What's really interesting is the fact that the judge granting this unique injunction (being against 'persons unknown' and dispensing with the need for personal service by the courts) had severe misgivings prior to issuing it. From a report on October 3rd:

'But His Honour Judge Owen said he had concerns about the level of power being sought with the injunction.
He said: "I'm concerned anyone standing at the side watching these races take place could be wrongly arrested and then things could get out of hand.
"I'm concerned that such a draconian order is required from the court."'
