Ascot And Howden Renew Partnership For Another Five Years

Howden and Ascot have renewed their partnership for another five years until 2030, the racecourse announced on Thursday.

The partnership, which began in 2021, underscores both organisations' commitment to excellence in horse racing and the broader equine industry and ensures continued collaboration across all Ascot racedays, with Howden's branding prominently featured around Ascot Racecourse, including throughout Royal Ascot. The Howden Christmas Racing Weekend has also become a highlight of the festive season, featuring prominent races such as the G1 Howden Long Walk Hurdle and the G2 Howden Noel Novices' Chase.

Felicity Barnard, CEO, Ascot Racecourse, said, “We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Howden, a company that shares our passion for horse racing and commitment to excellence. We look forward to continuing this successful collaboration and exploring new opportunities together over the next five years.”

David Howden CBE, CEO, Howden, added, “I'm absolutely delighted that we're renewing our partnership with Ascot Racecourse – the best of British and the supreme pinnacle of the racing world. I couldn't be more excited to extend this glorious relationship and continue bringing the thrills, the magic and the joy to racegoers for another five years.”
