Horse racing fears bookmaker sponsorship ban under new PM Burnham
British horse racing is alarmed that Prime Minister Andy Burnham's new government may pursue a ban on bookmaker sponsorship in sport without exempting racing. Industry figures warn such a move could be financially ruinous, given the sport's deep dependence on betting revenue. The concern comes as the British Horseracing Authority continues searching for a permanent leader following Lord Charles Allen's brief and embarrassing tenure, which ended in March.
