One of the big problems with HRV in the last 10 years or so is they turned their back on the country people(the backbone of the sport) by closing down country tracks and alienating entire communitys by not talking to and engaging with people, So a lot those one or two horse trainers/breeders have quit the sport, At first no one takes any notice until years later(eg- now) that the sport is struggling for foal numbers and everyone wonders why. In my memory, since hrv have been shamed into it by the audit, They have never had any, or barely any around the traps meetings with the participants like they have in the last month of so, So a lot of people feel like they don't have a voice or get listened to so they get fed up and leave the sport.
