Fontwell Park supports national campaign
Fontwell Park is the final racecourse in Sussex to take part in the Brooke's Courses for Horses campaign '“ a national fundraising initiative. Sussex racecourses, including Plumpton, Brighton and Lingfield Park, have already raised more than 3,500 this year as part of this campaign, and it is hoped that Fontwell Park will boost that figure.
The Brooke hopes to raise tens of thousands of pounds after inviting all of the UK's 59 racecourses to sign up to its Courses for Horses Racecourse Club. Furthermore Betfair '“ the UK's leading online sports betting exchange '“ has generously pledged to match every pound generated by each of the racecourses as the Brooke's headline Courses for Horses sponsor.
