    • So as an owner why can't I expect a fair price for my product?
    • Don't be so sensitive my comment wasn't directed at you but all those moaning about ENTAIN in general.   Retailers often discount and they have loss leaders amongst their product range e.g. Costco with that beautiful Westland butter WestGold. BUT from what I see wagering agencies free-load off the generosity of owners who provide the product at a considerable discount. As evident from the comments of many punters online they don't give a rats arse about where or what they spend their money on as long as they get a perceived discount.  The reality is most discounts you do get aren't really discounts but that's another subject. But you have no real idea what is happening with their customer base.  From what information I've seen it is increasing. As for turnover the key figure isn't turnover but net revenue.   The issue is trying to get a fair return for the product hence the attempts to create the monopoly or rather stop leakage and get a return on the locally made product.  Don't forget when NZ racing was supposedly at its best it did have a complete monopoly.
    • Derek Leung Ka-chun and an excited group of owners are dreaming of international Group One glory when they team up with top sprinter Lucky Sweynesse in Sunday’s Sprinters Stakes (1,200m) at Nakayama Racecourse. Leung, 37, is confident Lucky Sweynesse can deliver him a first overseas success at the elite level while the four-time Group One winner’s owners – the Cheng family – will fulfil a dream 17 years in the making on Sunday. Leung has ridden 499 winners in Hong Kong – including two at Group...View the full article
    • Not exactly. They certainly provide it at a large financial loss for a shot at whatever prize money the customers (punters) provide and whatever other benefits they consider they gain from their participation.
    • So do you think retailers just discount for the hell of it? Hardly, they do it to compete with competition.  No doubt your remark regarding free bets was pointed at me, of course free bets or match deposits work, do your homework and look at every Aus operator, they need to compete.    TAB used to do more…. but of course now between them and Betcha, they have a monopoly…. but they are losing customers and turnover…. desperate times which is now why they are offering special odds for those betting on machines🤣🤣. …. that tells you that they have no idea to increase turnover with on line punters….
