The musician, who has two Grammy awards to his name, has worked with the likes of Lily Allen for the track ‘Oh My God’, Daniel Merriweather with ‘Stop Me’ and collaborated with Amy Winehouse for ‘Valerie’.

The hit-maker was also behind one the best-selling singles of the century, ‘Uptown Funk’ with Bruno Mars, which sat at number one both here and in the US, earning him a BRIT Award.

Amy Starkey, Regional Director East of Jockey Club Racecourses, said:

“We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Mark Ronson to Newmarket Racecourses for the first time. This really is the cherry on the top of what is set to be a fantastic summer on the Adnams July Course, adding further to the celebrations around the 350th anniversary in Newmarket this year.”
