So? It is having an influence. Are you suggesting that the NZ BASED Stallions are not having an impact? You really don't get the basic concepts of horse breeding do you? There is only so much inbreeding one can do. BTW the most influential stallion in NZ over the last 45 years was Irish bred. His sire sons (many bred in NZ) are still influencing the breed both here and in OZ. -

Well at least ENTAIN are telling the local industry that they need to get their shyte together and provide a quality product. With the prior ownership model their didn't appear to be any push back at all. -

What list every Club? What part of ALL don't you understand? Certainly if you are an example of past committees racing was NEVER in good hands! Fill ya boots: https://is-register.companiesoffice.govt.nz/search/ -
Your beloved 2yo racing is a prime example. Of the 2025 racing season 9 of 17 stakes races were won by Aus Sires. 2024 10 of the 17. Thats only a snapshot. Pretty clear to see the influence the Aus breed is having here. -
exactly . that's society in general. It panders to the rich. Horse racing is dominated by Millionaires like a Lot of other sports. You know this. My thinking is not flawed . It's the reality. Harness racing is great because it does Put on a PRODUCT that ALL can have a go at if they're good enough. UNFORTUNATELY with the Depth of Talent in Trainers and Drivers in Australian and New Zealand Harness racing ( the best in the world) the small guy is NOT going to get any of the Big money off these blokes. The NZ Cup Trifecta of Luke McCarthy , and Grant Dixon , and Barry Purdon have been doing this stuff since the day they were Born almost. They are best on the planet. (same for Pete McMullen winning the trots, the Butts, Dunns , Dalgety'sand Jones . The Small guy will NEVER beat them. So you support these guys (that are the best in the world. ) By Putting races on for them , and Sires Stakes to support the breeders. Who breed the horses the Owners of these stables buy . (nearly All millionaire owners because that's the way it is and they get a foot in the door with their money. Every ALLstar's owner for example. It's so obvious HRNZ MUST support these guys by having rich races for them to put the best in the land in. We're running a Group race this Saturday night at Albion Park . Only the Best will be in it. (horse , driver, and trainer) The rest of the everyday folk will just paddles around Redcliffe, Oamaru, Mildura Gore and that with little attention and little prizemoney. always been the way. I used to race Rocklea against Grant Dixon and the Rasmussens every Saturday afternoon. we raced for $500 mate. it's just a hobby bit of fun for the small bloke. People that get their horses running SUB 1.55. well that takes skill . And they deserve the Money . And they get it. So my Thinking is not flawed . It's WHAT is ACTUALLY Happening in Aus and NZ. you are the One Criticising it and dreaming of the 'Level Playing field for All'. Mate, the 2 year old Sires Stakes and Jewels racing indeed gives the 'Battler a Even Chance ' to get some. Say JUMAL for Reid and next tier level driver winning a few is an example. excellent program. been going years. BUT you hate the 2 year olds getting Big money too, so with your flawed thinking , it's just Problem after problem lol. I think you've lost a grip on why and What actually happens so just blame people doing their Jobs ? ( the HRNZ and Entain) 🤭 I do appreciate you have an excellent grasp on driving tactics and , race outcomes and stewards etc though 😉🏆
