i agree with everything you have said brodie. what we have in common with gamma is everything we say is coming from the perspective of what is the best path forward for the sport to remain strong,in both the south island and the north island.thats something i thought we all should be able to agree on,but not everyone recognises that.. we often have posted about hrnz poorly prioritising the spending of the entain windfall and because of that poor prioritisation,it will limit hrnz abilty to invest in future projects for the betterment of the industry. gamma mentions that he agrees with the ideas i put forward for a training establishment in canterbury.And of course both gamma and i have spoken about our ideas for something similar for upper north island participants. but instead for expressing the view that hrnz spending a few million more on races won by rich aussie owners,instead of investing in a training establishment in canterbury,is viewed as being negtive towards the industry.. the aussie horses winning all the big stake nz races,all owned by mega,mega rich people who are in the sport as much for the prestige and the love of the sport as they are for the money.Those very same people are happy seeing their horses running in the victorian races worth 30% of the stake money,as is the likes of republican party happy to travel there for such races. we all know stakes will end up in the bank accounts of the mega rich owners. as ned kelly said,such is life. -

Vale Martin Christopher Dennis, passed away Feb 12th, in his 82 year. Speaking as a Photographer. Now when it comes to having your photo taken on any given race day, then none of the "D Brothers' are that keen to have their photos taken! Martin especially so! This photos was taken in 2015 after The Bishop had won the Invercargill Gold Cup. Ever the student of breeding! Always studying 'what was being the breeding of that winner!' Known to be ever supportive of any fellow breeder! Sharing insights into what cross might be a nice match for their mare. A life well lived. Condolences to the Family. (with thanks to Chris in composing this post) How would you like to be able to bred a mare like this?? The regally breed THE PRINCIE ONE by Savabeel out of The Diamond One, seen here returning to scale from winner at @Wingatui on Feb 7th. -
Gamma, you ar3 a great contributor on here and positive about harness here in NZ even if it is illfoundered lol The problem is that I do not believe that the funding HRNZ have received has been well spent at all! What I have realised in more recent years is that not enough people are prepared to speak up and express their opinion! This seems rampant with harness racing as they are all worried about losing their jobs if they speak up against the officialdom ! There just is not enough new participants that being owners, trsiner or punters coming thru to ensure the industry to flourish! The bigger owners and trainers are all aging obviously and wont be replaced! There is no way that the Government will bail out harness racing or do we have anyone like Kevin Seymour that has enough money to subsidise racing here! -
