Doncaster Racecourse has teamed up with The Good Racing Co, a unique fundraising business, to add more prizes in the “Horsebox Hotel” competition for the Betfred St Leger Festival - aiming to raise some much-needed funds for the MND Association.

The competition was launched last week, with the help of Jamie Jones-Buchanan - friend and former teammate of Rob Burrow - and gives one lucky winner and guest the chance to win a night’s stay at the exclusive “Horsebox Hotel”. This is a stunning converted vintage horsebox located right near the heart of the action complete with beds, cooking equipment and outdoor furniture, during the Betfred St Leger Festival.
