Horse racing is a sport enjoyed by equine and betting enthusiasts worldwide. The multi-billion-pound betting industry is arguably one of the most thrilling sports to become involved in.

Equine welfare remains at the forefront of all trainers, owners, breeding and enthusiasts’ minds, and the utmost care is provided by all those responsible for every single horse involved in the sport.

The sport is regulated by organisations such as The British Horseracing Society, responsible for governance, administration and all activities by those actively engaging in the sport in Great Britain.
