I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'racecourse' is the definition.
(British racecourse)

'one may see robert burns for example' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'one' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is found within the answer.
'see' could be 'c' (the word for the letter, according to Chambers) and 'c' is located in the answer.
'example' could be 'as' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'as' is found in the answer.
A single letter 't' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'where' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
