This coming Saturday and Sunday, BetMGM is injecting a dose of Sin City into the equestrian competitions at Newcastle Racecourse.
Emceed by the engaging Justin Lockwood, the affair guarantees an exhilarating fusion of horse racing and casino thrills, particularly for those fortunate enough to secure VIP access.
Eager to join the fun? Any adult with the BetMGM application has an opportunity to win these sought-after passes, with additional chances available by visiting BetMGM’s social media platforms.
Imagine yourself unwinding in an opulent lounge overlooking the saddling enclosure, savoring complimentary beverages. But there’s more! BetMGM is going above and beyond with live musical performances, astonishing illusions, and the chance to test your fortune at casino tables and even a virtual racing experience.
Feeling lucky? Participants who demonstrate their prowess at blackjack and roulette could depart with a £100 (approximately $126) credit for STK, a renowned steakhouse. And as a memento of this remarkable day, every attendee entering the lounge will receive a fashionable BetMGM neck scarf.
Sam Behar, BetMGM’s UK Director, encapsulated the anticipation: “We are eager to greet racing aficionados at the BetMGM lounge during the Fighting Fifth this weekend, where they can immerse themselves in the excitement of the races alongside quintessential Vegas entertainment.”
He continued, “There’s no finer location to witness the ‘Pitman’s Derby’ than from our exclusive lounge. It’s poised to be an unforgettable occasion for racing devotees as we transport the essence of Las Vegas to the center of Newcastle.”
The esteemed two-mile hurdle contest, known as The Fighting Fifth Hurdle, takes place each year at the Newcastle Racecourse.
Founded in 1969, the competition pays homage to a renowned British Army unit, the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers.
Serving as the initial stage of the Triple Crown of Hurdling, it currently receives backing from BetMGM, a well-known entity in the realm of equestrian racing.
This isn’t BetMGM’s sole endeavor in Newcastle this year. The organization also revealed a long-term collaboration with Newcastle United Football Club, strengthening its standing within the city.
