RaceTech, the outside broadcast and technical services provider to British horseracing is
delighted to have extended its Outside Broadcast (OB) and raceday services partnership with
Chelmsford City Racecourse for a further five years.
A new all-inclusive agreement incorporates the full OB provision along with essential race day
services. Notably included in this agreement is the addition of a secondary branded
Racecourse TV output, supplementary to the main Racecourse TV output, focusing on
additional data and away racing. One other significant inclusion is the provision of a remotely
controlled Pan, Tilt, Zoom (PTZ) camera covering the horses parading in the paddock and the
post-race presentations, greatly enhancing the on-course customer experience.
Raceday integrity services such as starting stalls, public address and photo finish form an
important part of the Chelmsford City Racecourse new contract which runs up until October
2029.
John Bozza Chief Executive at RaceTech said, “We have enjoyed working with Chelmsford City
Racecourse for many years and are delighted to have renewed and expanded our partnership
in a new contract. The inclusion of the second Racecourse TV channel and the introduction of
remote camera systems is a meaningful step forward. We look forward to another five years
working with and supporting one of the busiest courses in the country.”
Neil Graham, Racecourse Director, at Chelmsford said, “We are delighted to continue our
relationship with RaceTech and look forward to developing, in particular, the new data and
away racing output. At Chelmsford City Racecourse, we are constantly striving to improve our
product for our customers and trust that these new innovations will keep the racecourse at
the forefront of British racing.”
