Through Purses for a Purpose, owners can pledge to donate customizable portions of their horses' winnings, with the money going directly to programming at the BLC. The evening will also feature a 2022 Derby handicapping seminar with a panel including Caton Bredar, Joe Kristufek, and Brandon Stauble. Donna Barton Brothers will moderate and Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale will be a special guest. There will also be a cigar bar and bourbon raffle, with complimentary hors d'oeuvres and drinks by Crushed Ice Catering.
