Thankfully You're certainly solution focused enough for the both of us  @Chief Stipe! You won't join a committee . You want to sell racing assets. You think reading a set of financial statements gives you a useful insightful view into the industry. You think the NZ Breeding industry is thriving. You believe in fairytales i.e. NZTR Strategic Plans You're the Grand Tours biggest propagandist missed any?      

That is the point, I don't know, but I am looking at the bigger picture in that Entain have chosen to effectively invest a billion dollars in NZ racing over 5 years.  This has meant that stakemoney has effectively more than doubled from what it would have been had Entain not come along. That in itself is a green shoot. I am not denying that there are many problems.

Still 3 years to go.  Your best and only solution offered so far is a used paint brush.

Where are you seeing these Green Shoots appear after the 5 years?
