AIR New Zealand have seen the light.

[The Centaur]

AIR NZ are moving their head office to Auckland Airport. Apart from economical factors its also psychological. Racing having head offices in Petone is about the most absurd aspect of racing which has plenty of them.  Ellerslie racecourse should be the location for NZTR and perhaps TAB head office as well. Quite frankley its a no brainer.

There was talk moving to Cambridge but that seems to have gone by the bye. Yet the most obvious possibility not even a murmur.

Too late for NZTR, Trackside and now the RIB - they have all moved to Parnell.  Isn't the building they are in owned by a major Horse Stud?

I may not be correct about the RIB but I've heard rumours that they are investing in new premises so I assumed it was joining the clan at Parnell.

Discussion on location of offices has always been muted because of the secrecy. I would have thought racing participants would have a view but in 20 years of racing forums never any real opinions there.
