I think we need to separate excitement from reality here. Celebrating the headline nights while ignoring grassroots pressure, shrinking depth in some regions, and long term participation challenges is short sighted. The conversation shouldn’t be “isn’t this amazing?” It should be “is this sustainable?” Enjoy the good racing, absolutely. But let’s not pretend everything is bulletproof just because the top end looks shiny. When an industry becomes heavily reliant on one commercial partner, that’s not dominance, that’s dependency. If priorities shift, what then? -
Absolutely Brodster. You are on the money having respect for Entain for a change. And yes Changes happen , and the function changes bit by bit as improvements made all the time. HRNZ and harness racing participants can rejoice that Entain stepped in (when they didn't have to as is a poor betting product ) but wanted to help out . As their Subsidary LADBROKES has in queesland saving the day for us too . and allowing us to produce great horses like Leap To Fame and GUS that have been crushing it in NZ lately. As The Galah has told you ENTAIN/Ladbrokes make their most money from SPORTS Betting. and a bit on thoroughbreds , esp places like the crazy rich Asians on the Hong Kong races and things like that. Chief has told you how many Billions ENTAIN have. they even have 100,000,000 set aside Chief has told me, to Pay their Money laundering fine if it comes to that out of the courts. Water off a ducks back. Their Contributuion is being lapped up by the NZ harness racing world (and QLD too via Ladbrokes) to have some of the best racing ever seen , by some of the fastest horses ever to wear a bridle, by the BEST Trainers on the Planet. North Island NOT STUFFED yet old sport. hang tuff mate. Barry still winning races after all these decades and been one of the best in the world , along with brother Mark and brother-in -law Tony. Clearly the best around lol 👍🏆😉 Rejoice and be grateful we can still see the marvelous horsemen go round , and try and match the Aussies . How good is NZ harness going? Fabulous . Cambridge on soon .. TAB trot and The race by BETCHA . how good ?? wait to you see the next Queenslander Brodster. Named THE JANITOR. he is gunna Blow your socks off old boy. 💪💰🏆😁 NZ harness never been better. The last 2 Cup weeks have been staggeringly good at Addington . with the Velocity and The Ascent. You got to see Leap To Fame and Keayang Zahara. 2 of the best ever. How Privaliged are we lately ?? just amazing what HRNZ are doing . What amazing people to put this entertainment on. -
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 prioritises the interests of certain groups within the industry . 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. -

Greenwich Village (Quality Road) with Juan Hernandez aboard timed things just right to get his head down at the wire in a tight finish in Sunday's Pasadena Stakes at Santa Anita. Sent off the 8-5 choice after a first-time turf score in the 6 1/2 furlong Baffle Stakes at this venue on Jan. 25, the bay exited post 2 in good order and soon set up camp in a ground-saving fourth as Medici (Into Mischief) led Brigante (More Than Ready) and Army Man (Battalion Runner) through an opening quarter in :22.82. Still content to survey the 7-1 leader through a half in :46.38, Greenwich Village was asked for more and responded as he swung out four to five paths wide turning for home. Taking dead aim at the game pacesetter down the lane, Greenwich Village closed with every stride and put his head down just in time to edge Medici with a fast-closing Iriseach (Ubettabelieveit {Ire}) grabbing third. A debut winner in a 6 1/2-furlong test at Los Alamitos on Dec. 6, the Bob Baffert trainee showed good early speed but wilted to finish fifth–beaten 15 lengths by winner So Happy (Runhappy)–in the GII San Vicente Stakes over seven panels on Jan. 10. Greenwich Village, the third foal out of a multiple group winning mare in Australia, Houtzen (Aus) (I Am Invincible {Aus}), has a juvenile brother by Charlatan and a yearling brother by Not This Time.
