Silent Auction lots Lot 15 Minimum bid £1,500 Kindly donated by Coolmore Stud A rare trip for four people to the world-famous Coolmore Stud Coolmore Stud, based in Fethard, County Tipperary in the Republic of Ireland, is generally acknowledged to be the world’s biggest, and best, thoroughbred racehorse breeding operation. Set in stunning countryside, Coolmore takes the long view that as custodians of fine lands they need to enhance the countryside for generations to come. Careful management ensures that the land continues to offer the necessary nutrients for optimal growth and health of thoroughbreds. Trees take time to mature, and have lasting effect on the landscape, but the importance for a stud farm is not all about aesthetics but the shelter from the winter wind and rain and shade from the warm, summer sun. Over the years, thousands of trees have been planted at Coolmore with 50 acres dedicated to nurseries growing native Irish trees. In this beautiful setting, you will see many of the world’s greatest stallions, with no less than four Derby winners including the world’s leading stallion, Gallileo. Six of his best sons, all with impeccable race records and pedigrees stand at Coolmore for 2018 - Australia, Churchill, Gleneagles, Highland Reel, Ruler of the World and The Ghurkha. Many more famous names including Mastercraftsman, Rock of Gibraltar, and Holy Roman Emperor await your visit. A private tour of the horses is followed by a fascinating hosted tour of the Coolmore museum and the day is rounded off with a private lunch at the Stud. A truly thoroughbred, unmissable experience which money alone cannot buy. www.coolmore.com ALL PHOTOGRAPHS © COOLMORE STUD 13

Silent Auction lots Lot 35 Minimum bid £500 Kindly donated by Nigel Frieda A secluded holiday cottage for four people for three days on the private island of Osea Step back in time to enjoy a midweek break (Tuesday to Thursday) on the private and genuinely beautiful Osea Island, just an hour and a half drive from London and located in the magnificent Blackwater Estuary off the coast of Essex. The whole ethos at Osea is to provide you with an inspiring and secluded environment where you can relax – and secluded it really is, as this tidal island is only connected to the mainland twice a day for four hours. For the rest of the day its ancient Roman causeway is beneath the sea’s surface – just one of many magical touches to the place. This is a great destination for sailing, fishing, cycling, walking, beach lounging or just relaxing with a good book on this peaceful island with its rich and diverse history, having been occupied for over 5,000 years. Valid until end June 2019 mid-week subject to availability. Tuesday arrival and Thursday departure subject to tides. www.oseaisland.co.uk ALL PHOTOGRAPHS © OSEA ISLAND LTD 25
