They need to increase revenue and restricting turnover has a detrimental effect. There used to be punters that went on course but now I would suggest there are very few punters on course wagering large amounts since the restrictions were applied. Just makes absolutely no sense to have the NZ TAB applying an AML limit of $1k, as that is such a pathetically low amount in todays money! For the TAB to want to know who is winning $1k is hindering wagering and reducing turnover and profit for them. They seriously have made some poor decisions for the industry but then Entain does not seem to care! -
that is because the House team support Manawatu. he has heaps of starters there ,to 1/ be able to Win races 2/ Get horses to win races for owners that otherwise would not get a win. can't wish them enough winners. I think that Manawatu should have a meeting every week. Doody and Chilcott and Dickson and Abernathy's could all get winners every week then . Just too hard to win at Auckland. those top 10 barns are world class. They're ALL my favourites mate. I am in awe of some of their results over extended periods of time (esp Mark and Barry ) winning the very best like Derbies, Interdominions and Miracle Miles against everyone. But they have tapered off a bit with age , as we were discussing . Natalie is gone too. and Mark relocated and semi retired . The Champ still can come to Queensland and clean us up though . Bought RUBIRA over in the winter and won the QLD Derby here . won 3 out of 4 actually, even with him putting an average driver on. and OscarB ran 3rd in the Interdominion trot final for him. Even while he's near retired he can still show em' how to do it. and the Aussies are VERY hard to beat these days too. Super competitive. amazing results from Stewart and Grimson and McMullen barns too. I've never seen such Grand horses winning. it's almost euphoric . -
Isn't this a case of "no s**t sherlock" ? Every race (KM night) was a world pool race , was that the case last year, i think only 3 or 4 were? -
Seriously needs to happen to make it world class and attractive to punters. -

Flemington trainer Glen Thompson is keen to build up his stable numbers and was pleased to come away with a pair of colts by Sword of State at Tuesday’s Book 2 session of the New Zealand Bloodstock National Yearling Sales. Thompson, who trained in partnership with Mike Moroney until the legendary horseman’s death in February last year, lost several of his higher-rated horses, with Ballymore Stables absorbed by Lindsay Park. But Gr.1 Australasian Oaks (2000m) winner Benagil has been a headline act for Thompson’s small stable alongside Flemington Group Three winner Whisky On The Hill. “The stable is starting to build now. It has taken a little bit of time, but I’ve just had to be patient,” Thompson said. Flemington trainer Glen Thompson. Photo: Angelique Bridson “I’ve got a fair few yearlings and two-year-olds there at the moment, so the next 12 months it should really start to pick up. “I’ve got 18 boxes, 12 in work at the moment, so it’s nice to get a few more. “We have got the good mare Benagil, she has a jump out on Friday and will run in a fortnight at Flemington and we will head towards the Australian Cup (Gr.1, 2000m). “She has come back really well. It’s just a shame she struck that really heavy track last run at Flemington (Gr.1 Champions Stakes, 2000m). I think that really pulled her up.” Thompson went to $150,000 to purchase a Sword of State colt out of the Snippetson mare Palace Whispers from the draft of Woburn Farm. “He’s a good strong colt,” Thompson said. “He’s a pretty hot stallion at the moment. That was what I came here looking for, something a bit earlier. “He definitely looks like he should be up and going early, but I guess time will tell. “I couldn’t get near them in Book 1, so it was good to be able to get him in the second session.” Thompson said he had found the new format of a two-day Book 1 Sale and one-day Book 2 Sale as a positive, with the 848 horses catalogued across the two sessions all on the Karaka Sales complex at once. “It’s been good. You get to see them all and compare them close together. It’s been a good couple of days,” he said. “There are still definitely shares available, but there would be a good chunk of him sold already.” Thompson also secured a value colt by Sword of State out of Rose’s Girl from the draft of Curraghmore for $30,000.
