UK bookmaker Fitzdares has announced a new two-year partnership with Jamie Snowden Racing, one of the most respected and in-form operations in British National Hunt racing.
The partnership brings together two brands united by a shared commitment to heritage, personal service and excellence. Both Fitzdares and Jamie Snowden Racing have built their reputations on traditional values, long-standing relationships and a relentless focus on delivering the highest standards for their members, owners and racing supporters.
Based at historic Folly House in Lambourn, the beating heart of British racing in Berkshire, Jamie Snowden has established himself as one of the sport's leading trainers.
Following a record-breaking 2025/26 campaign, where Snowden closed the season in 9th position in the championship, with just shy of £1.2m in prizemoney operating at a remarkable 25% strike rate, the highest of any trainer in the top 30 of the National Hunt Trainers' Championship. One of the many highlights last season included winning the Grade 1 Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival with Johnny's Jury.
The current season has started well, with 10 winners on the board in the first month, and the future is looking bright with more talented recruits being sourced over the summer.
A former Captain in the British Army, Snowden has trained more than 560 winners from his Lambourn yard and is entrusted with horses carrying the Royal silks of Their Majesties The King and Queen, including the promising Fine Shot.
The partnership comes at an exciting time for Jamie Snowden Racing, with continued investment in facilities and yard expansion, supporting a growing string of horses and an increasingly prominent position within British jump racing.
Together, Fitzdares and Jamie Snowden Racing will collaborate on a series of exclusive owner and member experiences, behind-the-scenes content and racing activations throughout the National Hunt season, bringing racing fans closer to one of the most exciting yards in the country.
Hermione Drummond Moray (Head of Sponsorships, Fitzdares): "We couldn't be happier to join forces with Jamie Snowden Racing following a record-breaking season for the yard. Jamie brings passion, expertise and an infectious enthusiasm to the sport, qualities that align perfectly with the Fitzdares and our members, as we double down on our commitment to racing.
Jamie's understated and quintessentially British approach belie his ambition and talent, and we believe his yard to be the most exciting partnership opportunity in National Hunt racing. With the yard expanding, a growing roster of owners, and another Cheltenham Festival success to his name, we believe Jamie is poised to make an even greater impact on the sport in the years ahead."
Jamie Snowden: "We had a wonderful relationship with our previous sponsor over the last few years and we're incredibly grateful for everything they've done for us. But following a record-breaking season, Fitzdares approached us with an opportunity that felt like a perfect fit.
"There are a lot of similarities between Jamie Snowden Racing and Fitzdares. We're both built on relationships, trust and delivering a personal experience, whether that's for owners, members or racing fans. The synergy between the two brands was obvious from our very first conversations. It's an exciting time for the yard as we continue to expand and welcome more horses, and I'm delighted to be partnering with a brand that shares our values and passion for racing."
