That's funny PS - because I nearly wrote 'still anybodys game, except Pure Steel' From ScienceDirect: Steel is graded and classified into four groups: Now 5 Carbon steels. Alloy steels. Stainless steels. Tool steels. Can't win steels.

Some nice sideline interest in who will be top dog in the Aggregrate Stakes. Here's a form review of the top hopes leading in to the final weeks. Pogo (AUS) - Took off like Kotare Chief landing a 100 to 1 shot, but will it be a case of Po g0ne too early ?? Littletramp - has littletrampled a few opponents on his way to the second spot and one more big week might prove enough to get the spoils. Winner69 - will it be Winner Winner Chicken Dinner for 2? Nicely poised to 'take it out'. Aaron the Anchor - ever consistent week in week out and belying his Anchor tag, s0 far. Idolmite - some weeks have been more Idle than Might, but still lurking with a potential knock0ut punch. Jack - obviously knows more than jack ....., and not too far back to be considered a winning hope. Basil Brush - can go boom at any time so shouldn't be underestimated. Or will there be a withering burst from someone buried in the pack ??? Recommended First 4 - Pogo to hold 0n , Aaron to run into 2nd ,Winner69 & Littletramp to close to call.

Well, after last night I really do think we are seeing as good a talent as we've had on these shores for quite some time. Behaved perfectly on his first look at The Park and won as he liked really against some pretty decent types. Only shock for mine was the $5.50 dividend

Cheers, Phil -
The trotter I backed very much has a future as a Galloper Idolmite - hardly trotted a yard!

The Entainers might even build some attention to detail in their flash new APP - FFS Just did some dough betting on the 6th at Shepparton - I exclude betting on Trotters but have been led up the path because the Muppets can't even deliver basic details such as race names and types.

Is that BS de Lore or de Shannon based??? For mine it's a bunch of large ambiguous money with ambiguous destinations. Not sure what is de Facts and what is de Fiction here and whether or not Racing is truly going to be a winner in de End
-
Sadly, the young ones with a passion for racing are few and far between Idolmite. Betting on Sports seems to hold more appeal for them and from Entains perspective, I'm pretty sure Sports Games and online Machines are a more cost efficient way of drawing in the $$.

Last week I nearly posted a new thread about my instincts on Entain entering the fray, and parts of this article reinforce my thoughts around this. Is Entain the 'wolf in sheeps' clothing ? I believe the 'prop up' of racing is most likely a front for the end goal of owning the online Gaming and Sports betting. Racing with all it's expensive, cumbersome and dying breed of supporters is surely too much of a pain in the arse for it to be of long term interest. The injection into stakes as part of the deal, as welcome as it is, is small fry in the Entain world. The $200 million dollars is 'part of the global IT development, yet almost gets pitched in a way to make NZ'rs feel like it's about us. Or am I reading it incorrectly? All these big numbers get thrown around, but what amounts are actually directly racing oriented and not just part of the bigger end goal ? Add to the mix ''but this partnership has a cautionary side regarding the long-term sustainability of racing. We are in the honeymoon phase but should remember that the deal has to work financially for both parties to survive beyond the annual $150 million guarantee, which ceases in 2028' and I'm far from convinced the deeper this marriage goes, racing will be divorced and left on the outer. Hopefully this is a complete misread on my part and there truly is a Golden Fleece. For those that might be interested, have a poke around their website ......not much racing from what I can see https://www.entaingroup.com/

Thanks for the 'live feed' Chevy, which is always good to know It sounds like it may have been better then I would have expected, but maybe not yet compelling enough to revisit my also, mispent youth. One thing I do know, no matter what sport, it's always tons better live, so maybe I should give it a go!
