Catch The Fire To Help Aid Charities

Published: July 16, 2020 12:27 pm EDT

Pacing For The Cure is pleased to announce that, beginning July 18, CT Stables will be donating four per cent of winning purse money from the three-year-old pacing colt Catch The Fire’s Grand Circuit races in 2020 to two charities, Pacing For The Cure and Cell Phones For Soldiers.

The donation will be split equally between both charities and will apply to any top-three finishes earned by the three-year-old colt; plus an added bonus if the colt wins any Grand Circuit races. For more information on Catch The Fire, click here.

Pacing For The Cure is excited to join together with Cell Phones For Soldiers through the three-year-old campaign of Catch The Fire. CT Stables is a strong supporter of Cell Phones For Soldiers and the colt’s driver, Mike Wilder, is a strong supporter of Pacing For the Cure, thus a unique connection for both charities.

CT Stables owner Charles Taylor commented, “I hope to see other stables, owners, trainers, drivers and breeders get involved in supporting these two great charities.”

We welcome horsepeople, racetracks, breeding farms, and Standardbred horse sales across the country to consider placing cell phone recycling bins throughout their work places.
