Andrew Scott does come across well when interviewed. Sounds reasonably intelligent. -

I think we just have to accept that we will inevitably lose certain horses. Nothing you can do about it. We just have to retain the solid professional types who go around and are competitive most weeks. I don't know whether real class actually beat much so good luck on the owners for getting a good price for it. -

I would like to commend the O'Sullivans ( I include Paul ),Mr Scott and the owners for the handling and patience with this mare ..they devised a plan and it paid off big time ..Other trainers may have over raced and burnt her out (e.g. Mr Rogerson )...I wish you all the best and hope that she repays your dedication with many more class performances. -

It is very hard to govern , my thinking is more along finding ways to incentivize people to race their horses here . No easy answers but it is not impossible either , just takes a will . -
Sorry for pointing out a bad luck story in our game of a talented young horse . Fuckn both of you are trolling peace’s of work . I read how you carry on in most of these topics . Wouldn’t be happy what ever any one said -
Sorry for confusing you HOKES ,no not on the Turps just wanted to put Paks in the picture but he probably already was, ,as the only people that register with that post were those who follow Downtrou,(Paks being one ) which of course doesnt include you after you missed it in four when Hercock dragged it back cert beat . and today when you thought Black Betty could beat it , lily unfortunately isnt the right rider either but still ran a game second staying nearer the rail after drawing wide...but hey at least she put it in the race...take the 3s for a place all day....you are going ok hope you are making plenty😀 . -

My nom de plume is from a cricket club I used to play for. I think your mathematics teacher gave you your nom de plume. -

And it is those horses that frank the NZ form sufficiently to retain the Group status of the races we have managed to. Killing that export business with a levy like that would damage the breeding industry and reduce the foal crop further. Many of our best horses are exported as yearlings. Would you put a levy on those as well? -

The same thing happened when Winston got Helen Clarke to fund 15 $1m races. Zero residual benefit for the NZ industry. The Derbys were won by third rate Aussies and the Oaks winners mostly got sold overseas. I can't even remember who won the other races. -

And how will you know what 5% is on private sales ?? , selling horses is the only reason racing has survived for many years . -
It's a start , I was thinking more about incentives too keep and race horses in NZ .

Like any business, I assume HRNZ and Entain look at the overall bottom line for harness racing, not club by club. For instance, Auckland and Cambridge mostly service one pool of horses/trainers/owners and the high stakes at the former are balanced out by the low stakes at the latter. That's not to say I don't think there could be a little more equitable stake distribution. But as the Next Gen scheme shows, HRNZ and Entain have identified what they think is important to ensure our industry future (new owners, supporting new trainers and sires, and more 2yos racing). I don't agree myself with the amount of money going to those fortunate to have a precocious juvenile. But we seem to follow the US in this, not the Europeans/Scandinavians. -
