The forgotten people behind the scenes .. Whom the riders can't do without..overcharged food at all shows and poor quality and a short period of time to eat ..

I was on of the unfortunate to get food poisoning from the canteen at Tipperary racecourse. The food in general for stable staff at these racecourses is not good enough and mostly over priced. Some canteens like the curragh are very good and order canteens have improved but most are still in the dark ages

Staff need to be looked after as they work so hard looking after the horses for the trainers and owners. Happy staff me happy horses and perhaps better performance .

The unsung heroes who keep the show on the road. It's our duty as a sport to look after them.

A lot more than the food at racecourses need to be addressed. But we need to start somewhere. Well done. Thank you

The staff deserve to have nutritious, fairly priced fresh meals available at all race courses.

Well over due that stable staff should be looked after. Alot of talent has left the industry over unfair pay and conditions.

Don't forget stud staff as without them there would be no race horses produced for stable staff to work with. All areas off the industry are very important.

Surely it's not a big job to provide stable staff with a decent healthy meal afew of the top racecourses have good food but the majority of the smaller tracks are a disgrace
