Cheering For Charity is a Moonee Valley Racing Club initiative that takes place at every Ladbrokes Friday Night Lights race meeting throughout the season.  The Club proudly works alongside multiple charities, with one assigned to each race night.

Vote for your chance to win!

At each Ladbrokes Friday Night Lights meeting, a specific race will be selected, providing you with the opportunity to cast your vote for the horse you want to be running for Cheering For Charity. Voting will open midday Wednesday and close midday Friday, with the horse that receives the most votes becoming the Cheering For Charity horse for that week. If it wins, our Principal Partner Ladbrokes will kindly donate $2,000 to the selected charity, and if unsuccessful, MVRC will donate $500.

In Season 2022/23, the Moonee Valley Racing Club Cheering For Charity initiative raised $11,997 for charities around Australia.
