The inspiration behind the phantom race call is that you run a horse racing function using some current pre-recorded events but using a live caller to call the real races as they appear up on the partition. Obviously the races are not literally "live" as you would need all the horses at a race track or to be in front of the TV whilst a race was on. If this was the circumstance you would most likely just listen to the endorsed race caller rather than doing this yourself.

Envisage that you are having a Xmas bash or a school fundraiser and your subject is A Night at the Races. If you have your own phantom race caller you are able to customize the horse names and race names to suit your personal needs and really add that individual touch to the experience. You could list all the races as your corporation products, school curriculum or business territories. You could even use the main boss's names or the principal and workers names on the race card. Nearly all races these days are already backed by a business organization name so as a matter of choice than listening to them call out Race figure 1, race number 2 etc you get the sponsor's name into the race details as every possibility.

Once you have your list of race names it's time to get even more innovative and have the solitary horse names redone to build in some solitary personalities. When christening racehorses the accepted rule is that the name must not be greater than 18 characters. It must not include utter profanity words, it cannot be a figure or a hard to enunciate word. Alliteration works very well as does having a sense of farce and being able to have a little merriment when making up the names - just don't slur anyone.

The phantom race caller will need a list of all the names so that they can prepare a script and dress rehearse. If you have gone overboard with the names it may be vexing to pronounce them all when the race is run. The script for the races is based on previously run (but not very well know) races, so there is often a timing issue with obtaining the race call right.

Now that you have your race names and horses named you just need a form manual with all this information for all your guests to see. Print out a copy of each guest and give them this in advance. The form information should combine some pertinent information about the races including, the race name and any sponsors. The names of the horses you have chosen, earlier 4 starts (form manual) and jockey colours (so that you can keep an eye on your horse in the crowd)

It's now time to get the races in motion now that you have concluded all your plans. Make sure that your Phantom Race Caller has a microphone to call the races and that they can survey the partition to view the races whilst they speak out the race calls. If you have planned supplementary bookies to take wagers and arrange the payouts make sure they are equipped at the completion of the race.
