Racing Charities
The Injured Jockeys Fund provides support for jockeys who have been injured or who have hit hard times.
Greatwood are a charity dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of racehorses particularly those that have fallen on hard times. Their aim is to provide the racehorses with safe secure and rewarding futures.
Racing welfare supports the unseen army, of stud and stable staff, who form the backbone of racing and face potential dangers whenever they're handling the highly strung Thoroughbred. They don't always bounce back after a fall and sometimes they need help.
Racecourses
Links to the various courses can be found on the individual racecourse pages.
Racing Sites
The Racing Post is the paper serving the racing industry. The web site reflects the paper and includes racecards, results and a comprehensive guide to horses, trainers and jockeys. It also contains the latest racing news. You need to register to use the site, however most of the site is free to access, the only charges being for certain downloads.
The Sporting Life newspaper may now be defunct but its website continues to exist. It is an excellent site covering all sports and it has excellent racing coverage.
Racing Web Resources
Two brilliant sites giving access to a large number of racing related links. If you want to find any racing information these are your best starting points.
Puntersparadise is an Australian site, concentrating on Australian racing but also covering world racing.
thebookiesoffers is a great site to view all the bookies latest free bets, offers and bonuses. Also included is a comprehensive list of tipster services and a popular forum for sharing tips, info and advice.
A very interesting blog by a chap who is, to quote the banner on his site, trying to move "from punter to professional investor". A very good read.
Racing Broadcasters
The two dedicated racing channels both have their own web sites. The Racing UK site tends to be more basic, whilst the At The Races site has more information and is more dynamic
Channel 4 provides good terrestial coverage with racing every Saturday from at least two meetings, plus the big mid-week meetings. The Morning Line on Saturday morning previews the days racing.
Racing Forums
www.theracingforum.co.uk is easily the best racing forum on the web allowing members to exchange views on most racing topics.

Others
This one is not a racing site but it belongs to some good friends of mine who rear the best organic pork, lamb, chickens (and plenty more) that you will ever taste. Eat their meat and you will never buy supermarket rubbish again.
