CopyBet reveals Jonathan Burke as first-ever racing ambassador

CopyBet has named Irish jockey Jonathan Burke as its inaugural racing ambassador. 

With over 200 career wins to his name, the 27-year-old will be sporting the gambling company’s logo on his racing kit. 

Burke will also be providing content on all the major horse racing festivals for CopyBet’s customers, as well as hosting Q&A sessions on social media to improve the platform’s audience engagement.

Anton Ivanov, Business Development Director for CopyBet UK, commented: “Jonathan is an excellent up-and-coming jockey with a big future, and we are delighted to have him on board as our first ever racing ambassador. We look forward to working with Jonathan and wish him every success for the season.”

A recent entrant into the UK betting scene, CopyBet enables players to access several sports betting tipsters via its platform. Users can then copy these exact tips into their betslip and back these – a unique feature in the industry.

The collaboration with Burke also follows CopyBet introducing horse racing markets to its UK sportsbook.

“I am delighted to have signed as CopyBet’s racing ambassador and look forward to working with the team to provide customers with fun content throughout the season,” added Burke on his new ambassador role. 

“With another great season of jump racing ahead, there is so much for horse racing fans to get excited about and I look forward to improving on my best-ever season last time out.”

In recent months, CopyBet has also signed former Republic of Ireland and Premier League star Shay Given as its first ever brand ambassador.

The operator now provides its bettors with weekly insights from Given, surrounding the world of football and the latest competitions.
