A ray of hope for SA racings future
7 years 4 months ago
I am very encouraged by a comment Barry has made on SP. He says:
Nice job and likely helpful for the uninitiated. Behind the scenes there is plenty of action, as folks that I consider to be the rightful stakeholders of the South African racing and breeding industry are busy preparing for a post-Jooste world. There is plenty of conversation about doingwhatever it takes to rid racing’s institutions of the influence of Mr. Jooste and his closest cronies. I think that a lot of breeders have remained silent in the public arena until after the CTS sale. Now that this event has taken place I think we can expect to see some movers and shakers reclaim what they think has been taken away from them. I came over here not only to show my support for the industry by buying some yearlings, but to see what I could do to assist the leaders in our sport. I am very encouraged by what I have seen and heard. Just because very little has appeared in the press about what these stakeholders have in mind or what their feelings are about the Jooste Era does not mean that good things and excellent planning are not being created for the future.
This looks encouraging and I wish him and all others looking to rid our sport of these parasites well

For me this ray of hope can start by turning customer service into customer delight.

It's a pity that Barry Irvine can not be cloned
Horse racing needs 100's of people like him .
