The awards are to be presented at a prestigious charity evening themed "Celebrating the Best" in the
Royal Randwick Ballroom on Thursday, 15 August 2019.
Other awards to be presented on the night
include the BOBS Horse of the Year, the Sydney Strapper of the Year, the NSW Racing Writers'
Personality of the Year, the T J Smith Award, the George Moore Award, the Theo Green Award, the Bart
Cummings Medal and the coveted title of TAB NSW Champion Horse of the Year.
Loyal supporters TAB, Racing NSW, Sky Racing, the Australian Turf Club, International Animal Health
Products, New Zealand Bloodstock, Wild Oaks, Inglis, Carrazzo Consulting, De Bortoli Wines and Hall
Chadwick are joined by new sponsors Coolmore Australia and City Tatts.
Partnering for the first time with Spinal Cord Injuries Australia (SCIA) as the charity, the evening will hit
home with the many industry participants who have friends and colleagues, or even personal
experience, with devastating spinal cord injuries.
Jockeys Tommy Berry and Tye Angland are involved in this year's event, with Tye currently receiving
rehabilitation and ongoing peer support through SCIA and welcoming the opportunity to help raise
funds for its ongoing work. SCIA provides a range of ongoing services to help people lead more
independent lives.
Generous donations of auction items will make for some lively bidding. A service (with free return) to
Golden Slipper winner, Vancouver; a handmade white gold and diamond pendant; a $10,000 SKY Racing
advertising package; a 5 Star luxury holiday in Bali with business class airfares; and a McLaren Racing Car
experience are just some of the fantastic lots in the auction.
There will also be a raffle conducted on the night as well as a lucky door prize.
The 2019 Racing's Night of Champions Awards will again be televised live on Sky Thoroughbred Central
on the Foxtel platform, and also internationally by their exclusive media partner Sky Racing, with
highlights of the night also being shown across all Sky Racing channels.
Tickets, at $240 per person ($2,400 for a table of ten) are selling out quickly.
