Book the Chad Graham
Band, featuring Chad
Graham and Gabe Deknatel, wellknown
musicians from the
Saddlebred world, for your upcoming party or event.

American Idol season, so don’t wait until he’s so
famous you can’t even get near him for an autograph!
The band plays danceable original songs along with
popular and classic rock covers. Travel costs required
if the winning bidder has an out-of-state event. Bidder
may choose the Chad and Gabe duo if preferred.
Cover of American
Saddlebred, March/April 2009
See your choice of full-color, specially
designed cover on the March/April 2009 issue of the
ASHA magazine, official voice and largest circulation
of the Saddle bred breed. It’s the only breed magazine
that is sent to every senior, junior, affiliate, and international
member worldwide of the American
Saddlebred Horse Association. Your winning bid will
provide direct support to expand the promotional and
educational programs for the breed. What a great
time to shine your star at the height of the breeding
season, and just as the American show year is underway
in earnest everywhere.

Hotel Monteleone,
New Orleans
A two-night stay for two, at a hotel that
combines a legendary history of hospitality
with a vibrant contemporary flair and a location at
the heart of the French Quarter! It’s an historic landmark
in its own right, and, like the Cathedral and
other French Quarter landmarks, it has a character
all its own.

Framed Print of Scarf Signed
by Carson Kressley and the
Artist, Janet Crawford
Carson commissioned the original piece from Janet
Crawford on behalf of his “Perfect by Carson Kressley”
clothing collection, featured on
QVC, Inc. The artwork was used
for scarves and as part of the gorgeous
lining of the “Perfect” 2007
coat collection. Carson and Janet
are donating this first authorized
giclee print, to be signed by both
of them. It’s displayed at VanderMoore during the week
of the auction.

Rocking Horse
Hand-crafted, this is a

this one is chestnut with
a flaxen mane and tail. A oneof-a-kind
treasure!

A Manhattan Weekend, Including
Luncheon with Carson Kressley at
Bergdorf Goodman
Take in the Bronx and Staten Island,

too, from your Park Avenue studio apartment,
courtesy of Candi Aversanti, which
sleeps two in comfort. A third person, or
two children, can be accommodated. At the corner of
Park Avenue and 34 th Street, just steps from the
Empire State Building, you’re also steps away from
anywhere else via cab or subway! Doorman building,
so you’ll be greeted in style, as you arrive or return
from shopping, a Broadway show, the Opera at
Lincoln Center, Rockefeller Center, or your special
lunch with Carson at Bergdorf’s.

Unbelievable Items and All Proceeds
Support Youth, Breed Programs
Commissioned Bronze by
Alexa King
We like to believe Alexa’s favorite horses
are Saddlebreds, of course, but she’s most recently
been commissioned for the over life size bronze of
Barbaro and Edgar Prado to commemorate his Derby
win at Churchill Downs. Her individual sculptures are
in the collections of America’s most prominent families
and institutions, not to mention corporations, so your
World’s Champion deserves the very best – you’ll not
likely have this opportunity ever again!

2008 Breeders’ Cup, Friday and
Saturday, October 24-25, at Santa
Anita Park in California
The Breeders’ Cup World Champion ships of
Thoroughbred Racing has been expanded to two
days. We have arranged for a Private Turf Club
Terrace Table for four (4) on the finish line at spectacular
Santa Anita, not available to
anyone but an insider like you, luncheon
and parking on both days
10
included. If you like, we’ve also
arranged for a tour of the backstretch
to see where Seabiscuit
lived, and the entire park, including a visit to the
Money Room where the change fund alone is over
$5 million. Ever held a million in cash in your hands?
This is your chance – but sorry, no free samples.
Plenty of betting advice, however, will be arranged
with “experts,” who wouldn’t be if they really could
pick the horses.
A Week in a 400-year-old French
Village House

thoughtfully compiled daytrips in the
detailed house book, combine to make
this an unforgettable experience in the
idyllic-yet-lively village of Saint-Jean-de-Cole, in the
historic and beautiful Dordogne region of France.
Recomm end ed by Conde Nast Traveler, the twofloor
