A race course where four horses died in a single day has been deemed safe after an inspection by the British Horseracing Authority. The BHA sent a team of course inspectors to Musselburgh racecourse in East Lothian after the deaths of the animals in individual incidents on Monday. Musselburgh Racecourse has been deemed to be safe for racing and in excellent condition following an inspection by racing’s governing body, The British Horse Racing Authority. “The BHA are in the process of fully investigating the circumstances surrounding the four fatalities at Musselburgh on Monday. “Today’s course inspection as part of that investigation has been completed and does not suggest there is any reason why Monday’s fixture cannot go ahead.”- Press Association
