In the racing press, and from a lot of casual observers, that narrative resonates. AThe home track deserves to get three quarters or more of the takeout. They=re putting on the show!@ is something we hear. In my view, this is much too simplistic. In today's world, changing systems and downstream investment fosters growth, not something like splits. In fact, squeezing the distribution lemon may be the exact opposite strategy of one that=s really needed. The movie business has been affected by disruptions for many years now. Pirated movies on the Internet, home theaters, DVD, Blue Ray, 3D home viewing, watching films on iPads and smartphones rule the day in some form. I have not even mentioned streaming services like Netflix and its 36 million customers. The movie house should, by all evidence, be suffering, badly. But so far, that has not happened. From 1995 to 2014, the number of screens at theaters grew by 37% across the U.S. Ticket prices grew at the rate of inflation, and total box office gross in 2000 was $7.47B, compared to $10.33B in 2014. Although total moviegoers have decreased, revenues have been solid. What disruption? Although there are many reasons for this growth (or holding their own), the most often cited is the fact that movie theaters as a distribution point to the public began investing and offering a better user experience.

  • Welcome 2009
    WELCOME 2009 The Australian Racing Board is pleased to publish the Eleventh Edition of The Australian Racing Fact Book, our annual reference guide to the Australian thoroughbred racing industry. The Board’s objective in publishing the Fact Book is to draw together under one cover the key results and statistics for the Australian thoroughbred sector for each season. While a number of books and journals report in detail particular aspects of Australian racing and breeding, we can well and truly say that the Australian Racing Board’s 1999 vision has been achieved, and the Fact Book has established itself as a useful and reliable source of the broadest range of information relating to Australian thoroughbred racing and breeding. The facts and figures contained in the Fact Book, will speak for themselves. To breathe some life into this statistical record it is useful to briefly touch on some of the stand-out achievements that have occurred during the period under review. Bart Cummings increased his Melbourne Cup tally to 12 in 2008 with Viewed winning the great race and looked destined to further increase his holdings to 13 this year after taking all before him in the spring with Viewed winning the Caulfield Cup, and So You Think winning the Cox Plate. Faint Perfume would also go on to win the VRC Oaks, however it was the Mark Kavanagh trained Shocking who spoilt the party by taking out the 2009 Melbourne Cup. Shocking’s victory in the Melbourne Cup magnified the highs and lows of racing, with Mark Kavanagh previously tasting defeat in the Cox Plate after saddling up the well fancied Whobegotyou, then having to scratch the favorite for the VRC Derby, Shamoline Warrior on the morning of the race.
