john legend 743 Report post Posted January 1, 2022 the 17 month season is finally over..Obviously some asterix must be applied to some stats for history. (eg 2 nz cups and 2year olds normally 3 getting shots at records) The totals for earnings for horses and sires may be effected. but some analysis is now available. There were 4 half millionaires this long season. being.....copy that (636000),self assured(631000) sundees son(631000)and bettor twist (536000) and the near miss krug (473000). This is the sunshine end however as it s clear on an average cost of around 2000 per month for racing a harness horse approx 80 % would have trouble showing a profit.sure sales overseas and many factors can change figures but it is clear just how hard it is to get into the "black" with todays costs and level of stakes.... Just saying ... it should not be ignored as if the attraction wanes for ownership then it is a slippery slope for clubs to keep racing...
