The contract will also cover the principal event of the season, the Saudi Cup, which is pencilled for 20 February. The Saudi Cup, the world’s most valuable horse race, with a $20 million prize fund and a $10 million cheque to be handed to the winner, will be broadcast live on SIS.
“We’re delighted to be extending our partnership with The Saudi Cup and distributing live pictures and data from the best of Saudi Arabian racing, including the world’s most valuable race,” commented Will Morris, Head of International Horse Racing at SIS.
