  • THURSDAY 12 FEBRUARY 2015 from the HORSE's MOUTH the Road to the $750000 TV3 New Zealand Derby Continues This Saturday
    THURSDAY 12 FEBRUARY 2015 FROM THE HORSE’S MOUTH The road to the $750,000 TV3 New Zealand Derby continues this Saturday. The $100,000 Group Two Essilor New Zealand Avondale Guineas will answer many distance queries about Derby favorite Volkstok’n’barrell. The gelding will face his toughest test to date, over 2100m, with last start winner Mongolian Khan threatening to challenge. It is a thrilling race and a key preview for the upcoming three year old classic on the 28th of February. Tickets are available at http://www.ellerslie.co.nz/#!auckland-cup-week-derbyday/cma5 The Go Racing Syndications Avondale Gold Cup provides a preview of the $500,000 Group One Stella Artois Auckland Cup. The open handicap offers punters value on the weight scaling from 59kg to 52kg. Whoshot Thebarman went on to achieve the coveted double last year and further success in Melbourne. Pondarosa Miss and Perfect Start fit a similar mould of a progressive stayer and look well placed. Hooker Pacific Taranaki Cup day promises to highlight the best and boldest from the Central Districts. A fascinating clash between Kawi, Silverdale and Iamishwara beckons in the Cup. Each horse is looking to break their maiden Group status and in particular Kawi looks a promising type. The $75,000 Phoenix Park 2YO Classic is a difficult race to assess. Generally the juvenile races are highly reliant on front running tactics in New Plymouth, making barrier draws important for success. Expect a fast pace in the race. NEW ERA FOR TAB TRACKSIDE RADIO New Zealand Racing Board (NZRB) has announced TAB Trackside Radio is on the move, with all broadcasting set to take place out of its Auckland-based, purpose-built facility from 14 April 2015.

  • Commercial Radio Reaches 3.3 Million New Zealanders. Total NZ Survey 1 2020
    EMBARGOED UNTIL 1PM (NZST) THURS APR 23 2020 Commercial Radio Reaches 3.3 Million New Zealanders. Total NZ Survey 1 2020 The New Zealand Commercial Radio Industry released the S1 first quarter Radio Audience Data into the market today and it reveals that over 3.6 million New Zealanders were listening to radio every week as the country went into lockdown and over 3.3 million of those listen to commercial radio stations. The GfK Radio Audience Measurement survey contacts at least 14,000 respondents across New Zealand every year. The fieldwork for this survey ceased in late March just before the lockdown was announced. RBA CEO Jana Rangooni says “This is an unprecedented situation for the country and the Industry agreed at this time to suspend all fieldwork until at least late June. This means there will be no S2 Release as originally scheduled for June 25th. We hope to make a decision about options for the remainder of the year by the end of May.” NZME CEO Michael Boggs says Radio’s incredible value to New Zealanders has been reinforced in recent weeks, as it invariably does in times of crisis and uncertainty. “Radio, like all media has been focused on supporting our audiences through this period. Whether it be supporting the Government as a Civil Defence Emergency broadcast partner, delivering round the clock local, national and international news coverage or by keeping New Zealanders entertained and connected, Radio is delivering for audiences as it always does in times like these.” MediaWorks CEO Michael Anderson says that it's clear that New Zealanders are turning to Radio as a trusted source for news and entertainment especially through breaking events like Covid-19.
