We might not be going to the World Cup in Brazil, but if there’s one sport that us Irish are truly great at, it’s horse racing.

We’re also pretty good at boxing, now that you mention it, and not too bad at rugby. Our football team is decent too and we tend to punch above our weight… look we’re getting sidetracked with how deadly we are. The point is, however good Brazil are at football and how synonymous they are with the sport, that’s what we are when it comes to horseracing, as Ted Walsh once pointed out.

From Red Rum to Istabraq and Shergar, the most memorable and famous names in the history of the sport are Irish, and they have always been proud to attend the Irish Derby, an event that sees the best turn out for an unmissable day of action and excitement on the most important day on the racing calendar, with this year’s festivities set to be the best yet.

Going to the races is not just about the sport however, it’s about the whole day – the atmosphere, the style and the unforgettable memories that will turn out to be priceless. Whether you win or lose on your bets, getting the royal treatment for the day is an experience that everyone would want, and with thanks to MasterCard Priceless Ireland, you have the chance to win a VIP experience at the Irish Derby that money really can’t buy.

For starters, you’re going to have to dress the part, so you’ll be sent along to Kildare Village where personal stylists will attend to your every need and get you dressed up to the nines. Not only that, but in your new swanky duds you’ll be attending the Irish Derby ball at the K Club, a black tie event, so looking your best is the only option.

You’ll also be staying at the K Club for the weekend, with all the pampering that comes along with that, before heading off to The Curragh for the Irish Derby, one of the biggest races in the world. You’ll be able to see the whole thing perfectly too, as you will have premier seats overlooking the finishing straight. But you’re not finished there, after that it’s back to the K Club to get your R&R, because on Sunday you’ll be playing a fourball on the amazing course.

Sound like your cup of tea? Then head over to MasterCard Priceless Ireland to enter and be in with a chance to win this once in a lifetime prize where you can experience life as a VIP.
