Insuring greatness at Royal Ascot 2026

British heritage meets great performance

There's nothing quite like Royal Ascot. That's why we're proud to be their Official Insurance Partner for the sixth year in a row. We're both British-born with global reach – and a shared belief that greatness is never left to chance.

Our partnership with Ascot Racecourse launched at Royal Ascot in 2021, spurred on by a world-class Equine team and our founder David Howden’s love of horses. 

Why Howden?

Like Ascot, horse racing is a sport we're passionate about and with which we have strong ties. Thanks to our relationship with Ascot, our Equine, Bloodstock, and Sport & Entertainment teams have even more direct connections to the sporting industry.

We’re also involved with equestrian communities across the board, from partnering with the Pony Club and British Carriage Driving to sponsoring major meetings in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Australia.
