Does my right hon. Friend realise that his reply will be very much welcomed in the North, particularly at Stockton, Sedgfield and Pontefract, where there will continue to be racing? Can he say whether it is intended now to have steeplechasing at Stockton and what is likely to happen to the Scottish Grand National? Will he discuss with the Levy Board to ensure that if the course at Liverpool is not available, the Grand National will be kept in the north of England?
