- Last week the BHA revealed that betting on racing continues to decline, falling almost 6 per cent in the first quarter of 2024 to extend a rout extending back to 2022. Joined on the Front Page by Bill Barber and Jonathan Harding, Tom Kerr says the latest figures should be a wakeup call for racing and warns the sport's lack of leadership is hindering efforts to deal with the gathering crisis.
The panel also discusses the imminent general election and its implications for racing, before turning to all the latest racing stories including Betfred's sponsorship of all five British Classics, the debate over the Irish Derby length and City Of Troy's upcoming appearance in the Coral-Eclipse.

Bookmakers restrictions making it hard to get a decent bet on these are the same bookmakers that have full page adverts in the Racing Post
of course betting turnover is declining, i am restricted on almost every bookmaker account. The information the industry gives the punter is innacurate, limited and mostly of no use. I have given up to be honest, after 37 years betting on horses. Diluted big meetings, calendar awash with poor quality racing, too many meetings, the list goes on.....racing is in the coffin.
It's a uniparty system in case you haven't noticed yet.......It makes no difference which one of them is in "charge".
Horse deaths is the big turn off for me. The best way ''besides that issue'', to make punter happy is to have all races with 10 or more horses is to give e/w on 4 place at all high street bookies.
There's only a decline in betting turnover on racing because bookies won't take a bet from a winning punter and losing punters are mugs who will bet on anything.
Yep turnover down but bookies profits up. Easy to join the dots. Bookies have in effect used affordability checks to get rid of all the punters they don't want - something we have long suspected.
If no one lost, racing would go bankrupt so them losing punters you hate so much , keep racing going .
@@miller2624 A winning punter is someone who wins more than they lose, nobody always wins. Mug punters/ gambling addicts who bet on anything are who the bookies want.
@TrifficLad33 I know what a winning and losing punter is, but why would a bookies want a consistent winning punter ?
And regarding losing/mug punters , that's 95% of all punters, including Me . Most who claim to be a winning punter , are just the same as the rest of us .
@@miller2624 Yeah same here mate that is exactly my point, so why do bookies constantly restrict accounts when they'd most likely still win long term. They are only after sure fire losers which i think is unfair. These adverts "when the funs stops stop" bullshit, it should be when you're having fun winning we put a stop to that.
Turnover down cuz if u have a winner your restricted
Racing is going the way of speedway.
It’s a good thing. More people getting help for gambling addiction and less people throwing money away.
Racecourses are expected to self-finance the marketing of Premier Racing is quite frankly ridiculous and astonishing as is the lack of a central marketing plan from the BHA and GBR. Time to merge BHA, RCA, ROA, NTF, TBA and HBLB into one body who is ultimately responsible and culipible if things go wrong.
Unusually..a bit listless this episode.
Premier racing, the Racing League etc. All of these things are silly gimmicks that most people aren't interested in, thought up by some out-of-touch marketing people. If the powers-that-be want to know what the racegoer and punter want, go to them directly and stop faffing about wasting money on stuff that your average punter/racegoer doesn't give a toss about.
Not a great programme
500 million going to shareholders not back into racing that's why if it was tote only that money would go straight back into racing
