Many things we will never know about the Entain contract, until 2028 and beyond. Many things we will also never know, about what the other 2 contenders for outsourcing were offering. I suspect not as big a carrot as Entain. Many things also again that we will not know about how much say Entain has with TAB NZ, NZTR and HRNZ, in where the money is spent. Considering Entain potentially has a lot to lose, I would say a hell of a lot. Sometimes is does not seem that way with the focus on raising stakes at the expense, in thoroughbred's case, of addressing tracks. -

Why would it be important to me? Well I would have thought that was obvious. I want Harness Racing to firstly survive & hopefully thrive beyond the initial 5 years of guaranteed income from Entain, so it would be comforting to know if there was some level of guaranteed income beyond that period. What a bizarre question. Secondly, many of the financial aspects of the deal with Entain are public eg the addional payment for geo blocking, so why would they not tell interested parties if there was a guaranteed minimum income beyond the 5 years. You suggested there might be such an agreement in place so it is obviously of interest to you. Why wouldn’t it be of interest to others?. -

What Ballarat Races Where Ballarat Turf Club – 72 Midas Rd, Miners Rest VIC 3352 When Thursday, August 7, 2025 First Race 1pm AEST Visit Dabble Ballarat’s synthetic course hosts an eight-race Thursday card with fair conditions typical of the surface. The opener jumps at 1:00pm AEST and the closer is at 4:30pm. Expect on-speed runners to be advantaged early over the short trips, while strong, momentum-building types tend to excel from the 1400m to 2100m. Monitor any pattern shift through R1–R3, but Ballarat’s synthetic usually rewards maps more than barriers. Best Bet at Ballarat: Delivering Delivering is airborne and gets another ideal synthetic set-up in the 1500m BM70. His last three runs read like a proper poly specialist’s profile, and with the 3kg claim he tumbles to a light impost from barrier one. That should let Zoe Waller control the race either in front or box-seating behind a modest tempo, which is gold at Ballarat when leaders lift from the 600m. He owns the best last-600m ratings in this field, handles the trip, and maps to save every inch of ground before sprinting off the bend. If Delivering begins cleanly, he’s the one they all have to catch. Best Bet Race 5 – #1 Delivering (1) 5yo Gelding | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Ms Zoe Waller (a3) (61.5kg) Next Best at Ballarat: Podargoni Podargoni keeps improving and can measure up quickly in BM70 grade at 1200m. The Hayes camp has placed him smartly and his pattern—jump, land handy, build from the 500m—fits the Ballarat all-weather perfectly. From barrier six, Harry Coffey can park just off the lead pair and control the race in clean air, avoiding kickback. His recent win showed a strong change-up speed and he was doing his best work late, suggesting the step into tougher company won’t blunt his finish. With a pragmatic ride and a race lacking deep closers, Podargoni profiles to stalk and pounce at the 200m. Next Best Race 7 – #5 Podargoni (6) 3yo Gelding | T: Ben, Will & JD Hayes | J: Harry Coffey (58kg) Next Best Again at Ballarat: Costalotta Costalotta did enough first-up when chasing hard into second at Ballarat and looks primed to go one better over 1400m. She draws out a touch but that can be a positive here: Declan Bates can slide across, find the moving line and avoid traffic before the bend. Second-up improvement is on the cards, and her action suggests the poly is no issue. With a few debutants and lightly raced rivals likely to be finding their feet late, race fitness becomes a key edge. If she lands in the first four turning, Costalotta’s sustained last-400m should make her hard to hold out. Next Best Again Race 1 – #5 Costalotta (7) 3yo Filly | T: Archie Alexander | J: Declan Bates (56kg) Thursday quaddie tips for Ballarat Synthetic Ballarat quadrella selections Thursday, July 7, 2025 1-2-3 2-3-5 4-5 1-4-7 Horse racing tips View the full article -

Why would you be told the commercial arrangements of a private corporation? For that matter why is it important to you? -
By Withadream2 · Posted
I certainly hope so Chief but if that was the case I would have thought we would know about it by now. I have my doubts but I hope I’m wrong.
