Sounds like the MRC and VRC merger is in play. Articles like this don’t appear out of thin air, they are placed, are strategic and there will be more. Interestingly someone purchased the web domain vtc.com.au in January this year. Why VTC, Victorian Turf Club, a

What a shambles. Chaos reigns supreme. breednet.com.au/news/39835/tom…

Peter Lawrence A chairman sacking a CEO he appointed with public fanfare within 3 months raises questionable judgement concerns. Plenty of noise being made, very little substance in my view. In my experience, I am always wary of chairs prioritsing their public persona above all else.

"Everyone can be assured that we have put a management structure in place to ensure a smooth transition" MRC Chairman John Kanga said. Some of the achievements in his "short time as Chairman" "ensuring this smooth transition" include......looking past 5 people already capable of

In the words of my girlfriend upon reading below...."How much longer is he gonna drag the previous committee crap?" Couldn't have said it better, so I didn't. There is a lot more to say about the overreaching later. MRC Chairman John Kanga said: “In my short time as MRC

In-running betting has now opened on this market.

Wow. This is one for the governance experts. In the MRC (VATC) Club rules there is no such position as an Executive Chairman, it doesn't exist. Meanwhile the role of CEO is mentioned 33 times. The CEO is now the designated VATC Secretary. CEO sounds more important than

Another governance own goal as identified by Age article and Message from the Chairman (or is that Executive Chairman). Very disappointing. Forget the MRC merging with the VRC it looks like the MRC has merged with TROA. Does the rest of the Committee know what is going on in

Does the MRC have a shadow director in its midst? The picture below might be in jest but what's to make of a perceived board influence, on top of the leadership void, when it comes to the Cub's commercial standings with its partners and its obligations to statutory authorities?

When the Form Guide Tells a Bigger Story You know that feeling when you're doing the form and suddenly see that JMac has been replaced by a 3kg-claiming apprentice — and the horse has been transferred to a trainer you've never heard of in the bush? That same uneasy feeling hits

In this week’s edition of What’s New @ the MRC… Cue the drum roll… They’ve got a new CEO! That makes three in less than 12 months. Sound expensive? Probably. Especially when you factor in the time, resources, and rigorous process typically involved in finding qualified

Traveling through Paris Charles de Gaulle today and came across this tasty offering. Little left field but MRC DNA if one digs. Those who recognize this know who helped creat a lot of wealth for the MRC Members. Those without any idea what reference this is are the ones wasting

What do you call it when someone steals your coffee? A mugging. That punchline became reality on Saturday at Caulfield. I was stopped at the bag check and told I was in breach of MRC Rule 12(c): no glass bottles or containers, without prior written consent. In other words, no

Going the Early Crow, geez you would reckon a racing guy would know better Kanga…🤦

If I told you a stat about horse racing results you wouldn't believe me! From Don Scott's 1980's Winning More book's 32% of fav's win and 18% of 2nd favs win i.e. 50% from 1st or 2nd fav's win. That stat still holds today. I check it weekly for real track results/bias (Vic/NSW

Why isn’t Caulfield Heath being used more often? In 2025, it’s barely been raced on — three meetings so far. That’s a wasted opportunity for the industry. So why are we letting this asset gather dust? If the priority is to protect the course proper, maintain turnover, and keep
