Betfair response to racing's submission published

Mark Davies

I see the Levy Board has posted on the 'news' page of its website the Betfair response to racing's submission in relation to the 50th Levy Scheme. I mistakenly posted yesterday that it was their full submission to the levy consultation which was opened on the back of David Zeffman's article on behalf of the BHA published by the Racing Post, but it's fair to say that will be rather longer when it comes out.

For reasons I can't quite put my finger on, each time I read it,  I can't get that tune that used to play when you got eaten at the end of Pacman out of my head.
