Bidding is now open for the Clock Tower Cup Auction

This Friday sees The Betfair Clock Tower Cup, a charity race for stable staff, take place at Doncaster, and as part of this day, we host a lunch at Doncaster as a fundraising event.  The lunch includes both a live and silent auction and this year, we have decided to open the silent auction ahead of the day, so that those unable to attend the event are able to be in with a chance of bidding on some of these amazing prizes from racing hospitality to luxury breaks.

Start the bidding now, you have until 9am 1st July: www.clocktowercuprw22.com

We are also welcoming absentee bids for one, very unusual live lot – Have yourself included as a named character in the next “Dick Francis Novel” by Felix Francis. This extraordinary item includes lunch for 2 with Felix to discuss the character, an autographed pre-publication copy of the finished book, and an invitation for 2 to the book launch party in London in September 2023 where you will rub shoulders with racing, TV and literary celebrities.


The character will be used fictitiously but he or she will be an accurate representation of the winning bidder and will exist forever on the page. But do you want to be included as a goody or a baddy?? Or even as a murder victim?? You can choose!

Minimum bid price – £2,500.00

You can bid on this item even if you can’t attend on 1st July. Please contact Clare Kingston on ckingston@racingwelfare.co.uk to place an Absentee Bid.
