Talking Horses: Racing UK seeks to reassure fans over Irish racing row


Concern has been expressed by the Racing Post’s Ireland editor that Irish racing could be sidelined from January

‘Uproar’ is not, I think, too strong a word for what I’ve seen on Racing Twitter on the question of future coverage of Irish racing over the last 12 hours.
