for the long suffering CD & particularly Awapuni-based trainers & owners. That makes it over 4 years - and that's IF they make their next projected target of racing @late 2027 Also no mention of how long the track will be out of the commission for horses to work on. It's been the worst kept secret that this has been on the cards for months now - that further major work is required - I guess it's taken that long for NZTR Corporate Communications to craft that crock of .... "think positively" you say CS - clearly you have no skin in this CD racing game.. -

Goodness me! I take it Robbie doesn't currently - and never intends - to engage Leah on any of his. That was unnecessarily rude especially given it was live on Trackside. J.

By not paying income tax or betting duty like the Oz opposition and crypto outfits have to. Accepting government/taxpayer bailouts to stay afloat. Having special taxpayer funds available to fund specified infrastructure expenditure. You can't be that blind to see how much NZRacing is blessed by the taxpayer. Forbes has that completely backwards about who the freeloaders are.
