    • In my opinion,theres a major problem with HRNZ leaderships understanding of what will lead harness racing onto the path of future financial stability. I have always understood that history has shown that the most successful businesses are those who exploit existing assets and financial capabilities over trying to explore new income sources.  sort of like saying,if your going to look for growth,stick with whats proven to work and don't go looking in investing in areas that aren't proven.  It should be a basic principle that HRNZ should have when making any decisions. Its just common sense and logical. TAB,this idea you and entain and HRNZ have about nz  harness racing growth being linked to aucklands population base, is like trying to invent the wheel. But to be fair. How about this. Lets see entain produce data in a way that everyone can understand. How about graphs. Graphs which differentiate between the north and south island,but that can be transposed to show the comparisons. Graphs showing things like proposed number of races to be  run,actual races that end up being run. average field sizes,average start per horse,etc. Priofitability of the new meetings,gross betting revenues and margins. In reality,if they really have put any thought into these extra north island meetings,all the predicted estimates and returns should already have been assessed. Then once ita been going for 6 months,put those up on the hrnz website for all to see and judge. Transparency is the key to gaining trust of those whose income relies on the viabilty of decisions being made. Then ,if the decision makers have got it right,then everyone can see well done,but when ,in all likelihood the data will show they got it totally wrong by putting their focus on extra meetings in the north island over the south island,well then everyone can look at the data and say,we demand answers and accountability for poor decisions made.

    • I would have thought that investing in tracks would be more important than investing in more management. Probably cheaper too. All we seem to get is a more flowery report on why our tracks are stuffed.
