Racing-mad Jeff Randall, the former Daily Telegraph columnist and Sky News presenter, has been appointed as a non-executive director of Sandown Park racecourse.
He is, he says, "delighted" at securing the role. "Thanks to my late father, I was introduced to the sport in the early 1970s and it has been a source of huge enjoyment ever since.
"Now, through my involvement with the Jockey Club, I have a chance to give something back. I'm grateful for the opportunity."
His appointment to the Esher racecourse is in addition to his non-executive directorship with Babcock International.
