Dods welcomes Government go-ahead for racing to resume
TRAINER Michael Dods has welcomed today's news that the Government has given the go ahead for racing to return behind closed doors at Newcastle on Monday.
Michael said: "We are delighted at the news that the Government has given the British Horseracing Authority the go ahead for racing to resume at Newcastle on Monday.
"What's important now is that everyone pulls together to ensure all those involved are safe. Racing has to resume in a way that breeds confidence so the sport can continue to move forward. It'll be great to be back and, hopefully, things will build from here."
Michael has previously talked about the importance of getting owners back on racecourses as soon as it is safe to do so because they are the lifeblood of the sport.
The yard has three runners on Monday: Dancin' Boy, Twist of Hay and Heath Charnock.
Racing gets underway at 1pm, with 10 races on an ultra-competitive card, televised on Sky Sports.Racing.
