ITV has announced a new deal which will keep coverage of most major UK horse racing meets with the broadcaster until the end of 2026.
The agreement - revealed to coincide with this year's Cheltenham Festival - covers over 100 days of live action and includes Crown Jewel events such as the Grand National, Cheltenham, Royal Ascot and the Derby.
ITV's director of sport Niall Sloane said: "This deal will take us to a decade of racing on ITV and we're delighted to be able to continue to bring to viewers well over 100 days of live coverage of this wonderful sport, including some of the most enjoyable, storied and thrilling events of each year.
"We look forward to continuing to work with Racecourse Media Group and our other partners within racing to bring audiences the very best racing has to offer in the coming years."
ITV's racing coverage airs live across ITV1, ITV4 and ITVX and also includes The Opening Show, which will continue under the new deal.
