On the BetMGM Clarence House Chase Raceday, BetMGM will sponsor six races, including the feature race, the Grade 1 BetMGM Clarence House Chase, BetMGM will also sponsor the Grade 2 BetMGM Mares’ Hurdle.

Commenting on the news, Director of UK, Ireland and Sponsorship Sam Behar said: “We are thrilled to support Ascot racecourse by sponsoring two major events in their racing calendar. Both racedays enhance our blossoming portfolio of horse racing sponsorships and further showcase our commitment to the long-term growth of the sport in this country.

“The BetMGM Challenge Cup Heritage Handicap is the most valuable seven-furlong handicap run in Britain so it’s fantastic to be the headline sponsor, while you just have to look at the calibre of past winners of the BetMGM Clarence House Chase to see the regard the two-mile contest is held in.”
