    • steele also says in that article the number of customers is up 20% and the bet size has increased. If thats the case,they why isn't it shown in the turnover figures. remember the % increase in  harness race meetings held in july this year,was double the % increase in turnover. and in the article he also citng the geo blocking as contributing to the increase. On the contrary,it appears the geo blocking may have seen no betting turnover increase,if you look at the turnover figures Also previously harness racing would have been getting a  % of the turnover of money invested by nz punters with the overseas bookies on nz harness. But that doesn't apply anymore does it.
    • When you think of Todd Pletcher and Mike Repole first-time starters, you're usually looking at a dirt horse with dirt breeding and high expectations for their future. But Pletcher is not a one-trick pony and has branched out and proven of late that he's more than capable with grass horses.  He picked up his tenth turf win at the Saratoga meet Friday when he scored in the eighth race. The mile-and-a-sixteenth maiden was won by Repole homebred Miss Picky (Uncle Mo). It was her second career start after she finished third in her debut. It was an easy win for the 2-year-old filly, who jumped out of the gate, quickly opened up a clear lead down the backstretch and drew well clear of her rivals as Irad Ortiz Jr. guided her across the finish line. “We've been fortunate,” Pletcher said. “Our horses have been running well on the grass and, as you know, there are a lot of turf opportunities here and that's been good to us.” Pletcher said that it was important that Miss Picky had already started. “That was the key, having the experience,” he said. “She broke sharply and was able to control the pace. She's a nice filly and we have high hopes for her. It was good to see her step up today.” The disappointment in the race was the filly She Feels Stunning (American Pharoah). A half-sister to Grade I winner She Feels Pretty (Karakontie {(Jpn}), she finished seventh of 10.

    • Gamma, listening to that clip I don't think Chris Waller is calling the shots.  He was giving his opinion.  Some people will agree and some will disagree.
