There definitely needs to be a distinction in the tagging to allow for different renders. The actual track they run on needs to be shown because, for horse racing in the UK, the site is often on common/public access land with rights of way across it. Knowing where the track is is a guide to navigation. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
