Entain Australia & New Zealand

Entain Australia & New Zealand has teamed up with other key racing industry players as supporters of Thoroughbred Breeders Australia’s new graduate program. The scheme will give university leavers the opportunity to learn from some of the biggest names associated with racing, breeding and wagering. Those accepted on to the course will undertake a two-week learning block based at Flemington racecourse, before starting an internship with a major employer. Entain Deputy CEO and CFO Lachlan Fitt said: “This program offers young people a unique chance to see every side of the racing industry, from breeding to race-day operations to wagering. At Entain, we know the value of fostering new talent, and this program is a real game-changer for anyone serious about a future in thoroughbred racing. “In today’s industry, hands-on experience and mentorship from leading organisations are key to building the next generation of racing professionals, and that’s exactly what this program offers.” Other companies supporting the program are Godolphin, Gai Waterhouse Racing, Magic Millions, Melbourne Racing Club, William Inglis and Son Ltd, Yulong and the Victoria Racing Club. TBA aim to attract 10-12 graduates in the first year, with the learning block starting in late January 2025. After this fortnight, graduates will join an employer for a paid internship of at least six weeks. Those applying need to have graduated in 2024 or 2023.

The team was delighted to host the inaugural Entain Australia and New Zealand Young Leaders Day at Ellerslie on Tuesday this week, bringing together some of our brightest industry stars for a day of learning and connection. After the success of the first Industry Excellence Awards in July, we started thinking about how we could continue the momentum and create an ongoing platform for our young industry leaders to build relationships, share knowledge, and learn from the exceptional figures in our industry. The day was our first step towards this with attendees hearing from Brendan Lindsay MNZM (Cambridge Stud) about leadership learnings, Victoria McArthur and Andy Cowan (OnTrack) regarding mental health and suicide prevention, Leith Innes (Trackside) about his life post a successful jockey career, Nicky White (Kaha Nui) with the importance of building relationships and connections and Belinda Innes (The Story Co) who gave attendees some tips and tricks for interviews and other media opportunities. Our young leaders also spent time thinking about next year's Awards and how they can take greater ownership in advancing these to the next level. We know everyone who took time to join us took something away from the day, and we'll look forward to seeing our young leaders continue to thrive and develop, as they apply their new learnings. Given the success of this initial day, we will look at a further opportunity to formally connect our young leaders again, in the New Year.    #leadership #development #youngleaders #industryleaders #relationshipbuilding    Jessica Meech  Andrew Hannan  Lachlan Fitt Cheryl Hirtzel Jess Innes Alicia Gainsford Matt Smith

It's one day out from the 2024 edition of The Everest and I Wish I Win had a stroll around the Randwick stables this morning ahead of the A$20 million slot race that has grabbed Australia's attention since its inception in 2017, and now New Zealand's. This year's field is incredibly strong, but I Wish I Win - racing in the Trackside NZ slot - is primed and ready to go after two great lead-up runs in Melbourne. Kiwis have heard plenty about The Everest in the build-up to , with I Wish I Win's journey and TAB's $10m Everest Mega Millions competition both making headlines this week, and the team can't wait to see what unfolds at 4.15pm Sydney time tomorrow.

I Wish I Win was the hero of our campaign for The Everest last year, and all eyes are on him as he chases redemption in this year's edition of Australia's biggest slot race, running in the Trackside Media slot once again. Interest in the 2023 running of The Everest more than doubled last year, and Kiwis love backing one of their own who was bred on the beautiful grass of Matamata. Look out for more on I Wish I Win next week ahead of next Saturday!
