Costing £2,590 for two years, membership includes a share in any prize money won, organised stable visits and full membership benefits of Cheltenham, including the world-famous Festival in March.

Familiar names who have already signed up to be part of the new syndicate include the face of ITV Racing Ed Chamberlin, Countryfile presenter Adam Henson, sports presenter Jill Douglas and England cricket star Jonny Bairstow.
Sophia Dale, The Jockey Club communications manager, said: “As a region we have talked about doing this syndicate for a while and we are pleased to have been able to bring it to life.
“I know that there are plenty of people who have already joined up that have never experienced the excitement of owning a racehorse before and Final Choice’s win on New Year’s Eve was a very special for all the members.
“To have the added benefits of going to see the horses in their stables and on the racecourse, keep up to date with the latest stable news and to be able to go to all four racecourses as Annual Members ensures that is really is a great package.”
