Read back in the thread, I tipped the winner, before it ran and without bringing up nonsense about sectionals,  what are you the Bride of Aidan Rodley or something?

You are correct Chief that I hadnt checked out the accounts for HRNZ at all, and appreciated you showing the actual financial position! What it does appear to show us all is that they are not that financial to give us much confidence in the future considering recent receipts such as Forbury sale and Entain putting mega millions in and with future promises!

The track drying out during the course of the day may have been a factor too.

Oaklawn Park will support a new purse incentive designed to reward horsemen who support the track for the remainder of the 2025-2026 racing season, Oaklawn announced Saturday. Beginning with Condition Book 4 released March 19, 2026, the incentive will apply to the 25 remaining scheduled race days of the meet and, per the release, “will reward races that attract larger fields.” Under the new structure, Allowance and Maiden Special Weight races will receive an additional $5,000 in purse money for each official starter above nine betting interests, except for stake races; all other overnight races will receive an additional $2,000 for each official starter above nine betting interests. Through the new purse incentive program, Allowance races could potentially reach $140,000 while the lowest overnight purses could increase to as much as $36,000 when races exceed nine official starters. “We're always looking for ways to strengthen the racing product for both our horsemen and our fans,” said Louis Cella, President of Oaklawn. “This program provides additional purse money when races draw larger fields while supporting the competitive racing our fans expect at Oaklawn.” The post Oaklawn To Reward Larger Fields Through End Of ’26 Racing Season appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
