But regardless, he is the man who has got the job done and he should be applauded for that. While I was among those pleased to see the advancement of Racing Amendment Bill, I think it also served as a symbolic point of concern for the racing industry. In this job I talk to all kinds of contributors to racing, including administrators, from all facets of the industry. I can quite confidently say that racing’s leaders have hung their hat on this Bill delivering big benefits to racing. Does the promise of millions upon millions of dollars flowing in to the industry’s coffers seem a little unrealistic?
