Tote raising funds for Irish Injured Jockeys Tote Ireland will donate all profits from bets placed through the Tote on French racing on Sunday week, May 3, to the Irish Injured Jockeys Fund. Tote customers can bet on up to four race meetings on the day with Group 1 racing from Longchamp featuring the Prix Ganay. The Dermot Weld trained Fascinating Rock is the sole Irish entry in the race at this time. Tim Higgins, CEO of Tote Ireland said, "Tote have been supporting Irish racing since 1930 with all our profits returning to Irish racing. The work of the Irish Injured Jockeys Fund is crucial in supporting the jockeys who put themselves on the line every day. "We're delighted to run this special fundraiser for the Irish Injured Jockeys Fund, and we hope people get behind us to raise lots of money." Carey-Ann Lordan, PR & Marketing Manager of Irish Injured Jockeys, said, "This is a great incentive for funds to be raised for Irish Injured Jockeys and, in light of recent events, the charity needs all the support that it can get to help injured riders. "We appreciate the gesture that Tote are making and would encourage racegoers to get on board and show their support on May 3."
