Bleak Outlook for British Racing

[Michael5482]

The Gambling Commission is about to release a report that shows gambling-related harm is massive and about to explode but then admitted it is unreliable with the statement "It should not be compared to previous surveys and cannot be used to calculate an overall rate of gambling-related harm" but there releasing it anyway. Begs the question if it's unreliable why publish it other than to cause more chaos.

Flutter have gone on the attack telling racing basically to sort itself out as it's becoming unsustainable for them.

Flutter Chief Executive Ian Brown "We, as Flutter, simply cannot afford to keep investing in horseracing as an unprofitable product with a shrinking audience, where media costs are escalating at significant rates, and the underlying quality of the product is declining." I think it's ARC there having issues with rather than the Jockey Club.

It's a simple fix less racing more quality I don't watch summer jumps but seen Market Raisin put 250k prize money up last Saturday, full fields, competitive racing, each way betting and 10k crowd. Racings issue is there's to many stakeholders with agendas to do anything meaningful, racing is killing racing no one else.

The only saving grace if you can call it that is the Saudi's will be waiting in the wings to gobble up British Racing absolutely no doubt about that.
