    • i just watched a bit of the box seat and at one point greg o'connor was asked about turnovers. he said  to a question about turnovers for the most recent weeks- "turnovers are looking really strong.Turnovers are $600,000 ahead on the  equivalent last year,particularly derby night" so when he says  turnovers are $600,000 ahead on the equivalent to last year. is it as good as he makes out. The previous year,in the 3 weeks after show day the club had 2 friday and 1 low key, 8 race wednesday meeting.(29 races in total) This year they had racing every friday night,in other words  3 friday meetings.(32 races in total) so is he giving figures comparing the turnovers from those 3 meetings,i guess thats what he meant. but if he is,which it sounded like,then hasn't he created a misleading perception,as there were 3 more races run this year, low key wednesday meetings don't generate the turnover of a friday night normally and we also know they pay higher stakes on a friday than they would have for the wednesday meeting last year. again,isn't it another statement where the context is lacking. maybe he had context but simply chose not to go into detail for some reason. there needs to be more detail befoe people can be convinced they aren't being given spin.I don't think mr o'connor is into deliberately giving spin,but he didn't appear to compare apples with apples.
