Next Sunday marks the 74th edition of the Pattison Canadian International, bringing the World’s finest Turf Stars together in a mile-and-a-half Showdown at Woodbine Racetrack. Valued at $1.5 million, several of Horse Racing’s greatest Legends have won the Grade I Race in the past including the inimitable Secretariat, who capped off his celebrated Career here in Toronto back in 1973 with a smashing runaway Victory.
Here’s the scoop – our Friends at the Woodbine Entertainment Group were kind enough to offer my Readers a handful of $25 Gift Cards. So simply RSVP that you’ll be attending the Race here and also confirm that you’ve done so by clicking “like” on this Post at Mr. Will Wong on Facebook before Thursday, October 11, 2012 for your chance to win! You must be 19 years of age to enter.
Although you can do whatever you’d like with your $25 Gift Card, chances are you’ll want to stay for an afternoon of fun at the Races. And believe it or not on Woodbine Mile Day recently, a Friend of one of my Readers Gabriella, was lucky enough to win a free $1,000 bet! Of course, he played it smart and safe, won his bet and went on to take his winnings home! Now who doesn’t like free money?
The Pattison Canadian International takes place Sunday, October 14, 2012 at Woodbine Racetrack – just minutes from Toronto Pearson International Airport and less than 30 minutes by bus from Islington Station (Bus 37A). Races start at 1:00 PM and run till approximately 6:00 PM. All you need is $2.00 to place a bet!
