Racing League has announced that the Tote will be the Official Sponsor for the 2024 season which begins this evening at Yarmouth.
This partnership marks a significant milestone for both organisations, as both work towards opening the sport to new audiences, shining a spotlight on the racing world and all of the equine and human talent within it.
Racing League 2024 will feature six consecutive Thursday evening meetings across popular UK racecourses: Yarmouth, Wolverhampton, Chepstow, Windsor, Newcastle, and Southwell. The competition will involve seven teams vying for the championship across 42 races, with total prize money exceeding £2 million.
Dave Hammond, UK Commercial Director at Tote Group, said: "Partnering with Racing League as Official Sponsor for 2024 is a great opportunity for Tote. We believe this collaboration allow us to support innovative racing with excellent prize money for participants and exciting action on the track for racing fans. The Tote is offering guaranteed £50,000 Placepots at every Racing League meeting, along with Tote Guarantee making sure we’re bringing the value for every Tote customer, betting on course, online or via the Tote App.”
Jeremy Wray, CEO of Racing League, added: “This is a great partnership for Racing League. Our competitive large field handicaps are best suited by the Tote’s betting products - two years ago the second ever largest Tote Placepot dividend of £129,858 was achieved at a Racing League meeting - let’s see if we can beat that this year!”
Racing League has gained tremendous support from owners, trainers and jockeys, with a record number of stables registered for the 2024 competition. This partnership with Tote is expected to further elevate the brilliant profile of the Racing League and build on the success of previous seasons.
