Hounds for Pounds

In a new addition to Horses for Causes' repertoire, we're proud to present Hounds for Pounds - an innovative new greyhound racing partnership.

Claddagh Legend - January 2005 black dog

This dog has won four of his 13 races in Ireland. He's a genuine, early-paced dog who's clocked 29.20 at Shelbourne Park, and is expected to achieve A4/A3/A2 grade.

Eight shares are available, and he may be renamed under our ownership - running in the name of Hounds for Pounds.

He will be trained by Jason Foster and run at Wimbledon.

What does it cost?

A 1/8 share in this exciting dog costs £370 to cover purchase and all expenses until 1 June 2007, then £35 per month per share thereafter (paid by standing order).

What are the benefits?

• appearance money - around £25 for each run
• prize money of £60 - £130 for each win
• free or discounted entry to the track for owners when the dog runs
• full share of prize money
• Sunday morning kennel visits (Hersham) available to all shareholders
• regular updates via telephone and email
• news on the dog posted to the exclusive members' only area of www.horsesforcauses.com

Other details

If we can find the final subscriber this dog can be brought over to England next week, have his three trials during April, and be on the card at Wimbledon by the first week in May, all being well. Funds must be in place before we commit.

Subscribers will agree that on each occasion that the dog wins they will personally be liable to pay the odds to £10 into the ‘Horses for Causes’ Charity Fund. That is, if he wins at 4/1 each subscriber will pay £40.

Prize and appearance money will be paid out by cheque to each subscriber on a quarterly basis, starting August 2007.
