It's also possible some of the local interest has waned with the foreign horses. That has been a theme for a few years now.

That too. No doubt there has been some drop off but the reason FTA ratings are down. Is due to many reasons

When did it have an "aura"? Never had one as long as I can remember (or at least not in my neck of the woods), and I'm in my 50s.

Similar age to me

I dunno but I used to watch it religiously or go to Randwick

went down there once it was amazing

didn’t even watch the race the piss up in the section behind it was great

babes everywhere

if you remember Hugo’s nightclub it was a bigger version of that

Maybe we just have a more enlightened generation that isnt buying into harming animals to make money?
Hahaha no gambling....no horse racing. You precious merkin. Let me guess you're vegan too?

How anyone can defend this current pathetic generation is beyond me.

yep, no suckers, no horse racing.
Maybe future generations are just not as dumb as past ones? We can but live in hope that horse racing eventually goes the way of other cruel animal 'sports' that existed for gambling.

"Cruel" fmd you're so misinformed on such a wide range of subjects
yeh whipping a horse so it runs so fast its lungs bleed is such a compassionate past time!
Remember our illustrious leader claiming horses where well treat, then being shown them in the knackers yard? Such an ethical business he runs!

I love having a dig @ the afl.
Cannot wait till Cwood plays in the world club challenge, against themselves. Poor buggers.

Does anyone know if Penrith is going to England, or is Wigan coming here? Is anything confirmed,date, time, venue?
