A fortnight after unveiling 32Red as the new sponsor of the King George VI Chase at Kempton, Jockey Club Racecourses has announced a deal with another authorised betting partner.

The racecourse group revealed 188Bet as the new backer of the Grade 2 Old Roan Chase at Aintree in October, the Grade 2 Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter in November and of next Saturday's Prelude Hurdle at Market Rasen.

The online bookmaker has agreed a package of 50 race sponsorships across the group, running from this month through until January 2017 and covering 25 races at Exeter and another 25 spread around the other tracks.
