Closed on

Open all British horse racing courses to the general public as soon as possible to save jobs, boost the economy & improve many racing fans mental health.

There are thousands of jobs in British horse racing, millions of pounds is generated from horse racing for the economy. The longer courses are closed to the general public the danger is they could close forever, trainers will go out of business & owners will stop supporting the sport which will cause thousands of job losses & put the sport in huge danger & a huge loss to the economy. Horse racing is an outdoor activity & is a boost for many racing fans mental health.
