RACEGOERS were urged to help find horse-lover Claudia Lawrence when a three-minute film was shown on giant screens at York Racecourse.

The missing York chef, who has not been seen since March 18, was a regular visitor to York races.

Martin Dales, a friend and spokesman for Claudia’s father, Peter Lawrence, said: “She has ridden horses since she was very young and her own horse died fairly recently.”
