COVID-19 Update 
 
Given the current Government guidance regarding the ongoing pandemic, 
shareholders will not be able to attend these meetings in person. Therefore, 
for as long as the current restrictions remain in place, the meetings will take 
place as planned, but will only be attended by the minimum number of people 
legally required. 
 
However, there will be an opportunity for shareholders to ask questions from 
10-30am on Friday 11th September using a video conferencing service. In order 
to facilitate this process please can you advise 
cricketts@newburyracecourse.co.uk of your intention to join this session as 
well as providing a copy of any question(s) you may have in advance, to be 
received by 10am on Tuesday 8th September. A link to the video conferencing 
platform will then be provided once your intention is received. 
 
Details on how you can vote by proxy at the Accounts Meeting are set out in the 
Notice. The Board therefore requests that shareholders appoint the Chairman of 
the meeting as a proxy and provide their voting responses in advance of the 
Accounts Meeting. Proxies already completed and votes already cast 
electronically in respect of the AGM remain valid for the reconvened meeting. 
 
Any further information will be made available through a public announcement 
disseminated via a regulatory information service (RIS) - available through the
