Day at the races for Senior Trophy

 

The Senior TT Trophy is going to enjoy an alternative day at the races.

It's to feature in a prestigious one-day exhibition at Ascot alongside some of the world's most iconic sporting trophies, including the Ashes Urn, the Rugby League Challenge Cup and the Calcutta Cup.

The exhibition is on the 19th of October, QIPCO British Champions Day which is billed as the richest day in British racing.

The famous Senior TT Trophy depicts Mercury, the Roman Winged God of the Messengers crafted in silver and atop a winged wheel.

It was first presented to Charlie Collier, winner of the first TT race in 1907.
