Lanark Racecourse Tote Tower

The tote tower at Lanark Racecourse has stood unused for some 35 years, which races stopped at the track. It's been a Grade B listed building since 1999, and was home to one of the first robot bookies long before computers entered the racing industry. But nobody's done anything to preserve the building, let alone restore it. So the tote tower is listed as At Risk. Personally, I'm intrigued to know what happened to the horse Proxima after it seemingly won the last race at Lanark...
