Brodie Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Seriously, the meeting at Palmerston North on Monday is another harness meeting that is guaranteed to lose money! 6 races programmed and dominated by the Michael House stable! Good of Michael I suppose that he has brought his team up or the meeting wouldnt take place! The TAB fixed odds place bets on the Michael House horses are just pathetic, and shows just how the industry in the North Island is! They are offering place divs fixed odds of $1.01 on 2 horses in one race and $1.02 etc in most of the races! Seriously you can not continue to run any business like this and expect to make a profit! Entain chucking money into it is not a solution!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a Michael House Benefit Day, but without him the meeting would not have happened you would think? Just continues to show how poor the horses are in the North Island generally.

mikeynz Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Palmerston North still run a meeting with only ten or so northern visitors, if they dont run mini meetings then its probably goodnight nurse for cd harness Winton today, while a bit better not much though, not sure if the weather having some influence, maybe too much racing or simply not as many training horses these days.

Winton still has enough horses to run a meeting but certainly the numbers have dropped quite significantly to what they were. Think there is a reduction in the number of participants involved in harness racing, horses, owners and trainers. As for Palmerston North, once Michael House stops sending horses up there, meetings are going to be reduced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
