Animal rights activists disrupt greyhound race
Animal Rising said members had entered the track and climbed scaffolding around a big screen.
A spokesperson said it had been "mounting a significant policing operation for the event following threats in recent weeks from Animal Rising activists, who have warned they plan to disrupt it". Keith Boothby, managing director of the course, said previously that the "unlawful and reckless intentions" had "already come at a significant cost to our operation".
