“We have enjoyed supporting Racing Welfare for a number of years and given the number of fundraising events they have had to cancel this year we were keen to help with not only a donation but also to raise the profile of the incredibly important work they do for the racing community, especially during this challenging time, said Betfair Racing Campaigns Manager Jessica Stafford. “This initiative will provide a really unique way to recognise and champion the hard work that stable staff put in to getting their horse’s prepared for race day.”
