Menangle - your feedback

Big mistake Menangle they thought the people would come to the track instead of taking the track to the people HP was wasnt the answer but by going so far out of Sydney they just put another nail in the head of harness racing. its doomed the sport will fold up very smartly.

I laugh when they say a plunge on so and so these days from 10s to 5s (probably a grand went on) once you could get 20k on a evens fav at Bankstown and it would start bigger odds so strong was the ring then.

The Inghams saw the future and got out quick smart

country trainers being able to have at least 3or4 starts in a row
with their horses & not being able to back up week in week out
like city trainers to get youst of track & speed

God help me When i read this thread the first thing that come to mind was off and on ramps from the Freeway , Low and behold I scroll down and the first thing that I read is the exact same from VVV , Bloody hell it's a bit scary for me when I start having the same thoughts as Triple . lol

[VVV] People like you and I Denny, we cannot help but be ahead of the wave. This is our lot in life my friend, it is the Cross which me must bear.

[VVV] You know full well that was not their primary objective Greg...despite the inescapable fact that the Macarthur district & surrounds is home to one of the fastest growing populations in all of NSW. Take the track to the people? Doomed? Hahahahahaha. What sort of abject crap is that?
You know, I'm beginning to suspect that you might have an alter-ego who is currently on the Board of HRNSW or that you are pretty close to the same, someone that never stops banging on about the merits of that dusty, tight & freaking flat turned verging on Goat track close to Bankstown Airport. The sport has well & truly moved on from that sort of thing Brother. Time that you got over it lest you cause yourself a further gnashing of teeth and more wringing of the hands. As for the Inghams, mate...to my knowledge nobody is stopping you or anyone else for that matter from following Bob & the late Jack's lead. If you don't like it...bugger off.
On the very eve of Prizemoney going through the roof, ushering in an unprecedented era of much greater returns to owners & top quality racing on offer virtually every week of the year, Trooper... if you can't see the upside then I fear even if it began to rain gold, you'd be the one who'd be out & about, complaining about the weather.

Why the hell would you want the showcase of the sport in Menangle where nobody wants to go

Sorry wrong again (you make a habit of that) go back and read if thats possible whenever i mention Bankstown its always about how strong the ring was

Now who is the one going on like some maniac gnashing their teeth ? you.......... so if you dont like my posts then you bugger off and dont answer

On the very eve of Prizemoney going through the roof, ushering in an unprecedented era of much greater returns to owners & top quality racing on offer virtually every week of the year,

Let me educate you here Einstein now matter how much they increase prizemoney that is not what will make the sport survive because without punters investing its doomed and cant survive punters have been deserting the sport for a decade and will continue because gallops will put a lid on the coffin of Harness racing within 15 yrs because its run by admin who know how to get people investing.

Trooper... if you can't see the upside then I fear even if it began to rain gold, you'd be the one who'd be out & about, complaining about the weather.

NAAAAAAAAA i would be complaining the gold is falling through my umbrella

Now run along and stop throwing the rattle out of the pram

2 trips to Menangle now for me and me young son. We're from Vic so should have a long list complaints just to spite those north of border. 'Unfortunately' ZERO complaints. Great venue, great racing. Back again next year for sure... Love it !!!
