Betway has strengthened its position in Irish racing by becoming the new sponsor of Cork Racecourse’s Grade 3 Chase on Easter Sunday.
The valuable £40,000 prize will be run as the Betway Chase this weekend and will be broadcast live on Racing TV as well as on Ireland’s main public service broadcaster, RTÉ.
Having signed a three-year-deal in 2018, Betway is currently a main sponsor of the Galway Festival’s Super Saturday and were also sponsors at the 2018 Punchestown Winter Festival.
Betway’s Alan Alger said: “We are delighted to be the new sponsor of Cork’s Grade 3 Betway Chase this coming Easter Sunday. It’s a valuable prize that looks set to attract a talented field of runners.
“We’ve had success already in Ireland with sponsorships at the Galway Festival and Punchestown’s Winter Festival and are very much looking forward to another big day of racing at Cork this Easter Sunday.”
Andrew Hogan General Manager, said: “We are delighted to welcome Betway to Cork Racecourse Mallow for our Racing Home for Easter Festival as title sponsors of the feature race. We look forward to working with the Betway team and making this a very successful partnership.”
