Ayr Wins Award For Fourth Year In A Row
11/12/07
AYR Racecourse has made it four in a row by being voted Racecourse of the Year 2007 for Scotland and the North East by The Racegoers Club.

The award comes as Ayr prepares to open even more new facilities in 2008. Work has begun on a £3.5 million Grandstand Bar which will cater for up to 3000 people on racedays and an Owners Bar incorporating a restaurant and with access to a betting shop. Not only will the latter be open to owners and trainers but also those who wish to take out Owners Club Membership.
The honour from The Racegoers Club is particularly pleasing for those associated with Ayr as the Club has 6,500 members who are all avid racegoers. Ayr has previously won the award 13 times since 1990.
William Gorol, General Manager of Ayr Racecourse, said: “I was delighted to receive this news. It is proof that the improvements we are making are appreciated by members of the Racegoers Club who are in my eyes aficionados the sport.
“To win it four times in a row is especially pleasing and I’d like to thank everyone who voted for us.”
