There is a lot of missinformation in this report.It says Rangiora is only used for training ;Rangiora is the largest trials centre in the south island,I see that when they visited Gore they didn't even get out of the car ,let alone walk on the track.The Kumara thing is just a joke.No horse or people accomodation let alone running four meetings when they struggle to run one. Blenheim,I love the races up there but they struggle for horses and without K Myers it wouldn't happen so how long will it be before he doesn;t go. I see they intend to take ownership of these tracks plus any cash assets they have.Good luck with that.They also intend to mortgage these assets to accumulate the money required.What a bloody joke !!!They have wasted away all the assets that the racing industry had in previous years and now have these huge debts.It is always easy to spend someone elses money and they are certainly good at that.I am fully aware that some tracks have to go but their choices are poor,with not a lot of thought.As for Winston Peters,Do we really think he will get in at the next elections,It was barely by the skin of his teeth 12months ago but he is very good at holding people to ransom thats for sure.He is now doing this to the racing industry.
