I'm am the first person to tell you that it wouldn't fit and secondly our population in Bankstown is becoming predominantly Muslim, a religion that doesn't drink or gamble and absolutely the wrong population demographic for a racetrack of any kind unless you have millions of dollars from oil wells already.
What I said was a no brainer was locating the track where it will generate the most money. And what we need to do to find out is ASK the betting agencies and their customers, the punter, where they bet the most before we build it anywhere. I'm sure their answer would be along the lines of metropolitan area first, metro outskirts second, then country areas. I may be wrong but if I am then perhaps you could suggest to the Australian Turf Club that the $170 million they are spending on Randwick should have been spent at Bathurst.
