    • Wouldn’t be able to bring in any tax on racing or sports until the end of the partnership.
    • did a lot of laps there. Magnificent place was old ParKlands.  reclaimed by the State government to build Athletes village for the 2018 Commonwealth games . 2 weeks of sports that killed off decades of the traditional Gold Coast trotting. a real tragedy really. think students rent the accomadation now while attending a nearby campus.  It may of well been if you say so, but the televised events and Group racing is the PRIDE of the Sport. I appreciate that you and Brodie like some here at BOAY like the traditional stuff and see it's importance. that's very good. But as you say the focus is on those that pour the money into the sport. I mentioned a few names above. these guys will keep it going . Not owner trainers. We have the owner trainers and Very small team trainers with very slow horses racing at this VERY minute at Redcliffe. The SPORT would/could survive without them Mr Galah. BUT > We are lucky to have Entain /Ladbrokes that still put on this cheap 'Bush' racing for the hobby enthusiasts at Redcliffe and Marburg , that get nothing  when they go to town. no horses fast enough. They're ALL with the Millionaire Owners and Trainers as is Exactly the case in New Zealand.   You could just have city centre racing for the Rich and the classy? . (best owners, horses, trainers and drivers)  If we didn't put on these 'Grass roots racing ' and it stopped . no one would barely notice as far as Punters go. You guys have been calling for Cambridge to stop .you're probably right and It probably will at some stage. like Hutt Park and Forbury with the changing times.  I've seen Manawatu bagged relentlessly as well . you guys are the sports enthusiasts and still don't like it ? lol. sound like thoroughbred blokes half the time that always talk like that too.  you are so lucky HRNZ doesn't close it and keep the few going , by offering some races and prizemoney still. for your grass roots participants. and they run great Sires and Group racing all year round. bloody great stuff really ☺️ but you still say they (HRNZ)  allocate All wrong the funding for owners and races  ? . No they Don''t is my answer. I've listed Plenty of reasons listed on this thread.   
    • LOTTO as well?  Will they also tax winnings?
    • Uh?  You are the one that is coming up with spurious statistics to support your negative hypothesis that the NZ Thoroughbred Breeding industry is stuffed.   None of us have a clue what you are trying to achieve with your obsession.
    • I already have.  I said NONE.  As in Zip, Nada, ZERO!  You really are quite thick aren't you.
