Joe Kidd Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Anniversary day so a public holiday in NZ's largest city today. No race meetings at all to entice the tens of thousands of Aucklanders who had the day off. Poor planning? I can't imagine the same occurring in a large Australian city for example. Racing clubs there would be rubbing their hands together on days like today. Almost akin to a retail outlet not opening on Christmas eve.

Quite right Joe, however the dynamics in Auckland have changed with "multiculturalism" I'm sure a lot of kiwis have left Auckland to go to greener pastures and enjoy the racing in Australia. It's not till I get out of Auckland that I really think Auckland is a complete shithole now and 99% of the New Auckland wouldn't have a clue what Rugby, racing and beer is all about .. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
