    • Yes thats how they used to do it but the UK style of risk management that has slowly crept in over the years is slash anyone that looks like they can beat you. One of my mates who just shifted to Australia this year opened an account with Ladbrokes when he got over there and not long after put 50EW on a horse at New Plymouth he got told to back. It won and paid $18 and the day after he took his money out he just got an email saying they were closing his account. Thing is he a hopeless punter and would have given that back 10 fold if they let him keep going. He was just unlucky he got lucky just after opening his account. Or his mistake was taking the money out not sure what was the trigger for the account closure. I believe it has the opposite effect they are going for and has dramatically reduced turnover to the point they are now offering every tom dick and harry bonus bets to entice them to spend up. That is a spiraling downward trend over time. Because most punters have a good collect every now and then but if you keep restricting anyone who has  good collect you end up restricting everyone. Pretty sure that will happen here sooner than later. Blanket restrictions and bans.

    • Would be interesting to gauge how much they like horses if they stop being a cash cow, there has been a small number winning all the races for young ones making a fast buck at the expense of the rest of the toilers.
    • Gamma, HRNZ are just not bring financially prudent with the cash splash from Entain! not trying to be personal but the ones that are offloading the extra money just would not be acting this way with their own personal budget! Making hay while the sun shines is not the way to go! Farmers that have a good season do not go out and blow the cash on things that do not produce in the future! They put it away for the bad seasons! Anyway if they want to carry on the way they are currently and the harness participants are happy for this then I suggest that many will be looking for another job or career in the future! Most meetings are losing money and yet they think that they can pay out the big stskes and bonuses? Delusional!
