reasonably certain that the financial results for the current reporting period
will be more than 20% different than that of the previous corresponding period.

improvement of 47,5% and the loss per share will be higher by 24,3% for the six
months ended 31 December 2004 in comparison to the previous corresponding
period.
The reasons for the improvement in headline loss per share is the increase in
revenue and a tighter control over expenditure for the period, while the reason
for the increase in loss per share is the loss on the disposal of the equine
operations.
The financial information on which this trading statement is based has been
reviewed by the company`s auditors, and the publication of the results is
