The Dale Trust is hosting a fundraising Race Night on Wednesday 1st June in the Ratcliffe Bar at the Crown Oil Arena.
If you’ve never attended an event like this before, this is how it works. There will be eight recorded races shown on the big screen, and you can bet on any horse that you like at £1 a time. Those backing the winner will share 50% of the pot. Our last event like this back in 2019 raised just short of £2,000 and we are hoping for a similar total this around.
It usually proves to be a very enjoyable night and it is free of charge to attend. We are not limiting attendance to Trust members or even Dale fans, everyone is invited to this event so please bring family and friends.
There will be eight races on the night and we are offering supporters the chance to become a horse owner or a jockey. It costs just £10 to purchase a horse and you get to name it *. You can purchase your horse online using the form below. The winning horse in each race will receive a prize. We will announce the prizes in the next few days.
We are also offering the chance to be the jockey of each horse. This is available for £5 and the winning jockey for each race will win a bottle of wine.
The eighth race will be auctioned off on the night,
Every penny raised both in advance and on the night will go towards the Legal Defence Fund against the ongoing legal action from Morton House.
* The only caveat is that the Horse name must be something that we can publish on our website
