Watch: "They just do not understand" - Affordability checks threaten racing's future
Affordability checks were under the microscope on this week's Luck On Sunday, as Nick Luck is joined in the studio by Louie French MP, online gambling analyst Dan Waugh, and the Racing Post's Lee Mottershead, with the BHA's Brant Dunshae joining remotely.
Dunshae warns of the potentially disastrous consequences the proposed checks could have on British horse racing — and why he believes those behind them "just do not understand" the sport.
Louie French lays bare the complete lack of communication coming from the Gambling Commission, questioning why key information isn't even being shared with the shadow minister.
Plus, the panel discuss the role bookmakers must play in creating a gambling environment that works for everyone — starting with an end to account closures.
