Louise Norman, Executive Director of the Association of Racing Horsy Owners, said: “While we need central agreements to reflect a fair and equitable financial model for our sport, they must be integrated into a collective industry that prioritizes commitment and recruitment between racing enthusiasts, career attendees and it is important to emphasize that owners.
