Here at The Three Tuns we belive in the power of the Community! On Saturday 22nd July 2023 join us when we host a fun Charity Race Night in Aid of the Motor Neurone Disease Association!
191 Wokingham Road. RG6 1LT
How it Works:We explain to our guests that we use a 'betting tote system' to calculate the winnings in each race. A betting tote system works by collecting in all of the wagers before the race, a percentage of the income is retained for the Charity donation and the remainder is divided between the winning betting tote tickets on the night. The price of the tickets is usually £1.00 or multiples thereof. Once all of the wagers have been placed the betting tote is closed. A race is then shown. This selection is random, so nobody knows which race has been selected or which horse is the winner. As the lights go down and the compere announces the race and the runners, the betting tote staff calculates the amounts to be paid to the winners and how much is to be retained for additional prizes.
Horse Auction:We select a couple of races during the evening, e.g. the third and sixth and hold an auction. Everyone can bid for whichever horse they like and the highest bidder takes the horse. After the eight horses have been auctioned, we deduct a percentage, e.g. 25%, for prize money and the charity donation. The race is run and the balance is paid to the winning owner.
Horse Sales:Horses can be bought at the event. After the betting tote is closed, 8 people are welcome to come and buy the horse from the MC for £1 each. The winner receives £5 and £3 goes towards the charity funds. We must sell all 8 horses to justify this.
Raffle:In between Races we will host a Tombola raffle for prizes sponsored by local business. All raffle purchases go towards MND fund.
