I seem to recall Brighton Rock referred to racecourse fighting in the 1930’s.

Aah, so that's OK then.

First sunny weekend of the year, cheap plonk, common people and over inflated ego’s, the perfect storm

This brawling at race tracks is becoming more and more commonplace. It never used to happen so I wonder why it’s so prevalent now?

I would say it's because of a decline in acceptable behaviour, coupled with moral compasses that have veered way off course, but that would make me sound like a grumpy old woman
