I said about quality over quality, an example, 2 nights in the North, 14 races, 3 at least at Cambridge with only 6, would make sense to only have 1 night, probably 11 or 12 races, it is winter at present, maybe go back to 2 meetings a week once the weather heats up and numbers improve trainers only need to travel one day, tv crew only one day,,no one would be worse off. Same in Rugby, quantity over quality, Super Rugby starts in summer, they get to the playoffs and it's played at the coldest time of the year, 16 rounds, if you only had 10 or even 12 rounds you will still get the same result, Rugby is leaking money too,mostly through bloated squads on the payroll plus all the hangers on, why the All Blacks need nearly 40 when touring , mind boggling.

Two months after humbling Romantic Warrior in the Group One Dubai Turf (1,800m), Soul Rush headlines the 75th running of the Group One Yasuda Kinen (1,600m) at Tokyo Racecourse on Sunday, contesting the prestigious contest for the fourth time. Third behind Romantic Warrior in last year’s Yasuda Kinen, Soul Rush has posted two wins, two seconds and a third from his past five races and looks like he is improving with age. The seven-year-old son of Rulership will be ridden by Suguru Hamanaka. The...View the full article -
Albert said something similar Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. -
things are dire mate. The Galah and others have often pointed out the declining numbers racing as a main issue. That to me is the thing we need to address with haste. No Participants = No Sport. I do totally admire that you want to get a Bet on to help out (and line your pockets) great spirit of adventure. The bottom line is you need Participants first, Races 2nd and Revenue 3rd. Queensland and Victoria operate at a Revenue Loss . Does anyone seriously bet on them ? no. I don't bet on them and I'm a big fan. The thing is they still operate because we get Sponsor's, and PAtron's , and Stalwarts and Slot races and all sorts of inspired ideas to keep the SPORT going. It's a Sport , people want to play. Do you shut your local GOLF course when memberships drop off and no-one is 'Betting ' on the players ?? no . They get off their bums and get money from whatever source is available. ENtain helped harness no end and yet you hate it. Brad Steele happy with it . and the participants. All you blokes on these forums Counting runners and Revenue every 2nd week is No help at all. Race a Horse would help !!! like they do in Queensland. People here still racing a horse (or 3) and KEEPING the Game going. (for now)
