Racing Victoria's vet woes, the state of the high-end mares market and Tabcorp's banned punters list

from Straight Talk - The Straight · host The Straight Media Pty Ltd

This episode covers a turbulent week in Australian racing: Racing Victoria rescinds a chief veterinary appointment amid past charges, Racing NSW’s integrity manager steps down, and calls grow to expand the Hazzard review. We discuss South Australia’s economic report on racing, the high-end mares market and stallion updates including Home Affairs’ rising profile and Starlust’s fertility setback. In wagering, we examine Tabcorp’s banned-punters list, the federal government’s response to the You Win, You Lose More report, and the regulatory and financial pressures facing bookmakers and the industry.
