They finally get a sniff (in NSW) of a bit more incentive in the way of prizemoney increases via "race fields legislation" and some will say this takes too much away.
Check out the HRA site poll on prizemoney distribution..68% say more money to prizemoney...11% vote increase trainers percentages. I guarantee that less than 68% of respondants were owners, the vast majority of participants acknowledge the need to increase prizemoney first and foremost.
Cheers,

Goes to show they're listening doesn't it!
