These novelty races really are messing with New Zealand racing, particularly with history and tradition. Has anyone tabled a contingency plan for if/when the Entain deal blows apart? I'm only seeing money thrown at some races. What clubs and individuals are coming up with innovations to maintain and bolster field numbers and quality across the board? -

Do you agree Chief? These readings are like our judicial rulings ... inconsistent. -

Australians are definitely a different breed. They like to bet, they start younger, they love a day at the races and they love to dress up. I suppose there are more of them too which makes a crowd, a big one. The trainers and jockeys seem to be more professional, outgoing and articulate. Bruce Sharrock may have the right idea to try to upskill the licence holders and strive for elite groups. We aren't like the Aussies though and New Zealand may remain a licence holder dumping ground for some time to come. To me, the whipping rule goes around and around. As far as too many strikes of a whip is concerned, how hard is it to count? If jockeys cannot abide by the rules put them on the side lines for a length of time that actually has an effect on their behaviour. I feel the fate of the industry lies with the jockeys. The buck must stop with them. The thoroughbred industry must learn from what is happening to the greyhounds. There is little point moaning amongst ourselves. It seems a different opinion is jumped on as something alien. If we don't look at the problems differently we'll be staring at the same result as the dogs. Judging by this site anger management companies could make a killing. -
Brad Steele came from Australia highly qualified apparently? We will have to wait and see if chucking this money around is going to have positive effects in the next few years! Interesting concept from Mr Steele the way he is trying to get under 40s into ownership. -
I wasn't really looking at that for the reason you state, but the quarterly data above shows a significant injury rate increase (p<.05) year on year from sample sizes of 9000+ starters. For those whose minds are boggled by statistics, that means that there is less than 5% chance that the increase in injury rates is due to chance. From the data I have seen, I don't see how you could possibly argue that injury rates haven't worsened in the last two seasons let alone that they have improved.
