I think I see what you mean now - the table below that shows the comparisons and lists staff excluding Melton and Menangle
(somebody sent it to me as little Stevie Cleve threw a hissy fit and banned me from AHRI group fb page 12mths ago)
So are the Employment costs also excluding the metro tracks?
I have been retired for 10yrs but the money seems pretty good when averaged out
HRV 103 staff @ $152,427
HRNSW 50 staff @ $142,000 (amazing how that averages so neatly)
One of our members has been fantastic at sending me information
The following 2 graphs show how the wheels have fallen off since 2019
How did they not put the brakes on!
Instead they just borrowed and borrowed
Any news since the rally
I look on the Victorian Harness Racing Club fb page but don't find anything new
(The page itself seems to have gremlins - sometimes it splits their latest post and show no comments, sometimes it is whole and has 4 comments attributed to it)
I doubt a $30k race should be run at Ballarat on a Thursday night (but I am looking forward to it)

We all know that the timing is particularly bad as we are heading into breeding season and it is plausible that they have agreed to put everything on hold for the (supposed) good of the industry but I cannot imagine all the kindred bodies hanging fire for months
Shane Gloury provided this update on the AHRI FB site earlier this week:Quote:

We are also hearing that local MPs have been receiving plenty of meeting requests and emails from concerned Harness Racing participants. We will keep everyone informed as developments unfold.
Thanks Carol, as I have said many times, that wonderful little man Steve Cleve banned me from there for ZERO reasons (I have a transcript of the exchange if anybody was ever interested)
Looking at the Kilmore fields for their cup day made me ponder whether Vic should become the 'trotting state' (even more so than it already is) as only $25k was needed to attract as good a field for the Trotters Cup as the $75k could muster for the Pacing Cup
How does turnover stack up on trots races compared to pacing races?
