    • 12% growth in NGR disappointing?  You're a hard marker.  I know plenty of businesses who'd love to have that in today's economic climate. We'll see in 12 months.   Bonus offers are a cost or at best a discount offered to customers.  Either way they narrow the profit margin.  You can't buy customers forever. But importantly wagering turnover was down in OZ but ENTAIN did better than most.  You'll see all providers pulling back on incentives.  Time to get your big boy pants on and stop relying on freebies to turn a profit or have less losses.
    • They deserve a life but without racing they would have never experienced one. Greenies will give it traction and with Greyhounds getting banned they will use that to support it. 
    • What do you call tight class racing ? are any Friday night Races to your liking ? I always review all the races to see who's winning, how were they driven, who was punted on , etc each Sat morn. I think Mr Stockman is a Millionaire so has his big punts on any of the Telfer runners he feels like at any time, at that helps build a bit of revenue for the betting companies. Not sure with his amount of money , that he cares if he wins or loses the bets as is collecting enough prizemoney each week to pay the way of the Stonewall operation.  Interestingly Barry Purdons 2 runners were very heavily tried at Alexandra Park and both ran 2nd.  Addington had fairly well tried horses winning ok. Race 1/ Rustenburg a good chance from the pole 1st as 2nd fav at $4.40 . $1.60 fav was unplaced. Race 2/ Lily was $2.90 backed into 2.40 and ran 3rd. Race 3/ Emma  $4.40 into 3.00  1st    Race 4/ Caught the Eye $2.00  1st   Race 5/  Buffy  $2.40   1st  Race 6/ Ebony  $1.80  1st     Race 7/  Triple G $4.50 into 3.20  3rd    Race 8/  Tu Tangata $4.80  . who in their right mind would back that? . one win in past 40 starts. none this year. craziness.  Race 9/ Desert Dancer $3.20  into 2.60  4th    race 10/  Black Jack $1.50 throughout  1st. So a pretty good night for supported runners . 50-50 whether they win or lose . Avoid the trots as too many inconsistant runners. Buffy Northstains and Comoron Strike. seriously ? neither had won in at least their last 10 starts so just crazy to back them out of the blue.  If I had to Pick one horse on the night , probably Our Shangri Lana race 7 . after a couple of Addington Winter wins she looked ok. But it ran only 5th. did have a bad draw though. At Alexandra Park the winning odds were 21/ 4/ 2 / 7/ 3/ 5/ 2/ and 6  with good trainers like Ray Green , Telfer, Bernie Hackett winning 2 of the 3 trots so no surprises there.  Mark Purdon a LIVING CERTAINTY in race 7 with Andretti , Had 2 of the 6 runners and the other 4 were No Hope. you could of had your $1000 bet on Andretti , and have a spectacularly good chance of winning . he had beaten Fugitive of Dalgety's at Waikato , so was going to eat these with the Grand Master driving. But if you're going to put $1000 on something , say at Kurow tomorrow , you're as Mad as Alice in Wonderland Hatter. What could you possibly put $1000 on at Kurow , if you could Brodie???. ( if you don't like good Friday Metro horses)  you Have the whole program to choose from . Give us Two runners. (in case one flops 😋) I know you won't answer that Brodster, Because the Answer is NONE of the those sort of horses. some of the horses on the program are lucky to be worth $1000 . 🤣. and then you say $1000 is a small bet as well 😂😆.  funny times . That Kurow Cup from a stand has a runner who won last 3 starts . must be some sort of chance with good driver??
