PICTURE: John GrossickRSPCA has summer jumping 'concern'
THE RSPCA's equine consultant David Muir has entered the debate surrounding the abandonment of racing at Worcester on Wednesday by expressing his "concern" over summer jumping.
While keen racing fan Muir declined to criticise Worcester, he did argue that summer jumping should not take place where horses are landing on ground that is quicker than good.
Muir said: "The main problem surrounds summer jumpingand it is a concern to me.
"At the moment, ground that is good to firm, firm in places is acceptable in jump racing. I don't agree with that and I never have. I can just about live with good to firm, good in places, as long as those good places are on the landing zones."
