In particular, Steve Harman and Nick Rust have given these efforts a fresh impetus and vigour and their determination has been rewarded. We are grateful to all racing’s friends in Parliament, on all sides and in both Houses for their unwavering support. We also thanked all trainers who responded to the NTF’s call for assistance in lobbying politicians locally and in Westminster. You contributed to an industry campaign of unprecedented strength and purpose. The new legislation aims to ensure bookmakers, wherever they are based, make a fair contribution to British horseracing from bets they take on the sport. The proposed statutory mechanism is based on the framework of the Horserace Betting Levy but will satisfy all racing’s key policy objectives and Government’s five tests for the future funding of British Racing: Fair Racing will receive a contribution towards its administration, integrity and future development from all betting operators, regardless of their business model or INDUSTRY channel, creating a level playing field. Sustainable A VAT-efficient model is proposed which provides the flexibility for longer-term arrangements and can react appropriately to future changes in the Betting industry. VAT advantages of the existing Horserace Betting Levy will be retained. Enforceable Appropriate “double-lock” enforcement through a civil right of enforcement and the Gambling Commission fulfilling a role in line with its function under the Levy. Legally Sound Satisfies relevant UK and European Union legislation in relation to free movement, free establishment, competition law and State Aid. Removal The Government will have no ongoing role in the funding of British Racing from of Government betting activity. The current Levy will be maintained, but under revisions made to the 1963 Act, will operate principally as a collection and enforcement mechanism. This is not simply an extension of the current Levy – it is a radical overhaul of the model and will come into force in April 2017. The monies generated will be passed to a new Racing Authority – under the sport’s new tripartite governance structure – with expenditure against a set of agreed heading. The NTF will be closely involved in this process through its role representing collectively the trainers, jockeys and stable staff on the BHA Members Committee. There is still plenty of work to do before the new legislation is passed and revenues begin flowing to racing. The replacement system will be implemented by Secondary Legislation, with the legislative process concluding by the end of 2016. Preceding this will be European Commission clearance in the summer/autumn. Though the likelihood of a legal challenge is receding, the rate at which the take-out from betting is set is crucial. The Government has stated it will restore to racing levels of income it received before the shift towards remote betting. That is something of a moving target but the aim is around £100m per annum. Meanwhile the “Levy cliff” has not gone away. In 2017 statutory yield is set to continue its downward trend and the Levy Board has forecast expenditure cuts. Maintaining the Authorised Betting Partner scheme is essential to offset lower levy yields and the transition to the new mechanism. At the NTF AGM trainers present took a dim view of the large independent racecourses that have apparently chosen not to give outright support to the scheme. The consensus was that Ascot, Goodwood, Newbury and others should give the scheme their unequivocal support. The NTF has coordinated communication from trainers to the racecourses. 2 2017 Fixture List aims to Galloping Policy at support growth Newcastle Racecourse Work is underway on producing the 2017 Following a number of recent requests fixture list with the NTF directly involved in Newcastle Racecourse would like to confirm RACE PLANNING the Fixtures Group that is overseeing the to trainers the situation regarding galloping process.

BHA apologises for late Programme Book The BHA and Weatherbys would like to apologise to all trainers for the late delivery of Volume 2 of the 2016 Programme Book. In a message to trainers conveyed via the NTF, Richard Wayman, BHA Chief Operating Office, said they understand the frustration and inconvenience this will have caused trainers and owners. In the future, the BHA will publish publication dates in advance so that trainers can know when the Programme Book will become available. Volume 3 will be online by May 4th and in hard copy by May 18th, while Volume 4 will be online by July 25th and in hard copy by August 8th. Review of race types by new BHA Racing Group In recent years the structure of the BHA’s racing committees has undergone several transformations. From the beginning of this year it has reverted to a single Racing Group with a remit to cover both Flat and Jump issues. Trainers are represented by Seamus Mullins and Ralph Beckett. At the meeting in March, the Racing Group debated suggestions of different race types to add variety to a programme that is heavily reliant on regular handicaps. Flat horses rated between 81 and 10 were highlighted as a specific concern. Outside handicaps, these horses have limited winning opportunities and it becomes more attractive for connections to sell these horses to go abroad rather than race them in this country.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by the British Horseracing Authority
    Written evidence submitted by the British Horseracing Authority Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee inquiry into impact of Covid-19 on DCMS sectors Introduction 1. The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) – the governing and regulatory body for thoroughbred horseracing in Great Britain – welcomes the opportunity to respond to this inquiry into the impact of Covid-19 on DCMS sectors. This is an unprecedented crisis which is impacting every industry in the British economy and DCMS sectors. However, there are unique and specific challenges which our industry, working with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and other Government departments, is facing in the short and medium term. 2. British racing is the UK’s second largest sport behind football in respect of attendances, employment and revenues generated annually. In 2019, 5.62 million people attended over 1,500 individual race meetings held across England, Scotland and Wales. Our largest events are not only highlights in the increasingly competitive international racing calendar, but also the UK sporting and social calendar. British Racing’s cultural significance is demonstrated by the fact that ours is the only sport which has two annual nationwide events – the Grand National and The Derby –included on the Group A list of full live coverage protected events for FTA broadcast. The sport’s popularity has also once again been recently demonstrated with ITV Racing’s coverage of the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket on 6 June attracting an audience of 1.5 million viewers. 3. This translates into a significant economic benefit for the UK, with our industry generating £4.1 billion in direct, indirect and associated expenditure annually for the British economy.
