This is an important discussion the racing industry should be having at the highest levels. Horse racing is a multi-billion dollar industry, yet when it comes to attracting and developing future talent, the approach feels fragmented and reactive rather than strategic. People are the industry's most important asset. From stable staff and trackwork riders to jockeys, trainers and the many supporting roles that keep the game going. Racing's long-term success depends on strong pathways that identify, attract and develop talent from the grassroots level. Major sports invest heavily in academies, development programs and talent pathways because they understand that today's juniors become tomorrow's professionals. Racing should be thinking the same way. The state-based certificate courses available today play an important role, but they are only one piece of the puzzle. ๐Ÿ’ก The industry should be investing in a coordinated long-term vision that promotes racing careers, develops skills, creates opportunities and builds the workforce it will need in 10, 20 and 30 years' time. Great horses get the headlines and are essential to the sport, but great people are what sustain it.
"It'll bring the industry to it's knees... we won't have a racing industry." Henry Dwyer (@HDwyerRacing) on the state of racing employment and why reform is needed. @bet365_aus | @SENGiddyUp

Max and @GilgaiFarm did a remarkable job presenting this weapon of a colt ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ We loved him and canโ€™t wait to have Max along for the ride! Bring it on ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ
SALE DAY SNIPPET: Then-15YO Max Skillecorn went viral last year when he pinhooked a horse through #InglisPremier, which sold for $40k. This year, Max is back to try his luck again. He bought a weanling colt for $5k at #InglisGreatSouthern and offered him for sale at Oaklands today. The result? Something simply extraordinary and something you genuinely must watch!

As we reflect on a huge weekend of racing last weekend, we were so proud to see one of Bendigo's own trainers, Toby Lake (@TLakeRacing) win the Manangatang Cup with Holly's Star. This is a reward for so much hard work from the team at Lake Racing & who knows, maybe we will see Holly's Star pop up for another country Cup. ๐Ÿ†
