Thompson Handicap At Trentham. Is it aptly sponsored by funeral directors?

[Wandering Eyes]

The G3 Thompson Handicap races today at Trentham on a Sunday sponsored by a Funeral Director company.  Is this race a sign of where Trentham is heading?

In the past this race has attracted some decent handicap horses - Hold It Harvey, Puccini, Wall Street, King of Ashford, Kristov, Kiwi Can, Copper Belt, Flying Luskin, Val d'Arno, Marconee, Magnitude.....

12 starters today with an average rating of 87 for a G3 Open Handicap.

Very hard to get enthused about anything thats happening in NZ Racing at the moment.

The big boys seem to be going ok but for the ordinary race follower,Racing is certainly in the doldrums.
