A RELATIVELY recent report produced by the Thoroughbred Breeders Association in Britain made for interesting reading and was dealt with a few weeks ago but there was one intriguing piece of information contained in that report which is now worth returning to.

In terms of the overall report the item in question barely warranted a sentence in the third last page of the document but it was arguably the most interesting piece of information of all as it noted that 55 races in the world are worth over £1 million but only seven of these are in Europe.
