COPY OF EMAIL SENT TO SIR GEORGE YOUNG MP ON MONDAY OCTOBER 31st 2011
The Rt Hon Sir George Young BT MP Leader of the House of Commons since May 2010
Lord Privy Seal since May 2010
Dear Sir George
ALL- PARTY RACING GROUP OF MP'S MEETING SET FOR TUESDAY NOVEMBER 1st
Expressing deep concern herewith: If you politicians' within governments are expecting
to go on taking huge revenue out of horseracing then you need to make absolutely sure thatBritish Horseracing is being run properly.
"MP'S TO SUMMON LEADING FIGURES IN WHIP DISPUTE
"The controversy surrounding the new whip rules is set to enter the political arena next week,
when the All-Party Racing Group of MP's meet to discuss the crisis embroiling the sport."Yesterday leading jumps owner David Johnson added his voice to the criticism of the BHA hierarchy, already under pressure to make further concessions over the penalties that were revised last week.
"Johnson's comments come after JOHNNY MURTAGH'S decision to follow RUBY WALSH'S lead and limit his appearances in Britain in protest over the regulations that restrict the number of times the whip can be used, and impose heavy punishments on riders found in breach.
"With no sign of a resolution in the debate, the All-Party Racing Group will bring the parties
together on Tuesday (November 1st 2011) when debating the issues with senior figures from the warring factions."Also attending the meeting will be Kevin Darley, (A proven Bloodhorse Literate horseman
of the highest standing) chief executive of the Professional Jockeys Association, along withBHA representative Jamie Stier, director of raceday operations and regulation, and Dr Tim
Morris, director of equine science and welfare." END

A SHOCKING SITUATION: SOMEONE NEEDS TO POINT THIS OUT:
Sir George, with respect neither Jamie Stier (Australian) nor Tim Morris (Veterinary) are
bloodhorse literate therefore they are not qualified to review issues or change rules relating
to British Whip Tactics in races, or the use of the whip used within licensed trainers teams
eg: If you have toothache, you do not go to a Farrier to get your tooth or teeth fixed.
FEMALE AGENDA
It was interesting that our own Queen Elizabeth whilst visiting Australia last week spoke up
confirming her beliefs regarding the female of the species. Legally now to be freed from some
gender predetermination, prejudices.
MONTY ROBERTS BLOODHORSE LITERATE HORSEMAN USA
Monty was invited to stay with our Queen at Windsor Castle in the early 1980's, what
followed is Historic legend, our Queen together with other members of the Royal family, not
only love horses but have achieved bloodhorse literacy themselves, hitting the headlines for
all the right reasons.
Whoever attends your meeting tomorrow needs to make absolutely sure that
KEVIN DARLEY is shown huge respect. This work he is attempting to achieve now is
paramount to the future of British horseracing and to horseracing around the world.
There will be no revenue for governments to help themselves to in the future if British
horseracing is going to be allowed to gather pace on a downhill run to destruction.
Kind regards, yours sincerely Margaret
