Industry Indicators - Good, Bad & Ugly

[Messenger]

The HRNSW 2019 Industry Breeding Report can be found here

https://www.hrnsw.com.au/hrnsw/docum...reeding-report

It contains many Australia wide and NZ figures too
It is lengthy but well presented and easy reading
If you are invested in the industry it really should be a must read

The comments try to be positive where they can but the raw figures decline is pretty depressing (not that we didn't already know this)

You will find a thread in the Breeding forum where Alabar's Alan Galloway is forecasting doom in a few years due to the rise in frozen semen

I had a look at tonights Vic TAB pools (to compare to last night's Kilmore Cup)
It is no doubt a sub standard meet to be putting on at headquarters (Long weekend or no long weekend)
But what is going on tonight - the win pools are pathetic

The 2 $4k races Stewarts had runners, clearly detrimental to the industry and should be banned from having runners

It would be nice if Terang could attract more starters

39 horses constituted a meeting at Terang tonight (only 6 races = av field size 6.5)

Are we seeing a decline in the West?
Only 6 races at Horsham today (47 horses)
