Markopoulo Park, the home base for racing in Greece, is to close.

Racing in Greece has been run over recent years by Horse Racing S.A. which issue a press release at the end of January regarding the closure.

It seems that not only has the company been running this enterprise at a loss over the last few years, the thoroughbred population of Greece has dropped to below the 300 required to sustain a racing population.
