They brought this sport as a source of entertainment and a way to stay fit and established many racecourses in India which till date hold racing events of great quality. Majority of the nine racecourses are a gift of British Raj in India.

The credit for increasing popularity of this sport must be given to the Turf Authorities of India and Government of India who are taking pains to improve the standards of the sport to attract audiences at discounted rates. Even the Government of India seeking profits from this game has legalized betting on the Horse races by citizen of India.
