Really?  I always found him very personable and helpful.  Obviously I wasn't privy to financial and other dealings wrt club or Gallop South business.

i presume that extra hour kicks them into a more popular betting window...

Presumably so, but does the extra turnover cover the extra $60,000 in stakes?  And would the fields be any different if the races were worth $18,500? Currently the fields are no better than normal despite an extra $6.500 per race.

Possibly. Come a lot closer than covering the extra stakes for innovation races certainly.

Are they any better for feature level stakes?

We all know what will happen if the activists and the compliant media are successful in getting the greyhounds banned. Next up will be jumps racing, then all horse racing. 

I'm amazed they don't turn their attention to rugby, which has horrendous injury stats and deaths every year. People often seem more concerned about injuries to animals than to humans.

Very good point. You see kids abused and killed but never see activists outside court protesting. As for rugby / league I can see big changes ahead. 

It’s a worry NZ, the Green Party for instance, they are a shambles, yet they still get support?
