British Racecourses took 100% of the total vote to win Most Comprehensive Racecourse Coverage 2026 at the Touch Awards. Co-Founder and CEO Mark Dooley accepted the prize on 21 August 2026 in the Ebor Stand Suite at York Racecourse, North Yorkshire. The unanimous result came from three separate streams of evidence that reached the same conclusion.
British Racecourses finished the voting with the entire share of the total, leaving no rival with a single percentage point. For the Touch Awards, that turned Most Comprehensive Racecourse Coverage 2026 into an uncontested decision. Clients, community voters and panellists did not split between competing guides. They converged on one platform. Unanimity is the strongest signal an award gives.
British Racecourses was assessed through three streams that the Touch Awards combined into a single result. Independent research interviews gathered views from verified clients and customers. A community poll ran across Touch Awards channels, while an expert panel reviewed entrants against objective criteria. Each stream pointed to British Racecourses, and the Touch Awards confirms that no fee or sponsorship influenced the outcome. Agreement across separate methods is what makes 100% credible.
British Racecourses "stood out for its unwavering commitment to covering every active racecourse, regardless of size or profile," the Touch Awards Jury stated. The phrase about size and profile explains the scale of the backing. A guide that skipped minor venues would have divided opinion. British Racecourses left no active course uncatalogued, so critics had nothing to point at. Leave nothing out, and nobody votes against you.
