One of the suggestions to take over from Bruce Sharrock from some quarters. -

I suppose each vendor is different but, you'd think once they'd breezed up the trainer/preparer would back off with work on a walker to keep them eating, interested and muscled for the sale ring. -

i see on the other channel they have someone giving a breakdown of stakes paid/turnover/funding. thats always been interesting to read and of course is relevant and that person is saying tonights manawatu races will most likely run at a loss. well thats all true and good. But Manawatu seems to be an easy target and is cherry picked while giving other areas of the industry a free pass. to me there is a double standards being applied by many. (not referring to brodie there,even though he did start this topic, as hes pretty consistent). but to give an example of what i mean by double standards. where's the analysis of the data,for what must surely be the most uneconomic,special interest/ preferential treatment driven sector of the industry, stakes /returns for 2 year old racing. come on,for the first 8 months of the year we had 2 year old races with mostly 5 or 6 starters running for stakes in excess of other graded races with another $12,000 industry funded bonuses on top of that, paid out.Whats the data for the first 8 months time frame? Like i said earlier,manawatu needs to be compared with other areas returns whether it be geographical or whether it be to 2 year old racing. i agree with those that highlight the importance of financially underperforming areas of the industry.On the face of it,those on social media sites like this, seem far more willing to discuss the significance and the consequences thereof. personally i believe there are workable,province specific business models which could ensure each areas continued participation.I ,along with others have discussed that before. But the way i see it is this. Industry leaders are just dumb. simple as that.Just not very clever. The best example of that was the way they treated the horse utilisation report that many people from different areas of the industry poured time and energy into providing possible solutions/improvements to industry problems. I thought it was full of common sense and from people in touch with reality. But,seemingly because of that,HRNZ have not enacted most of the report. You know i was talking to someone nopt that long ago. He was telling me he was talking to someone in power and the topic of the handicapping rating system came up. He was told by this person that if he wasn't happy with it,to sell his horse to australia. Basically give the game away. I was also told about another part of this persons conversation,which i laughed at because i thought he wasn't being serious,as it seemed such a dumb thing to say. But when i laughed the bloke i was talking to me said,i'm telling you,this is what was said.
