Best thing since sliced bread apparently 0- but will they allow (negative) discussion on how big the slices are and who's doing the cutting.  I think not.

Knowing D Ryan I expect editorial independence. A form guide and industry comment is needed.

Really?  NZRB shafted The Informant and now come back with their own publication on the back of a unprofitable Best Bet.

So on the one day a year I now need a Best bets (annual boys punting day at the pub) can't get a best bets - local Tabs all sold out apparently!

Note I would probably not cater for a few times a year buyer but I was for 30 odd years a 2 a week purchaser of the Turf Digest and also the Friday Flash, Informant on a weekly basis.  So it shows how my lack of interest has grown over the past couple of years and it all comes down to a lack of leadership and outdated thinking amongst the heavyweights of the industry especially at the NZTR who are a pitiful lot.
