Finally ! Racetracks are once again entitled to open their doors to the public from this Saturday 11 July. Two months after the return of horses and socio-professionals to the racetracks, it is the turn of another major player in the sector to return to the spans of racetracks. Turfists, bettors or simple enthusiasts were eagerly awaiting this, especially since the summer season has started on many ski runs in the provinces, where vacationers do not hesitate to have a good time with family or friends.
The fact is that certain rules remain in the state, as specified in Decree No. 2020-860 of July 10, 2020 prescribing the general measures necessary to deal with the Covid-19 epidemic in the territories exited from the state health emergency and in those where it was continued.
The first spectators not put off by the measurement
Thus, the National Federation of Horse Racing, LeTrot and France Galop published a press release in which it is explained in particular "the wearing of the mask will be compulsory until further notice for all persons present in the grounds of racetracks".
The decree allowing the reopening of racetracks to the public
A measure which did not seem to put off the first spectators present on the Hippodrome of Enghien this Saturday noon, while some of them started to meet professionals and that the start of the first test of the program would not be long to be validated.
