Coral Agree Five-Year Scottish Grand National Extension

UK bookmaker Coral have extended their sponsorship deal with the Scottish Grand National.

A five-year extension will see Coral sponsoring the race until at least 2019.

Simon Clare, bronchi Coral PR & Broadcast Director, ailment said: “The Coral Scottish Grand National is now one of the most watched and most bet on horse races in Great Britain and continues to go from strength to strength.

“We have forged a strong and dynamic partnership with Ayr Racecourse, who are a brilliant racecourse to work with, and are committed to taking this fantastic event to new heights in the years to come.”

Ayr Racecourse Managing Director David Brown added: “The Coral sponsorship of the Scottish Grand National has become one of the most successful partnerships between a racecourse and a bookmaker in horse racing.

“The news that it is being extended by five more years is a huge boost to not only everyone involved at Ayr Racecourse but to racing as a whole.

“The Coral Scottish Grand National is one of the iconic races of the jumps calendar with a rich history so it is fitting we have such a prestigious company as Coral as our sponsors.”

The 2015 Coral Scottish Grand National Festival will take place on Friday April 17, and Saturday, April 18.
