Sure they've achieved something, they've been given an award for it. You and TAB can revel in that as an achievement.
Way more deserving persons in this industry doing it without the red carpet.
Good Morning TAB4ever , wonderful to have some delusional race goer like yourself all over this!
I feel for the winners , how can they take themselves seriously?
Put anyone of the young trainers in the top 50 probably more in the TA machine and they also win this prize. Lovely boy no argument for me there and wish him the best , but lets not distort reality here he is jumping a fence off a trampoline when most others are trying to jump out of a 10m deep hole!
Does there come a point in volume of retirements/comebacks when you can't announce a retirement or a comeback anymore?
I mean whats the limit 1 , 2 , 3 , 5, 7 perhaps 19???
Great to see the battlers of the NZ Racing Industry getting recognised!

A few bargains, but based on what over priced stud fees?
I think a few buyers got some bargains including in that $5k & under bracket.
The usual nonsense though , 1st season sires making silly money.
So basically young people like going to the races to catch up with friends and party.
Very appreciative they did a study to under cover this would not have ever thought that was the case.
Next study owners like to own a horse because they mostly want to win races!
