NIGEL Farage enjoyed the company of a multi-millionaire Tory donor during a day at the races last week, The Sun can reveal.
The meeting between the Reform UK leader and entrepreneur Dr James Hay is likely to trigger speculation over future political donations.
The Scottish businessman and his wife, Fitriani, who are based in Dubai and worth £325million, have given substantial sums to the Conservatives in the past.
Fitriani was one of the main financial backers of ex-PM Liz Truss’s Tory leadership campaign, donating £100,000.
Racing fan Mr Farage was a guest of owners the Hays during Glorious Goodwood on Friday.
He was spotted in the parade ring with Mr Hay and later in a hospitality area.
Meanwhile, senior Labour figures expressed panic over big business backing Reform.
Industry chiefs will be at the party’s annual rally next month.
