I know it's a bit off topic, maybe maybe nor but but around scheduling, the betting figures someone produced showed a significant turnover drop last December for both Kurow and Taupo who raced Monday last year as opposed to the Sunday the year before, noting that Taupo has moved forward a couple of days this year, to get a non week day, tomorrow many will be back to work for a couple of days, guess it's the luck of the draw and the way the days fall, not much you can do sometimes but it suggest to me on course turnover is significant at holiday time, so losing the non working day does make a big difference. -

Remind me what Messara's recommendation for Levin was. -

I am baffled as to how a positive story about the Southland club having run a successful event for 17 years with a decent profit put back into racing as instructed by NZTR, has turned into a negative rant. -

You are talking about an ideal world. Are you telling me you have never sat through meetings where no one gets it? Three or four meetings in and the rest of "the team" finally twig. Opposing view = opponents in my book. Some cannot look at the situation from everyone's perspective, the bigger picture. Trainers are pretty good at talking through lead up race options and any pitfalls with points allocation with the ratings system, the logistics of travelling and campaigning, which group of horses struggle to get consistent starts etc. Clubs are looking at it from a more selfish angle, what's best for their day and turnover. -

I don't know the dynamics of the southern programming committee. Is there only one trainer on it? That can be corrected at Trainers Assn level. Several trainers have a voice in CD and are usually prepared with what hasn't worked, what might not work and new ideas to be discussed.
