Racing behind closed doors

Country’s are going into lock down and some fighting about wether racing goes ahead
Holland in lock down from 6 pm tonight latest country
It’s not looking good

Racing will go the same way as the other sports, no way on earth are a couple of ambulances going to be spared to attend a race meeting, no ambulances = no racing.

I got the impression that even under these lockdowns, everywhere (apart from parts of China) the governments were still expecting people to go to work (if fit) and were allowing them to get shopping.

If u look at China they are putting cameras on housing areas u are allowed to put buckets out with masked but if caught wandering its jail

BREAKING NEWS!

The meetings from later this week are to be behind closed doors Duffy they just decided
Closed doors from later this week

The bba just confirmed this Geoffe glassy  seems mr burkey was correct again

Mart,

In Sweden where i live there are only 22 cases in Östergötland County (Linköping is the local capital) and there are no plans for a lock down.

I'm currently working in München, Germany returning to Sweden once a month. As of today there are 681 cases in Bavaria and borders with France, Austria, Denmark, Luxembourg and Switzerland are being closed from tomorrow. Germany now has 4,838 confirmed cases.

Hopefully i can still travel home in a couple of weeks.

Hello Andrew hope your well

Never been to Sweden are the restaurants and the drink as expensive as people say ?

That’s because the Tory gov lies about the value of oil
Billions hidden u know it London boy !

Evening Foxy, hope you’re well.

mart, oil is a commercially volatile commodity that you cannot base an economy on.

Mart, are you sure horses can't spread this virus? Just read an article that contradicts that statement,

Same Foxy. All of this bloody panic buying is insane. If the supermarkets run out of fois gras I’m going to be absolutely livid.

Disappointing the premier league went against the government and rugby union felt they had to follow.

Agree. Mind you, our Premier League season probably ended early September!

WRONG AGAIN.

Never been to Sweden are the restaurants and the drink as expensive as people say ?

Hi Foxy, good here thank you, hopefully with you and loved ones.

A lot depends on the GBP/SEK exchange rate that at the moment is favouring GB tourists due to the weaker pound, currently around 12 SEK, but there have been years when it's as low as 10, and that is closer to the real rate.

Alcohol is expensive per se and you can't buy it in a supermarket as in GB.

You would pay more than London prices, but of course it depends where you eat/drink.

If you went for a Ribeye steak meal in Linköping (where i live) you would pay around £65 a couple (trimmings and drinks excluded) but there are many restaurants where you could pay less. You will pay more in Stockholm, but again there are cheaper outlets.

The one thing that is expensive is a haircut, you will not get one less than £36 in an ordinary hairdresser in Linköping and that is the basic price.

base an economy on whiskey,salmon,50 years oil reserves and a massive english subsidy.

which mclunatic will be overseeing this fiscal masterpiece

Thanks for your detailed reply Andrew very helpful hopefully I will get there one day ,thankfully not for a haircut.

Foxy, it's a wonderful country and everyone speaks English, even youngsters.

Just don't go in Winter

Looks like all these people he knows are deliberately putting him away or hes just makes it up as he goes along.

British racing is likely to go behind closed doors from later this week, initially until the end of March but potentially for much longer, following a recommendation of the industry’s Covid-19 working party which will be considered on Monday by racing’s senior executives.
Possible changes to the fixture list will also be considered, while a statement issued by the British Horseracing Authority on Sunday evening said the government “has been briefed on the issues involved in staging the Grand National” on 4 April and “a decision will be announced as soon as possible”.
Racing has already moved behind closed doors in France and Ireland while the meeting on Monday at Kelso – which is subject to a Scottish rule banning gatherings of more than 500 people – will be the first meeting held without spectators on the British mainland. Cards are also scheduled for Southwell and Hereford on Monday, however, and also at Wetherby and Taunton on Tuesday which will not be subject to a ban on spectators as things stand.
The four-day Cheltenham Festival, one of the sport’s most important meetings, took place as scheduled last week with up to 68,000 people in the grandstands on any one day. Hand-washing stations were deployed around the track, but as the Festival unfolded one sport after another decided to suspend all activities.
“Racing has worked hard to look after our customers and our staff by following the government’s guidance and taking proportionate action,” Nick Rust, the BHA chief executive, said on Sunday. “We will agree plans to limit attendance to participants and staff only at race meetings from this week and put in place the contingency plans developed by the industry.”
In a press release the BHA said its “intention is to agree a programme that is sustainable in the light of possible staff absences, including in critical roles, which protects industry staff and supports the wider effort to free up critical public services”. It added that “details of contingency plans have been shared with the department for digital, culture, media and sport” and that racing “has continued to observe the government’s request for a proportionate response that takes into account public health and the impact on jobs and businesses”.
After the Premier League decided on Friday to suspend its season following the news that Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal manager, had tested positive for Covid-19, it was widely reported the government would ban large gatherings from as early as next weekend. No figure for the limit has yet been confirmed, however, or whether there will be a different limit for indoor and outdoor gatherings.
Racing is an industry as well as a spectator sport – and in particular an important employer in rural areas where other jobs are often scarce. The most recent report on racing’s economic impact, in 2013, suggested around 20,000 jobs depend directly on the sport, while it has an important role to play in as many as 50,000 more including those in the betting industry.
Britain’s 60 racecourses, which will inevitably bear the immediate brunt of the cost when paying spectators are excluded, operate a variety of business models. Some stage meetings with few live spectators but which attract enough interest from betting‑shop and online punters to earn media-rights payments from bookies. A few stage major, money-spinning festivals such as Cheltenham, Aintree, Royal Ascot and the Derby meeting, while others rely on one or two big days to support the remainder of the programme.
Some tracks even change their approach according to the season. Lingfield, for instance, staged 78 fixtures in 2019, and the top three days in terms of attendance – two summer Saturday afternoons and the All‑Weather Championships on Good Friday – pulled in more paying spectators than the bottom 45.
They will all feel the pinch in various ways as racing continues without paying spectators, and require some extra funding to make up the shortfall. With the betting industry equally in need of turnover with all other sports suspended, it is clearly in the interests of racing and the bookmakers to work together as never before in the coming weeks.

Equine Enteric Coronavirus and Covid-19 are both coronaviruses but are distinctly different viruses, and there is no evidence to indicate that horses could contract Covid-19, or that they would be able to spread the disease to other animals or humans, according to several international health organisations.

Coronaviruses include a large group of RNA viruses that cause respiratory and intestinal symptoms, and have been reported in domestic and wild animals. An RNA virus is a virus that has ribonucleic acid as its genetic material.


Illustration of a Coronavirus.
In addressing questions raised by horse owners, equine veterinarians at Florida’s Palm Beach Equine Clinic Equine said Equine Enteric Coronavirus and Covid-19 are not the same strain, and there is no indication that either is transmissible between species.

“Equine coronavirus is an enteric, or gastrointestinal, disease in the horse. There is no evidence that equine enteric coronavirus poses a threat to humans or other species of animals,” the clinic said.

“The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), infectious disease experts, and multiple international and national human and animal health organizations have stated that at this time there is no evidence to indicate that horses could contract Covid-19 or that horses would be able to spread the disease to other animals or humans.”

Closing the doors is the correct thing to d0.

The idea that they will open anytime soon is rather unlikely

We are thought to be a month away from its peak, could be months.

No one knows...... should make Charlie Rich!!

i see what yer did their Big Aitch went over me head initially.

Typhoo does not know oops

chelt going ahead when it was 1-5 to be cancelled on here

Ive no vendetta with anyone who posts the truth as known @ the time of posting

I do and im sure many others do have problems with someone who posts/passes on info LIES/FALSE INFORMATION/MISLEADING POSTS  as known @ the time of posting then when proven wrong dont have the courtesy to apologise to those they have mislead.

Have good day Martina.

Have good day Martina.

With the National being cancelled , France stopping racing . Surely it's only a matter of time before racing stops .

Yes in hell .Would be surprised if its still going ahead this time next week.

" the fact am in contact with over 2000 owners train Vets ,  racing people , bookmakers ,"

Which still leaves us with the unanswered question of why all these fantastically well connected people would be the slightest bit interested in talking to a semi literate, potless, jobbing builder who has never ridden a horse, never trained a horse, never bought a horse or owned a horse?

Cannot see how racing will be able to continue even behind closed doors. Although the number of people at the tracks will be tiny, it will still be more than 10 and it will look bad that racing continues while so much else is having to stop.

But, of course, there is a strong case for saying that tracks and trainers etc. need to still have their livelihood.

A horrible situation but I suspect the world will get through it one way or the other.

After all, we survived WW2 and the death, destruction and disruption over those 6 years was enormous.

last day today.
