888.com brands, 888poker and 888sport have teamed up to bring an opportunity of a lifetime to their members with their very own share in a Walter Swinburn Racing trained racehorse!
In partnership with Circuit Racing, 888poker and 888sport members have an exclusive opportunity to win one of 20 shares in a premium racehorse syndicate. Each 5% share is valued at £3000 and covers costs for training, vets, insurance and all other fees for one year from the date of purchase of the horse. When all 20 shares have been allocated, the horse will be chosen and purchased at auction. To ensure optimum prize money winning potential, Circuit Racing has enlisted the expertise of Walter Swinburn Racing to assist with auction assessments, training and management of the horse.
Shareholders in the syndicate will receive regular owner update reports, exclusive access to owner areas at races, invitations to private events hosted by Circuit Racing and voluntary participation in all partner meetings.
In support of this exciting opportunity, 888.com celebrity ambassador Shane Warne has even purchased the first share. He stated, “This is a great opportunity that 888.com is giving its members. Owning your own racehorse is a real thrill and I am excited to have the chance to be part of it!”
