What’s Included in the Premier Package
8 Professional Horse Races with Commentary
High-quality race films featuring home-of-racing track footage and professional commentary by Mark Johnson – the only race caller to have announced both the Kentucky Derby and the Epsom Derby.
Each race includes:
8 horses with unpredictable outcomes
HD video with full commentary
Realistic racecourse footage
Exciting, authentic finishes that keep the room engaged
Approximate runtime:
3–7 minutes per race video
20–25 minutes per race including betting and payouts
Designed for a 3–4 hour event
Virtual Compere (Pre-Recorded Host)
Your Virtual Compere acts as your night at the races MC:
Welcomes your guests and explains how the night works
Introduces races and builds atmosphere
Reminds guests when it is time to place bets
Helps keep the night moving smoothly and professionally
This means:
You do not need an experienced MC
Volunteers feel more confident
Guests get a consistent, polished experience
You can still add your own local announcements between races (raffles, bar promotions, sponsor mentions, etc.), but the Virtual Compere handles the “core show.”
Premium Printable Materials Pack
Every document you need to run and promote a professional night at the races, delivered as high-resolution, editable PDFs:
Tote betting tickets (print unlimited copies)
Race cards with pre-filled horse names
Blank race card templates (if you want to name your own horses)
Event posters and promotional flyers
Sponsor sheets for race and horse sponsors
Horse ownership and naming forms
Advanced tote calculation and payout sheets
Race announcement and result sheets
Full organizer checklist
You can add your organization’s name and event details to the materials.
Complete Event Planning System
You get everything from the Complete Package, plus the additional benefit of the Virtual Compere.
Included:
8-week planning timeline from idea to event night
Venue setup guide (layout, screen, sound, tables)

Betting system explanation in clear, simple language
Night at the races running order and suggested schedule
Tips to maximize revenue from sponsors, ticket sales, and betting

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need any special equipment?
You only need a laptop, projector or large TV, speakers, and a printer. Most venues already have a projector or big screen available.
Q: How is this different from the Complete Package?
The Premier Package includes everything in the Complete Package, plus:
The Virtual Compere (pre-recorded host)
A more polished, hosted experience for your guests
If you want your event to feel like a professionally run night at the races show, this is the best choice.
Q: Can I run the event without the Virtual Compere?
Yes. You can choose to mix your own MC with the Virtual Compere or skip segments if you prefer. The system is flexible.
Q: How long does the event last?
Most groups run a 3–4 hour evening, including 8 races, betting windows, prize announcements, raffles, and breaks.
