Science is pretty much absolute Gamma (LB), and that which isn't is always under review by the scientific community. You can pretty much guarantee, if you jump off the Sky Tower, what your velocity will be when you hit the concrete, based on the conversion of potential into kinetic energy, and why every organ and bone in your body will be obliterated as that energy is dissipated as you go from that velocity to zero in the space of a milli second. Sorry, about as morbid as some of Becks Nairn's dissection pics -
Steven B has talked about for any such work to be taken seriously, it needs to be peer reviewed. This is not just the scientific voracity of the work itself but the author This may involve such things as Who funds the authors' work. What motives the author may have for producing the work What other work has the author published What links does the author have to other people and organisations

I came across some NZ consumer market research 10-15 years ago, I wish I could find it again, but it does emphasize your point. In a nutshell it said that they did not bet because they had the perception they were at a disadvantage compared to people in the industry. The only positive to come out, was that a day at the races was perceived very well. The closest parallel to that is I guess, insider trading on the stock market As an example of what Racing were up against. With Lotto, a certain percentage of every dollar spent by the public was automatically deducted to go into a marketing fund. This allowed for major advertising on mainstream media that built the 'brand' Lotto to the extent it has become a major part of the NZ psyche. NZ Racing tried to copy it with Triple Trio, but it was a rank failure

The 1% Club, a new fundraising initiative designed to unite consignors, breeders, and buyers in support of Racing Welfare, was launched on Wednesday. Through the scheme, consignors and breeders are invited to nominate one yearling from their draft at the upcoming Tattersalls October Yearling Sales, pledging 1% of its sale price to Racing Welfare. Participating horses will be highlighted in sales catalogues, signalling to buyers and the wider industry their valuable contribution to the welfare of racing's people. Chasemore Farm has nominated lot 1827, a bay filly by Pinatubo out of Parsnip (Zebedee), who will sell on Friday, October 17. Newsells Park Stud is also supporting the new initiative and they have nominated lot 608, a son of Palace Pier. Hillwood Stud has put forward lot 1599, a colt by A'Ali, as their nominee. To find out more about the 1% Club or join, please visit the Racing Welfare website. Dawn Goodfellow, chief executive of Racing Welfare, said: “Racing Welfare exists to care for the people who care for racing. As a charity which receives no government funding, we need to raise £3m each year to provide our vital support services to the people who keep British horseracing and Thoroughbred breeding running – 24/7, 365 days a year. We can only do this thanks to the generosity of our donors and the 1% Club is a simple yet powerful way of enabling people to show their support. A small pledge from individuals can have a transformational impact when combined and we are hugely grateful to those who have already shown their support and signed up.” The post Racing Welfare Launches 1% Club Ahead Of Tattersalls October appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
