Exactly mikey. The SRC is a racing club where the core business is racing. How many other clubs have 100 marquees/tents pre-sold for a race meeting? To me the $750K, even though like Sean said was originally a huge risk, is a real investment into their event. The fact that their profit of $120K goes into stakes speaks volumes, and is exactly what NZTR has asked of clubs for a long time now. How does anyone know that none of that profit, or money gained by other means, doesn't go into track maintenance? A balance sheet is not the whole story either. There are many factors making up a club's existence. It is easy to make assumptions from what you see from the outside. I can relate such perceptions of the most successful jumpouts in the country. Yes, other entities would like a share of the profits. The overheads to run any successful event are usually substantially more expensive than most would envisage. You have to speculate to accumulate. Congratulations Southland. What an example to other clubs! -

Interestingly only 1 horse in at Taupo today, whereas they usually take a full complement to Taupo, so What You Wish For in the Taupo Cup probably worth a bet at reasonable money Let's hope no more tomos appear in the track -
yes,if you slow down and stop the video prior to and as the tape was released,the horses weight was clearly on the back foot,but it was the releasing of the tape that triggered the backward movement from the horse. Similar to what we saw with evangilist who reared at westport. The concern about the hobbs decision is it indicated the stipes in charge were influenced by the fact the horse was the hot favorite and driven by nz's leading driver. They should not in anyway be factors that influence the stipes in determining whether a horse is late scratched or not,because if they are,you get inconsistency in stipes decisions which leads to discontent amongst punters and licence holders who are treated differently,depending on who they are or what horse they drive. sure,hobbs backing away straight after the tapes went wasn't a good look,but everyone should have the rules applied in the same way and preferential treatment should never occur. That should be the aim in an ideal and fair world.
