Thoroughbred owner and songwriter/executive producer Ken Freirich of Better World Records will make a $20,000 donation to Breeders' Cup Charities if the 40th Day $20,000 match goal is met during the final stage of the program, the Breeders' Cup said in a release Friday.

Breeders' Cup Limited has pledged to match up to $20,000 of funds raised on the 40th day which, in conjunction with Mr. Freirich's donation, could see $60,000 being raised on the final day alone.

“Breeders' Cup Charities is so thankful to Mr. Freirich and Better World Records for supporting 40 Days of Giving with such generosity,” said Stefanie Palmieri, Vice President of Events at Breeders' Cup Limited.

The $20,000 match donation from Better World Records on behalf of Random Acts of Kindness celebrates the new single “Free to Roam,” a top 20 Billboard AC hit.

“I am thrilled to partner with the Breeders Cup to support their charitable mission on this wonderful occasion, the 40th Running of the Breeders Cup,” said Freirich. “I really was moved by the 40 Days of Giving program and hope to inspire others to give to these very deserving Thoroughbred industry nonprofits.”
