GRANDSTAND RACING LIMITED has been incorporated since 18 July 2014, giving it over eleven years of corporate history. It's registered in Henfield, West Sussex, and classified under SIC code 92000, meaning its primary activity is gambling and betting. The company's grade A score of 84 out of 100 reflects strong governance indicators across status, age, ownership transparency, and UK residency of its officers.

It's a compact, privately held company with a simple ownership structure. Both persons with significant control are individuals registered in the UK, with no corporate or offshore ownership layers. That kind of clean, transparent ownership is relatively uncommon in the gambling sector and contributes to its high score.
