Creating history in Sri Lankan horse racing, EFL, a leading conglomerate with interests in logistics, leisure and investments and a member of Expolanka Holdings PLC, will partner with Royal Turf Club (RTC) to hold the prestigious Governor’s Cup, the country’s oldest horse racing event.
Synonymous with speed, precision and exclusivity, the partnership made by EFL with RTC will promise a grand race day on the April 15 2021 as many entertainment events have been lined up in addition to the five main horse racing events.
The race day will be aptly named ‘RTC Governor’s Cup Powered by EFL’ in which the prestigious Governor’s Cup, Queen’s Cup, Mayor’s Cup and two more races will be showcased.
The country’s leading thoroughbred horses owned by the Edwards Stables, Jayaratne Stables, Fearless Stables and Stud Farm, Dynamic Stables and other individual owners will compete fiercely to grab honours at the five races to be held. Horse racing will join EFL’S fleet of sports they sponsor which include rugby, football and volleyball.
EFL is also associated with many CSR projects which ranges from supporting school sports to biodiversity conservation projects.
The partnership entered with EFL will undoubtedly benefit horse racing and its contributors in many ways for years to come, but the main focus of the pairing will be to provide an unforgettable day on the 15th of April and a memorable Governor’s Cup.
“EFL is happy to partner and support
such a prestigious event, not only as the main sponsor but also as an actively involved logistics partner bringing in our expertise to ensure the event runs seamlessly and memorable as planned,” stated Saif Yusoof, the Managing Director of EFL.
The Governor’s Cup 2021 will begin next Thursday at 10.00am.
The five races will be categorized from Class 1 to 5 in accordance to the ratings of the thoroughbred horses.
