T&Cs apply Horse races in the UK will once again be televised using drones, following "appropriate amendments" made by the British Horseracing Authority. After a prolonged period of consultation with the Racecourse Association, Professional Jockeys Association and National Trainers Federation, drones will be permitted to cover races from distances of 50 and 30 metres. The move is part of an effort to make horse racing more accessible for fans who are unable to attend live events. Rod Street, head of Great British Racing, said drones were a "terrific broadcast innovation".
