Daniel Craggs | The Jockey Club

Daniel Craggs has taken on the additional role of general manager at Nottingham Racecourse, starting Monday, April 13, alongside his existing position at Huntingdon Racecourse.

Craggs joined The Jockey Club in March 2024 as general manager at Huntingdon Racecourse, bringing experience across professional sport, including previous roles at Nottingham Forest Football Club and Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club, as well as in the leisure and third sectors. His expertise spans commercial growth, partnerships and venue development.

In this expanded role, Craggs will now oversee operations at both Huntingdon and Nottingham Racecourses, with a focus on driving commercial performance and raising the profile of Nottingham within its local market.

“I'm incredibly proud of what the team has achieved at Huntingdon and the progress we've made together,” said Craggs. “I'm now really looking forward to building on that experience in this new combined role, supporting both Huntingdon and Nottingham Racecourses.

“I know Nottingham well and understand the opportunity to further grow the racecourse's profile.”

The appointment forms part of The Jockey Club's evolving small racecourse operating model, designed to drive collaboration, efficiency and growth across its portfolio.
