Retraining of Racehorses will receive £5,000 from Ascot Racecourse Supports for every Ryan Moore winner at Royal Ascot 2024, the racecourse announced on Friday. A 10-time leading rider at the meeting with 79 winners overall, Moore had six winners in 2023 and seven the year prior.
Moore, a racing ambassador for Ascot Racecourse Supports, said, “I'm really pleased to be helping Ascot this year. Ascot Racecourse Supports are very kindly donating £5,000 for any winner I ride at Royal Ascot, and hopefully we can raise some money.
“Royal Ascot, for me it's the highlight of the British racing season, and it's probably the best race meeting in the world. Five days of very competitive races. It's very hard to win there. I look forward to it every year. I would say it's my favourite meeting and I've been very fortunate to be to have been a part of it for so long.
“Riding winners at Ascot is very hard. It took me a few attempts to ride my first one and I've been lucky to ride for some of the biggest trainers in Britain and Ireland and I'm fortunate to have ridden a lot of winners there now, and really I'm always just looking forward to the next one and you don't know if it's definitely going to come, so hopefully we just try to keep ticking them off.”
