WATCH: The Front Page - is British racing sleepwalking towards a breaking point?
British racing is running out of road. A new special report by ex-jockey Richard Killoran lays bare the deep structural problems threatening the sport – from collapsing foal crop and falling attendances to a funding system that returns far less betting turnover to the sport than in other countries.
This week on The Front Page, we dive into the findings and ask the big questions:
- Is British racing’s business model fundamentally broken?
- Have governance battles and media-rights dependence left the sport unfixable?
- What would real change look like – and can it be delivered?
Join Tom Kerr, Scott Burton and James Stevens as we cover this urgent report, plus look back at a packed weekend on the track and pick the bones out of the Haggas-Purton spat.
