Ray Ruttle’s Race Night was launched in May 2020 during the Coronavirus lockdown in a bid to restore some live action back to the calendar.

Using the classic tabletop horse racing game Escalado, Ray entertains his viewers – the Rayvers – with thrilling race nights culminating in the annual Boxing Day Bonanza. Initially contested as a league season, the tournament has now switched to a sudden-death knockout format.
