The multiple Grade 1-winning trainer, known for stars such as Cole Harden and La Bague Au Roi, will provide regular updates from his Lambourn yard throughout the Jumps season with blogs and video content.
Greatrex said:
Fairplay is a really good concept, and I was really taken by it. As soon as I met Billy, I thought ‘wow!’, I just love his enthusiasm. I’m very excited!
I think from our side, the partnership will allow us to showcase the yard, and through regular blogs and content we can show exactly what we do, from riding out, showing people how to swim horses and treadmilling. We’ve got an excellent young team here and I’m really pleased that with Fairplay we can showcase this.
I’m very confident that we can grow alongside Fairplay – we’ve got a really nice bunch of young horses, as well as established ones, and I think with this partnership we can grow together.
Bill Gowing, Founder and Managing Director at Fairplay, said:
There’s no hiding from the fact that British racing is facing a challenging period. Rising costs, increased regulation and changing market conditions mean it’s more important than ever that businesses with a genuine passion for the sport continue to invest in it.
That’s exactly why partnering with Warren Greatrex Racing was such a natural decision for us. Warren has built a yard that’s founded on hard work, integrity and ambition – values that are central to Fairplay as a business. We’re both committed to doing things the right way, building for the long term and always striving to improve.
While others may be reducing their involvement in the sport, we see this as the right time to step forward. We firmly believe horse racing remains one of Britain’s great sporting institutions, with a passionate and loyal following, and we’re committed to playing our part in supporting its future.
We’re excited to work alongside Warren and his team throughout the season, giving our customers a closer connection to the stable and helping tell the stories that make National Hunt racing so special. We see this as the beginning of a long-term partnership, and we’re looking forward to celebrating plenty of success together.
Fairplay began as a social peer-to-peer betting platform in 2023, with sportsbook Fairplay Bet launching following the award of a sportsbook licence.
Fairplay also have an on-course presence, taking up a pitch at Glorious Goodwood for the first time this year, and plan to acquire a Cheltenham pitch and Newbury National Hunt pitch for the 2026/27 season
