Pontefract, Ludlow and Beverley have become the latest racecourses to sign Prize Money Agreements with the Horsemen’s Group and British Horseracing Authority (BHA), increasing the total number of racecourses signing Agreements to 30.
Under the Agreements, racecourses have made a contractual commitment in relation to their own contribution to prize money for the next three years, with the amounts committed including a share of the betting-related media revenue generated by racecourses.
The terms of the contract are structured to enable all courses to sign the same Agreement, with the course in question choosing either the ‘Premier’ or ‘Standard’ Tier option. Pontefract has become the first small independent track to sign the more demanding ‘Premier’ Tier option.
Philip Freedman, Chairman of the Horsemen’s Group, said:
"By signing these Agreements, Pontefract, Ludlow and Beverley have confirmed what most horsemen already know that these are three courses that recognise the importance of a collaborative and positive relationship with those that provide the horses. It is to Pontefract’s credit that they have joined many larger courses in the Premier Tier, while Ludlow and Beverley will be making a significant increase to their contributions to prize money in 2014."
