I have ridden racehorses in Newmarket for over 40 years and know the dangers of this development to them. The noise they make which we cannot always hear, they do, this frightens them and will cause serious accidents to both horse and rider. The area you plan to develop is where we exercise our horses for a quiet, relaxing exercise - away from traffic and the hub-bub of the Heath. It will be a serious loss to the horse racing industry if the Sunnica development goes ahead. Combined with all the other concerns how can this ever be allowed. It is on prime farmland used at present for growing vegetables - this region is famous for its top quality soil. Pure madness to take all this land out of production of food - we need to be more self sufficient as a country not less.
