Noodlum Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 Thoroughbred racing got a $30m gift from the Government for new infrastructure (Synthetic Tracks) why didn't Harness get a similar amount? Afterall Harness provides as many races to bet on as the Gallops. Quote
OLDWHITEMAN Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 Because Winston Peters racing industry backers are from the thoroughbred industry. Winston looks after his cronies. Harness racing is irrelevant to him. 2 Quote
