Saw @jimmy9’s 704th and final test wicket today, 21 years after I snuck out of school to see his very first against Zimbabwe! What an unbelievable sportsman, in every sense of the word. Thanks for all the memories up and down the country! #thegoat

Spot on. From an outside perspective, the amount of time that’s wasted dreaming up new ways to sell the sport, when they miss very basic elements of the current experience, is very frustrating.
🗣"If we believe that the unique selling point of horse racing is the horse and you want people to learn about racing, you need to bring them down to the paddock" @RichardHoiles and @acmulrennan share their view on enabling racegoers to see more of the horses before a race.

Can’t help but agree with @gelliott_racing, the sport should be focused on increasing competitiveness from the ground up, rather than restrictive top down measures like this. Essentially an admission of failure from those in charge.
🗣 "I'm trying to support these races for the racecourses and the sponsors. It's the owners that own the horses. You can't stop owners from having runners" Gordon Elliott is unimpressed by the proposal to limit runners in major handicaps

Belloccio when first arrived from @InfoArqana as a yearling. 4 wins later for @AllForOneRac2 including 2 Listed races and a mighty 4th in yesterday’s September St Gr3 @kemptonparkrace . Belloccio will be offered for sale at the Arc de Triomphe sale @InfoArqana on September 30th
The first of two new arrivals this morning straight from France. This is a striking colt by Belardo. 😍🐎 @DavidMenuisier @KimJohnstone6

UPS said the average full-time driver would earn about $170,000 (£135,000) annually, including healthcare and other benefits, by the end of the five-year contract. That is up from about $145,000 now. bbc.co.uk/news/business-6644… – at Saint Helier, Bailiwick of Jersey

So this group’s aim is to stop breeding of animals for any human purpose (food, pet, sport), is there a figure on what proportion of the population agree with this? @RacingPost – at Brent, London
