"Have you ever fancied being a racehorse owner for a night? Well now you
can, and so much more! We are offering the winning bidder in our charity
auction the chance to own the 2yo Racehorse called Scouting For Girls
for the evening of 14th July when he will be racing at Epsom Downs
racecourse. However, there's a twist - on that evening, the fantastic
band
Scouting For Girls are playing a
concert after racing. The winners package will start with a
Champagne reception at South Hatch Stables
where Scouting For Girls (the horse!) is in training with Jim Boyle. The
winner will be given 6 owners badges for the races and taken up to the
course in time for the first race. They will then go into the parade
ring to watch the horse being saddled up and speak to the jockey and
trainer to discuss tactics. Scouting For Girls (the band!) will also
come down to the parade ring to meet the owners. They will also be
providing loads of signed merchandise and some free guest passes to a
concert of the winners choice later in the year. Any prize-money won
will be split 50/50 between the owners and the charities being
supported. After the race the owners will once again have the chance to
have a chat with the jockey and trainer before enjoying the rest of the
evenings racing and a fabulous concert afterwards. This is a truly
unique opportunity to become a racehorse owner for the evening at one of
the UK's premier tracks, and also get to meet one of
the UK's
finest bands, watch them in concert and get your hands on some fantastic
signed merchandise and gig tickets. Not only that, but you will be
supporting 2 fantastic charities in
WellChild, who help sick children and
their families across the UK, and
The Samson Centre which is a specialist
centre set up to help sufferers from the debilitating disease Multiple
Sclerosis."
