What’s the point

6 years 3 months ago - 6 years 3 months ago

There are 15 runners on the entire Lingfield card this afternoon with 4 races having only two runners in them.

Embarrassing.

UK racing in huge trouble... And remember us being attacked for saying the punter is the most important cog in the wheel

Well ARC have reduced prize money because of the projected fall in the levy from Slot machines on bookmaker premises..

Imo they shouldnt even get a cut of that at all!

2 horses in a filed shouldnt be allowed. I reckon if a field has less than 5 runners that race should be cancelled and just have less races for the day like cnc said wtf is the point????

i think that that occurred the otherday at Sedgefield when trainers were protesting and one runner came out of the parade ring a trotted past the post thus declaring it the winner. It took about 30 seconds.

The reason for small fields is a protest from trainers vs the poor stakes
