Totally agree…. but just watch, the Aus greyhound betting will not go ahead in NZ once racing stops here. Will be pressure on bigtime, and rightly so, one could say that Aus dog racing is run worse than NZ…. In fact, the only 2 dogs really looked after in Aus was Coco and Son Of Coco…Darryl Kerrigan and family even took them on holiday to Bonnie Doon…😁 A great movie… interestingly its been reported that Michael Caton was only paid $3000 for his lead role…. i would have told him ya dreamin…. -
it will shrink considerably in the north island. thats due to hrnz ,atc and cambridge not having any forward thinking and everyone up there just putting self interest over the overall industries interest. canterbury and southland are doing the same,just not to the same level. .In other words,let those currently involved who are mostly older, lead out their lives for the next few years confortatbly and give nothing more than lip service when expressing concern about those around in 10-15 years time. hey i get thats just a human thing,but there will come a time when people will look back and say,yeah,we should have done things differently. the industry is shrinking significantly in canterbury and southland. It already has and is continuing to. People just have to open their eyes and its obvious. The rate of its decline is quite amazing when you compare things to what they were,even as little as 20 years ago. -
the courage reactor race that you mention wilson house came from the back to win. They only ran their last 400 in 30.1,because the horse in front was driven beyond its abilities so was always going to stop. short distance racing does provide a significant advantage to horses drawn in and who can race on the speed.Moreso than those run over 2400. more punters prefer long distance racing,but as you say,what the ounters want is not the priority.Hrnz have prioritised is getting horses to have more starts so as to keep field sizes up,.but the irony is hrnz is doing that while doing the opposite in the areas i mentioned earlier. at the end of the day,i think while the distance of races is of importance,its just another symptom of a declining industry which has many other issues it is not addressing which will impact it far more.

Will be smaller soon once Dog racing finishes.

Not sure limit now, as Addington dont race much over a mile anymore, but i am pretty sure limit was 10? Is that correct? I too would like to see less runners in racing at certain tracks from a betting view.
