that question implies you think that is relevant in a certain way. well,yes i believe its relevant,but not in the way you imply. ask yourself this who's opinion should one listen to and value.. A)someone who understands how the industry works and is run ,who has no self interest at stake and who promotes what they belive is best for the overall industries health. or B)someone who understands how the industry works and is run,but who promotes policies that benefit their own self interests or the self interests of groups they decide to prioritise over the overall industries well being. clealy the answer is a no brainer. Its A. so the point is,the having skin in the game argument is just a deflection. -
Would make more sense for Auckland to move it's Cup to a couple of weeks before or after slots race to try and attract Aussie runners, maybe a bonus if one can win both, maybe simply best performer bonus, Auckland Cup on new years eve is dead now, only Republican Party went from the south,,rest went to Oamakau, Auckland shot themselves in the foot on this one. -

brodie,as far as trainers saying how well things are going. Its people preferring to live in the present and judging things on how they,themselves are currently being impacted by how hrnz is currently running things. For example,if they are trying to get owners interested in yearlings they may have recently purchased at the sales,being a good saleman and highlighting the positive aspects of what your selling,is necessary,so they focus on the current high stakes a a positive and chose to ignore all the other indicators of the industries health. Another factor is these high end,high profile trainers are dealing each day with a lot of stresses and worries that come with running bigger stables. So theres a degree of,i've got enough stresses running my stable as it is,i don't need to overcomplicate things further by taking on board the stresses of having to think about things outside their wheelhouse. and even if they did take a look around them and conclude current hrnz leadership is squandering a once in a lifetime chance to ensure the future of the sport,well if they were to express those views publically, that would get them offside with the prople running the industry,the very same people who are currently prioritsing the self interests of the high end people,of which they are one. So in effect,these high end trainers are never going to advaocate for policies that will impact them and their client base. Its just the way human nature works. After all,its a cut throat world and people have to fight for whats best for themselves,so thats also part of why the high end trainers and owners are happy to take a head in the sand approach. so really its just self interest driving how some people who appear to ignoring reality.Its people with a stake in the game playing their cards to their own benefit.Its just the way the world and people work.Its understandable,its not because they aren't smart,but at the end these people who are supposed to be smart a playing a game that may see them negatively impacted most long term.And thats not that smart. But life really is never black and white,its always shades of grey and the nz harness industry is no different.
