    No volume
    Most euro books take basically zero action on USA horses other than a big race or betfair of course

    Time zones one of reasons

    UK horse racing is partly funded by bookmakers. Until last week, that only included bookies based here. Last week, it was changed to include offshore bookies.

    They may have stopped offering it to avoid the levy...
