Grosvenor Sport named title sponsor for two fixtures at Newbury Racecourse

Key points: 

– Two National Hunt afternoon fixtures included in the title sponsorship 

– Marks first sponsorship by the brand of a race meeting 

Grosvenor Sport has secured title sponsorship of two horseracing fixtures, involving 10 races, at Newbury Racecourse in January 2025. 

These two National Hunt fixtures will be afternoon ones taking place on 9 and 15 January respectively, at the Newbury Racecourse, and will mark the very first sponsorship of a race meeting by the brand. 

However, on top of its offerings on horseracing via the sportsbook, Grosvenor Sport has also previously been involved within the sport itself, being the current yard sponsor of National Hunt trainer Harry Fry and Flat trainer Harry Eustace. 

Grosvenor Sport Sportsbook Director Simon Kew said: “We’re excited to team up with Newbury Racecourse for two fantastic racedays on the 9th and 15th of January, sponsoring a total of ten races. This marks our first venture into race sponsorships and highlights our ambition to develop a strong portfolio of events as we move into 2025. 

Good to know: Grosvenor Casinos partnered with Kambi Group in 2016 to launch a sportsbook for online and land-based players 

“Newbury is one of the country’s premier racetracks and we look forward to getting underway, as we continue to strengthen our connection to the sport which already includes our ambassador work with trainers Harry Fry and Harry Eustace.” 

Newbury Racecourse Head of Sales Jordan Coates added: “We are delighted to announce a new partnership with Grosvenor Sport as part of an expansion of their sponsorship portfolio within in British horseracing. We are looking forward to working closely with their team over the coming months.” 

In other horseracing news, Fitzdares last week opened its first northern location, namely the Fitzdares Club in Chester, while it also extended its principal sponsorship at Royal Windsor Racecourse.
