York races to be beamed live for betting
The Hong Kong Jockey Club will simulcast three days of York’s Ebor Festival from Wednesday, 17 August to Friday, 19 August.
York’s summer festival is the focal point of British racing in August. The meeting kicks off on 17 August with the Group One International Stakes, which for the first time in 2020, has been honored as the highest rated race in the world. The meeting also features the Yorkshire Oaks for 3yo+ fillies and mares, the Nunthorpe Stakes for 2yo+ sprinters, backed up by other key races such as the Gimcrack Stakes for 2yo male and the Great Voltigeur Stakes – a major pointer for the season’s final Classic St Leger next month.
