ON-SITE PROMOTION To kick off the excitement of the inaugural running of the First Lady (G1) Presented by UK HealthCare, Keeneland leveraged on-site opportunities to promote UK HealthCare’s sponsorship of the prestigious First Lady (G1) and capitalize on the captive audience of racing fans present for the Fall race meet. • On-Site Banners: The UK HealthCare corporate logo welcomed guests as they drove on Keeneland Drive during the First Lady’s race day, providing unique brand exposure. • Track Exposure: UK HealthCare branding was displayed throughout the race day in promotion of the First Lady (G1) on track with the custom race saddle towels, pony riders and gate crew jackets and the trophy presentation table cloth. Corporate and race logos were displayed on a rotational basis throughout the fall race meet on the in-field tote board, 1,100 TVs, and digital signs located throughout the Keeneland grounds. This unique marketing opportunity displayed both corporate and race branding to catch the attention of attendees present for the Fall Meet. • Paddock Exposure: The central area in the Keeneland Paddock was branded with UK HealthCare during the First Lady (G1). Racing fans were exposed to UK HealthCare corporate branding on the tree boxes and Paddock Chalet signs, as well as your race logo featured on the valet’s jackets and grooms’ race caps and bibs. • Year-Round Exposure: UK HealthCare was added to the prestigious Race Sponsors board located between the Paddock and the track to recognize our partnership.
