Have you heard of optimism bias TAB? -

This day qualifies as bigger and better than any previous raceday in NZ ....no need to try and devalue it ! I believe it is the first NZ Thoroughbred Slot race.......I attended the others in Harness. The stake money is unprecedented in NZ....a record ! The day includes 4 x Group 1 races ......a first ! The Derby and Auckland Cup on same day.......a first ! As for talking the wagering on ONE day or one race, this is a new tactic employed by negaholics trying to score points for ....god knows why ! Racing fans are being offered many new experiences at the moment , increased stakes at all levels and unprecedented opportunities for their horses no matter what their ability. Get on the train if you choose ! -

Well , to me in the 'glass half full society' this is New Zealand and not bloody Australia....this is bigger and better than any raceday in NZ.And likely to trigger plenty of Australian interest as well ! Sorry Doomed ,you shouldn't be counting Australian racing .....and certainly not HARNESS slot races. Get serious champ ! -

Fair point Mikeynz....where have you been ? Did you venture out to any southern meetings......a few close to your district....Roxburgh , Gore etc The thing about Auckland wanting a cricket ground ......its for Test cricket plus any International one-dayer that would attract a huge crowd . Eden park is NOT considered a cricket ground cos of its shape...the boundaries overall are too short ,edges go for 6 ! FYI Auckland is very short of Sports facilities ,especially Indoor ones. PLUS there seems to be 2 x types of people in NZ , those who live in Auckland and those who wish they lived in Auckland ! Having lived most my life in the South Island I see/hear the difference. Southerners despise Auckland while Jaffas barely know the South exists , but feel no bitterness at sending billions South for things such as Chch Earthquake ! Often the South don't know what they have till its gone.....they did it with Thoroughbreds and Jumps races luckily held on to Harness in Canterbury and Southland [ some thanks to Jaffa Tim Shadbolt ].I see Chch couldn't hold on to the Sailing GP ,about to start in Auckland. -
GRNZ told Govt that they had confidence in the integrity of their database & the status of all the dogs within it. I don't have confidence in it (nor should the Govt), as their database has a 34-year-old dog that appears to still be registered to race.
