Saturday’s Randox Grand National at Aintree will be available to watch in all corners of the globe – and above it – with live coverage of the world’s most famous Jumps race also available on airlines.
Working with The Jockey Club, which owns and operates Aintree Racecourse and stages the Randox Grand National, Racecourse Media Group (RMG) and HBA Media have secured 30 broadcasters, including Sport 24, who will broadcast the race on 27 airlines and cruise lines.
For the first time, India’s leading OTT sports streaming platform, Fancode, will broadcast all three days of the Randox Grand National Festival while leading broadcast networks such as Viaplay (pan Europe), Setanta (Balkans and Eurasia), Polsat (Poland) and WeDoTV (Germany, Switzerland, Austria) will showcase the fixture in Europe. SuperSport and ESPN Star+ will guarantee pan-regional live coverage across Africa, and South America and the Caribbean.
In the UK the Randox Grand National will be broadcast on ITV – which pulled in an audience of 7.5m in 2022 – while Virgin Media will screen the race in Ireland. RMG’s own TV channel, Racing TV, will also show the race in homes and 10,000 pubs in UK and Ireland.
CNN will cover the race for its flagship World Sport programme, which reaches over 370 million households, while Trans World Sport, the leading global sports magazine programme, will provide added exposure. Coverage of the race will also be widely available to news outlets across the world via Reuters and SNTV.
Dickon White, The Jockey Club’s Regional Director for the North West, said: “The wide range of interest from international broadcasters further endorses the Randox Grand National’s status as the world’s most famous Jumps race, if not the most famous horse race anywhere on the planet.
