Any NZ trainers put anything on YouTube? Waller and Baker do in Oz every week. Can be interesting. Be more useful reading tea leaves than reading the stuff Te Akau and Wexford send out. -

I don't think so. How far do you think the funds from the sale of the tracks that could be sold would have gone? And more importantly, what do you think the money would have been spent on? I doubt there would be pristine surfaces and decent safe horse facilities at the remaining courses. Then have a little count up of what is spent in wages at some of these clubs. The sale of one CD racecourse heading for the chopping block would only cover the wages of another club for up to two years. Would the industry be better off ... the answer is a definite no. -

Probably would have been better off. However the flaw in the plan was not enough capital was released to fix the issues. As it is there isn't enough to fund operational costs. As us evident from thw comments of many the industry still runs as an amateur hobby rather than as a self sustaining business. -
Galah, wash your mouth out! Why would anyone want to be gambling on gallops? I have looked at all the harness fields this week, and can not see a single horse that is worth offloading on! Just no value and when you have 5 horses in many races paying less than $2 for top 3, then you are wasting your time. Just a poor state of affairs at the moment with where harness racing is and unfortunately I do not believe the ones making the decisions really understand ? -
Well just imagine the landscape if they had closed those tracks by 24 25 as was the theory.
