AS THE OVAL COMES TO A GRIND
HRA the regulatory body responsible for promoting horse races has not posted a article since the McGregor hall of fame a month ago Jan 15th.I guess the loss of the podcast creator has created a industry news void.
MINISTER NALLY responsible for horse racing, replies in a very professional manner about the merits of my numerous emails, that HRA is to post new board member appointments. TENILE tribunal tenure was over Jan 15th, however 3 candidates to fill her gigantic shoes is still a work in progress .
Stall applicatio deadline today, with 491 starters and 73 trainers at mile in 2023 for thoroughbreds, what will 2024 bring with horse populations and marginal equine athletes being culled out due to economics.
CENTURY casino posts a unprecedented 4th quarter forecast a month early due to downgrades by 2 financial analysts. NUMBERS show $100 million market cap(30 million share float and $3.40 stock price) versus 650 million in debt and long term debt obligations, not a pretty picture, horsemen.
HRA 2024-2026 business plan, should be posted soon, last yr Jan 27th,that was buried in their website in the following fields 1. Index/3 bars top left then 2. About 3. Documents. Minister NALLY and hra CEO have been asked to not bury it this yr under the 3 field format, since under 10.1 act indication of HRA performance. Section 4.A promotes and markets horse racing,4.B welfare of racing participants 4.C safeguards interests of general public?
