Perhaps for some. But the deal always did have a smoke and mirrors flavour to it. I look at the 5 year funding promise as a windfall rather than long term. The industry is not spending that windfall wisely. If you take a negative strategic view then you would be spending more on fixing the infrastructure (e.g. tracks) in the first two years rather than throwing it at top end stakes and novelty races. (I think they need to spend another $15 million on the Ellerslie track - $55 million and they have been doing "remedial work" since it was first raced on!). The biggest worry is ENTAIN are a FTSE 100 company and have corporate knowhow to operate on a global stage. What are the get out clauses in the contract with NZTAB? -
You can bet fixed odds with the Ozzie Bookies. The tote pools especially Queensland are pathetically small so not sure why anyone continues to bet into them?. The fact that anyone from NZ with a NZ TAB is not now allowed to bet from it must be costing the NZ a lot of turnover. -

I suspect McAnulty and NZTAB over promised with the legislation and the projected financial numbers were inflated. ENTAIN over valued the business from the beginning. The write down is just a paper loss at this stage.
