    Zappa reacted to Insider in Rick Hore-Lacy   
    This is my holiday reading (2nd time around) because it’s such a great read, but sadly I learned of Rick’s passing today. 
    If you can get your hands on it, do read it as you won’t want to put it down.

    Zappa reacted to poundforpound in A New Year’s resolution for the industry   
    We can make some very basic changes that don’t cost a lot of money, but will add huge value and incentivize betting ….which in turn leads to increased revenue 
    1. make some savings across the RIB / JCA / NZ Racing Lab…..14 Million and climbing per annum is too much to pay for what the three deliver, or don’t deliver actually 
    Invest those savings into enhanced media technology 
    2.Give us some stats and data to make a point of difference 
    Eg give us the weight of each horse as it enters the birdcage with a plus or minus on the “rolling average” of what weight it has been running at 
    3. Put GPS technology in every saddle cloth so that we can see how much distance each horse covered in each start, and where it should have finished if the field was “adjusted” to meters covered in a specific xxxx time
    4. Involve drones following horses, the technology is everywhere, skiing, surfing, climbing, it’s very safe and easily made safer, but hardly used in racing 
    There should be drones offset to the side, above, and behind the field while running,  and you could even make a case for allowing punters to switch their viewing to the drone of their choice in the run
    4. Give us the opportunity to lay horses…it’s a massive market but totally untapped in NZ 
    There we go, thank me later team

    Berri, you may be biased, but you are correct. I was watching flemington yesterday, and I think it was the oaks, straight after the oaks trackside switches to Tamworth trots without placings or any info. Now my problem is the tamworth trot race was already on channel 2, hence both stations covering that race. Bloody poor show.

    Thanks to Scooby, Pondy and Say no More for the effort that has gone in to this fantastic comp!
    Lockdown has been challenging in this household and I've looked forward to this on a weekly basis.
    The last time I won something was a $20 Meatpack pub raffle in 1989 so it's nice to have that winning feeling again today. 
    Looking for a big day on Saturday to keep it going 🙂 
    Cheers,
    Phil
