    • So if 4% only win, why is it ok for the TAB to restrict the 4% that win??? The TAB acts with very little integrity! They want to ensure that everyone is a loser, and those that can beat them, they try to eliminate them by big restrictions! The TAB with the monopoly it has has been very bad for the wagering industry.
    • Presume they mean consistently or over a lifetime. If so then no chance 4%.
    • See note 4. So, no as I read it. All NZTR funding. NOTES 1. Total turnover is provided by Entain NZ on a per race basis. Turnover through betcha was not available to NZTR for meetings prior to 24 January 2025. Total on-course turnover is all tote and fixed odds racing turnover placed on-course, including geo-located mobile and digital turnover. Total off-course turnover is Total NZ turnover minus Total on-course turnover. 2. Australian Racefields includes Australian TAB turnover and a calculation to estimate other Australian Corporate Bookmaker turnover based on the known current market share of these companies. It does not include turnover placed on NZ Thoroughbred racing through international operators outside of Australasia. 3. Club Noms, Accepts & other charges/payments is the net amount of all nomination and acceptance charges for Group & Listed charged to owners and paid to clubs and for Feature jumps races not charged to owners, minus credits paid to owners for the same races. 4. Total Club, Meeting & Stakes Funding is all NZTR funding paid to clubs, including Minimum Stakes, Group and Listed, Special Interest, Iconic, Heritage, Country Cup, Innovation and Other Race funding, Meeting Type, Venue Category, Racing Compliance, Event Tier funding, Carnival funding, Jumping Support, On-Course commission and payments, including any Digital turnover and any other meeting funding. Club Compliance funding is included but other funding to clubs or venues for infrastructure, Strategic Training Centre funding, HR Support, Business Innovation is not. All efforts have been made to reconcile against total funding paid to clubs but there still may be some small discrepancies between funding recorded and total funding received by clubs. 5. Net Stakes is Stakes Paid minus the net Club Noms & Accepts & other charges/payments received by clubs. 6. Net Stakes to Funding Ratio is Net Stakes Paid as above and divided by Total Club, Meeting & Stakes Funding. Note that club funding and other numbers can be affected by meetings or races not run, abandoned or transferred.

    • Paladin (Gun Runner), the winner of the GII Remsen Stakes at the Big A Dec. 6, will according to his trainer Chad Brown point to the Feb. 14 running of the GII Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds, which is tabbed as a GI Kentucky Derby qualifier offering 50-25-15-10-5 points to the top five finishers. The $1.9-million Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Select Yearling purchase, owned by Mrs. John Magnier, Michael B. Tabor, Derrick Smith, Peter Brant, Brook T. Smith and Summer Wind Equine, broke his maiden on debut in Ozone Park Oct. 17 after a disqualification. The colt then won the Remsen by two lengths. Since then at Brown's Payson Park base Dec. 28, Paladin has worked a half-mile in :50.80 for his conditioner. “He's settled into South Florida nicely and will likely point to the Risen Star,” trainer Chad Brown said. “He's 2-for-2 and he's a very smart horse; an efficient mover and he's obviously got the pedigree and looks. Given his purchase price, he's got all the right tools. It's just a matter of staying healthy and moving forward in his development.” The post Remsen Champ Paladin Will Point To Risen Star In New Orleans appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
