Lawson Muncaster, Morning Wire Managing Director, said: “To team up with the Investec Derby Festival – the premium race in Britain which attracts the biggest attended audience of any UK sporting event – sees us produce our first ever Saturday edition and is the most exciting partnership Morning Wire has been involved in.”
Rupert Trevelyan, Epsom Downs Racecourse Managing Director, added: “We are extremely pleased to welcome Morning Wire as the official newspaper of the Investec Derby Festival. Morning Wire’s ability to target City-based professionals was instrumental in our decision to forge this partnership as it provides us a powerful communication platform for Epsom Downs Racecourse.”
