Win a racehorse in training for a year with Gordon Elliott

The Ward Union Hunt Club is offering a chance to be a racehorse owner for a year, with trainer Gordeon Elliott.  For €50 you will be in a draw to win a horse in training with the leading National Hunt trainer and experience the thrill of racehorse ownership with no hidden costs for the 2018 National Hunt season.  The winner will get to choose their own racing colours, see their horse work on the gallops, receive owner’s badges for racedays when their horse is running, and will get to keep all prize money!  

A similar fundraiser was run in 2015 which proved a great success with the lucky winner enjoying over €11,000 but besides the prize money, which was an obvious bonus, these occasions were described as being invaluable to the family, providing them with a number of fun-filled outings and unforgettable memories, courtesy of the Ward Union Hunt Club. 

If being a racehorse owner isn’t for you then the Ward Union Hunt will offer a cash alternative of €7,000 in lieu.  This year there is also a generous second prize of €1,000 and a third of €500.

Tickets are limited and the draw will take place at the end of December 2017.
