McCoy odds-on UK Jockey Championship

McCoy odds-on for the Hennessy Festival Racing UK Jockey Championship

Racing UK offering one-month free trial to the horseracing channel

AP McCoy has been installed as 5-6 favourite by Sky Bet for the Hennessy Festival Racing UK Jockey Championship at Newbury Racecourse, which gets underway tomorrow.

Racing UK is delighted to sponsor the championship for the first time, which will be determined by the jockey who rides the most number of winners over the three days. In the event of a tie, it will be settled by seconds and then thirds.

The leading rider throughout the bet365-sponsored Festival will be distinguishable by wearing the Racing UK blue and white armband.

Clive Cottrell, Racing UK’s Marketing Director, said:

“We are delighted to sponsor the Hennessy Festival Racing UK Jockey Championship given our long-standing support of the jockeys, who are the real ambassadors for the sport.”

Viewers can watch all the bet365 Hennessy Festival on Racing UK (Sky 432) and this is the last chance to take up a free one-month trial of the leading horseracing channel. Visit RacingUK free trial or call 0845 111 4411 and use promo code/reference RUK1MF.
