Gamma, do appreciate your enthusiasm for all harness racing and your support for NZ racing. Unfortunately I highly doubt there would be anyone or any company that is willing to chuck money into NZ harness to support it, once Entsin pulls the plug ! It is absolutely so hard to understand how HRNZ is acting currently and it will not end well for harness racing in NZ as a consequence! At the end of the day HRNZ are supposed to be acting in the best interests of harness racing so they must be using their expertise to the best of their ability? -
You seem to be saying because we think the small fields dominated by favorites are an unappealing betting product,then somehow that means we find the people and horses who provide that product unappealing. whcih of course is not what we are saying at all. In fact gammalite,what we are saying is we wish there were more of the people and the horses to make the betting product more appealing.. so how your characterising what w'ere saying, isn't a true reflection on what we are saying. your not alone in doing that of course. all auckland supporters do the same. They do it because they can't argue with the fact the betting product is generally quite unappealing,thats obvious. so they try and make it out to be a criticism of the people up there,when its very obviously not. Its actually unfair when people do that,but hey,its all they got to counter the argument. Actually,when you say we pick on auckland,actually i don't know about others ,but i've said several times soutthland is heading in the same direction. And we've all criticised 2 year old races at addington being unappealing. -

It’s not a slight on the talent in the north—just a simple preference for the kind of races that make for a good bet. So nothing personal, and nothing against Barry (legend, by the way). I just like a bit more meat on the bone than a 1.20 winner at Auckland. They can race as much as they like in those 5 and six horse fields but they will not get my money and by the look of the pools on those events not many other people are liking them either. -
I hate tennis. a poor sport where millionaire brats and bratesses whack a ball over the net. Some Russian with a name you can't even pronounce will probably win the ladies at the end. and Some people actually Bet on it . Its not an 'Appealling ' betting product at all. BUT do WE wish them NOT to Have it ? no. We have Beautiful Horses (Of WORLD Class quality) and Fantastic Horsemen (and women) Competing at Auckland each and every week. But they're NOT APPEALLING to you guys . Just an Insult to the fine fine NZ harness racing industry. Barry Purdon near the BEST in the WORLD at his craft , but not appealing for South Islander to bet on . Insulting to the sport you blokes . Lost your money on something probably and just all bitter as chips with vinegar on. 😆 -
i was reading the hrnz website news today. And it got me thinking about what i would like to see. well we all know i think the unhinged content should be on there.But that seems to be a no no for hrnz,for unknown reasons. But i was thinking the hrnz website should have something like what unhinged does and what they should do is take a couple of specific horses and just follow them through there life. They should provide 5 minute monthly updates on what is involved in those horses life. Right form a month prior to when they are foaled,right through to when they retire,how they are cared for by the stud,the breeder,why the stallion was chosen,why this why that as they progress through life,the cosr of this and that,the owners,who they are,why they race them,. It could end up a 10 year segment.The people who handle them when grazing and showcase not only winning efforts but workouts,trials races. Like shots of how the horses react to losing ,competing,etc,etc,mheir horse mates in the paddock,how they react to the weather,etc,etc.Even some loyal punters who bet on it ,win or lose,could get a mention harness racing need to be showing what makes harness racing tick,and its not all about winning. i bet it would slowly get get a huge following . maybe the unhuinged man is who they should commission to do that segment for HRNZ. but to me its something thats lacking when you look at the hrnz website.
