Betfair will be back at Cheltenham racecourse as a sponsor for two days of top class horse racing in the New Year.

Punters can enjoy a thrilling line-up of Betfair-sponsored races at Cheltenham’s New Year’s Day meeting and Festival Trials Day on 25 January.

On New Year’s Day, Betfair will partner with Cheltenham for The Betfair Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 2), The Betfair Exchange Handicap Chase (Class 1) (Premier Handicap) and The best odds on the Betfair Exchange Handicap Hurdle Race (Class 2).

On Saturday 25 January, for Festival Trials Day, Betfair will sponsor The Betfair Exchange Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 1) (Premier Handicap) and The Betfair Cotswold Steeple Chase (Class 1) (Grade 2).

The latter race is the feature race of Festival Trials Day. It boasts a rich history, producing fantastic renewals over the years with strong winners such as Neptune Collonges, Frodon, and 2024 winner Capodanno for the Willie Mullins team.

Both meetings will be fascinating in their own right but they will also set the stage for the drama and excitement of the 2025 Cheltenham Festival.

Richard Hayward, Managing Director Betfair, said: “It’s great to see Betfair back sponsoring at the Home of Jump Racing. This sponsorship is part of our ongoing commitment to supporting the racing industry and adding these races to our existing portfolio helps us create a well-defined sponsorship story throughout the National Hunt season. Starting with the G1 Betfair Chase in November, we now have major racedays every month up to the Festival in March.”

Dan Glavin, Bookmaker Partnerships Manager for The Jockey Club, said: “It’s fantastic to have Betfair back at Cheltenham as the sponsor of these two racedays. Flutter has an ongoing commitment to racing and we’re delighted that they have continued to show their support with these popular fixtures.”

The rollout of mandatory carded play at the casino marks the delivery of a major recommendation from the Perth Casino Royal Commission.

From 1 December, all patrons using electronic gaming machines at the Crown Perth Casino will need to use a personalised membership card that sets time and loss limits.

The card, which will be linked to each player’s account, will cap play at 12 hours a day and 28 hours a week, and include mandatory breaks every three hours.

Players can adjust their own limits within these caps but any increase to limits will take effect only after a seven-day cooling-off period. Requests to decrease loss limits are applied immediately.

Existing members will need to update their cards, while new players can sign up, taking a photo and setting their limits with the help of casino staff.

The system provides on-screen tracking and monthly activity statements to help players monitor their spending. It also allows the casino to identify risky behaviour and offer support when needed.

The introduction of carded play represents a major step towards reducing the risk of gambling harm at the casino.
