The fundraising event will feature signature cocktails, Southern cuisine, live music, and a live auction of racing memorabilia and experiences. Tickets are available here.
“Bash at the Breeders' Cup has become a can't-miss event on the Breeders' Cup week calendar,” said Erin Halliwell executive director of TCA. “We're looking forward to another fantastic event all while raising money for our 2023 approved grant recipients that work to provide Thoroughbred aftercare and offer health and human services to backstretch and farm workers.”
Bash at the Breeders' Cup will feature a live auction including a Del Mar Racing package, a halter worn by Life Is Good, a racing saddle signed by numerous jockeys including John Velazquez and Jose Ortiz, a GI Whitney S. package, a GI Blue Grass S. package, artwork by Jeaneen Barnhart and much more. Artist Robert Clark will live paint an oil on linen piece featuring top Breeders' Cup contenders. The piece will be available for bidding in the live auction. For those that cannot attend in-person, online bidding will be available beginning Tuesday, Nov. 1. Online bidding will close at 12 p.m. ET Friday, Nov. 4 and bidders wishing to continue bidding in the live auction may bid by telephone. Auction items may be previewed here.
