Local housebuilder Dandara recently showed its support to Ffos Las Racecourse by sponsoring a race at its Winter race day on Wednesday 20th November, named after its development, Golwg Gwendraeth, located next to the racecourse.
The 'Golwg Gwendraeth Maiden Stakes' race saw 14 jockeys take part, and just over 1000 racegoers in attendance. As well as Dandara’s sponsored race, attendees had the chance to bet on seven other races throughout the day whilst enjoying food stalls and music.
As part of its ongoing commitment to the local community, Dandara was the title sponsor of one of the races for the day, which brought local families and horseracing enthusiasts together. Local personality, Deryc Rees presented the trophy to the winning owners.
Sara Taylor, Sales Director at Dandara Wales & West, commented: “We know how beloved the Ffos Las Racecourse is and that’s why we are so proud to be part of one of its race days this year. It was amazing to see the community come together and cheer on the racegoers. Congratulations to all the winners, and to those who participated, making it a memorable and exciting occasion for us all.”
Kevin Hire, General Manager at Ffos Las Racecourse, added: “The excitement race days bring to the local community is incredible. It was a pleasure to have Dandara sponsor the ‘Golwg Gwendraeth Maiden Stakes’, which was such a success, and hope everyone had a great day!”
