Removed sentence[edit]

I removed the following. Not only was the word "unique" misused, but, off the top of my head, the racecourse at Worcester is also in the city.

The racecourse is unique in that it is the second only racecourse in the UK along with York that lies within a city.

The Roodee and the modern racecourse are two different entities[edit]

The Roodee is the area which now has a racecourse. These two topics need seperating. It's like have one article for Deva Victrix and Chester. They occupy the same site but are patently different.146.199.57.209 (talk) 22:56, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
