CopyBet has announced an extensive new series of horse racing sponsorships for the remainder of 2025. They are partnering with The Jockey Club to sponsor multiple race days across major UK venues.
The new partnership grants CopyBet naming rights to 25 races across four fixtures. This marks another milestone in the company’s growing support for British racing.

These events form part of strategy to deepen its engagement with the UK’s horse racing community. They also aim to enhance its brand visibility across premium sporting venues.

CopyBet’s Commitment to British Racing

Mark Smith, Managing Director of CopyBet UK, described the sponsorship series as “a landmark moment for CopyBet’s growth and commitment to the sport in the UK.”
He added that, following the success of the CopyBet November Racing Weekend at Ascot in 2024, the company plans to further expand its sponsorship portfolio in 2026.
Daniel Glavin, Betting Partnerships Manager at The Jockey Club, welcomed the collaboration. He noted that it “underlines our shared ambition to elevate the racegoer experience and showcase the best of British racing.”

Extended Sports Partnerships and New Features

Beyond horse racing, CopyBet continues as the official front-of-shirt sponsor for Championship football club Queens Park Rangers.
The operator has also extended its brand ambassador partnership with Irish jockey Jonathan Burke for a third consecutive year. Burke, with over 500 career wins, will continue as Fergal O’Brien’s stable jockey. He will represent CopyBet throughout the National Hunt season.
Additionally, the operator has introduced free live streaming of all UK and Ireland races on its sportsbook. This improves accessibility for racing fans.

CopyBet Strengthens Integrity and Industry Partnerships

The operator has joined the Betting and Gaming Council (BGC) in June 2025. It became a member of the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) in May, integrating its data into the IBIA’s global monitoring network.
The move reflects the operator’s commitment to transparency, integrity, and responsible gambling practices within the UK market.
