    • It's a big cope for you @Chief Stipe ,if you need to talk to someone about it Im here !or you.
    • Gamma, can not agree with you on several points you have made! Do not believe that NZ has great people running the racing in NZ! They may be nice people but many of them have not the business or financial success or sense that we require at the moment. Many of the decisions that have been made have in my humble opinion been very poor, and the industry is going to suffer big time in the next year or two. Several of the posters on BOAY do have the harness racing industry best interests at heart, whereas it appears the ones being paid are only there to collect salaries. Many examples of this that I have pointed out in the past, and there is quite a list which have been poor and detrimental to racing infustry. Australia is a much larger country obviously than NZ, and I do not believe we have anyone  or business that will be able to sustain making large payments to make racing sustainable in the future. Havent heard anything from the committee that Winstone tried to form to brainstorm to help racing? Sorry Gamma, but like so many others in NZ, we have no confidence in the ones making the vital decisions currently. They actually need people who have run successful businesses in the past, as we just havent had that for a long time if at all? Mates getting the jobs without a proven track record just does not work nowadays, despite what they like to do. Brodie just telling it the way it appears!    
    • Fresh off watching Ka Ying Rising turn in his “best performance” at Sha Tin on Sunday, David Hayes now turns his attention to Happy Valley on Wednesday night and continuing to close the gap on Mark Newnham in the trainers’ championship. His superstar posted his second-fastest time when cruising to his 15th consecutive victory in the Group Two BOCHK Private Banking Jockey Club Sprint (1,200m), with stablemate Tomodachi Kokoroe finishing seventh. It was a performance that even left his trainer...View the full article
    • Not as bad as what you think all the time Brodster.  NZ harness is near Best in the world. Because you have Great people running it and participating in it.  Better to put money up for the participants by a betting company ? , than Not put any up lol. 🤣😂  5 years or 20 years , some is better than none 😁 They make millions from the betting mate. NZ harness just a small pimple on their radar. Aus harness even less of a problem for them , so they use their Sub branch of LADBROKES to support the Aussie harness . all year. every year. Don't worry if they cut funding . It'll stop the Aussie 's coming and taking most of it 😂, and your 'Bush' racing for average money will just continue on as if nothing as happened. Most Clubs have SPONSORS Brodster. They'll get the chance to chip in and support the industry again . Feed companies like the amazing QLD Garrards Horse and Hound already sponsor NZ for many hundreds of thousands annually.  PRYDE Feeds sponsor the Big Victoria racing nights , and all the Group 1's. Vic still makes a loss annually because betting is a lot less these days , and not as prevalent as it once was.  It's not just betting agencies that will keep you going . It's ALL THOSE OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES AS WELL. The Studs (farms) and their Millionaires proprietors sponsor PLENTY already. Plenty of Sires Stakes racing. Has happened for years . Long before Entain came along. TAB didn't run the show . HRNZ do. get with the program.  
    • You don't win unless you are in.  I'm just waiting to hear what @Huey has invested in.
