HORSERACING FANS JOHN AND FIONA EATON CELEBRATE 25 YEARS OF MARRIAGE AT THE ROWLEY MILE

 

Lifelong horseracing fans John and Fiona Eaton took a trip down memory lane at Newmarket on Wednesday (19th October) when celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary at the Rowley Mile - a quarter of a century after holding their wedding reception at the historic venue.

 

The couple, who hail from Fakenham in Norfolk and are both annual members at Newmarket, enjoyed a day to remember at headquarters’ to commemorate their silver wedding with a meal in Champions Gallery restaurant.

 

In addition to dining in style the pair, who tied the knot on October 17, 1997, were presented with a race card signed by all the jockeys in attendance at the meeting along with receiving a bottle of champagne and a framed photograph.

And to make the occasion even more special, the couple celebrated backing all four of champion jockey William Buick’s winners on the seven race card.

 

“We had a cracking day. I’m a big fan of the boys in blue at Godolphin and Mr Buick had a brilliant day with Mr Appleby and I backed all four of their winners so it was also a good day financially,” said John.

 

“The racecourse were really kind to us. We had a copy of the race card signed by the jockeys to go alongside the one that we had signed 25 years ago.

 

“We also received a nice portrait photograph of us two together and to cap it all off we were given a bottle of champagne.”

 

 

Since 2019, our prices have remained unchanged, excluding the difficult years of COVID-19. Despite facing increasing costs, we've kept our prices steady for three consecutive years. However, to support our growing operational expenses, we've increased the badge price by £20 (54p per fixture) for the 2024 season. It's important to highlight that every annual badge we sell helps secure the future of British Racing. As the largest commercial horse racing organization in the UK, The Jockey Club owns renowned racecourses like Aintree, Cheltenham, and Epsom Downs. All profits are reinvested back into the sport, benefiting the industry as a whole.

Being a Newmarket Annual Badge Holder is not just about attending 37 racedays at the iconic Newmarket Racecourses. It's about the satisfaction of guaranteed entry, regardless of sell-outs. It's about connecting with fellow racing enthusiasts, making new friends, and indulging in the sport you love. Our annual badges also grant access to thrilling racing festivals and the famous Newmarket Nights, featuring exhilarating racing followed by unforgettable concerts by renowned artists such as Kylie Minogue and Bryan Adams.

But that's not all. We offer a range of options to suit different preferences. Our Corporate badges are transferrable, making them a perfect incentive for staff, clients, friends, and family. With a minimum package of four badges, the Corporate experience starts at £2160 (inc. VAT). For those aged between 18 and 24 who enjoy both racing and music, our Bunbury badges offer an amazing opportunity to spend quality time with friends in a fantastic location, starting from £350 (inc.

Testimonials

We really enjoy racing at Newmarket and have bought Annual Badges for 23 years. We like that we get the opportunity to go to other racecourses on the reciprocal days, probably some you wouldn’t have attended before. We always find the staff very friendly, cheerful, and helpful. It's no problem for them to sort out any queries we may have in a pleasant way. We would highly recommend buying an Annual Badge.

Alan & Barbara Plested - Annual Badge Holder

We are big racing fans and have been Annual Badge Holders for many years. We are always looked after well by Neil and his staff in the badge holder facilities. Having an Annual Badge means you can pop in to watch a couple of races or stay for the whole event, you have the choice. If you are looking for an affordable way to attend racing, I would suggest you purchase a Newmarket Annual Badge.

Tom Bridges - Annual Badge Holder

We were eager to renew our Annual Badges in anticipation of another super year of entertainment, super facilities and excellent attention from the friendly team at Newmarket. We really enjoy being Annual Badge Holders and feel they are excellent value for money.
