RaceTech the outside broadcast and technical services provider to British horseracing has
renewed its service agreement contracts with Jockey Club Racecourses (JCR).
A new multi-year service agreement is in place from October 2024 with Jockey Club
Racecourses covering all fixtures at its 15 racecourses including several major festivals such
as The Cheltenham Festival, The Randox Grand National at Aintree and The Betfred Derby at
Epsom Downs. The new contract consists of standard and additional Raceday services running
until 2029.
RaceTech service agreements are tailored to suit, supplying essential and supplementary
Raceday services, such as the provision of photo finish, video brochures, starting stalls, race
timing, public address and racecourse TV production. The service agreements also cover the
provision of goods and services outside of a Raceday, supporting racecourse upgrades and
projects.
John Bozza, Chief Executive at RaceTech said, “We are delighted to renew our service
agreement with JCR. We enjoy good relationships with the teams across all the JCR
racecourses, as we have for many years. It is a pleasure to continue to provide these services
and work with the tracks to develop their on-course technology and therefore enhance the
customer experience.”
Amy Starkey, Managing Director of Jockey Club Racecourses, added, “RaceTech play a huge
role in helping us deliver nearly 350 fixtures a year, large and small, and are responsible for
so much of what goes on behind the scenes.
“Many racegoers might not appreciate just how many aspects of a Raceday the team at
RaceTech are responsible for and how closely our teams work with theirs. We’re delighted
that this partnership is continuing.”
