Stuntman strikes at Epsom Derby

Yet another unexpected appearance from a jackass Golden Palace stuntman.

Saturday 5th June 2004



Just ten minutes ago, this afternoon’s high stakes, high pressure racing at Epsom received a much-needed tension breaker when a GoldenPalace.com (www.GoldenPalace.com) inspired stuntman made a ‘surprise appearance’, breaking onto the course in a high stakes, Derby Day daring gallop of his own.

'This is a high pressure environment,' laughed Richard Rowe, CEO Golden Palace. 'We like to lighten things up when the stakes are high.'

The stuntman was Mark Roberts, who is widely known as the “World’s Most Prolific Streaker”. Wearing little more than a tattoo of the Internet casino website GoldenPalace.com, Roberts galloped onto the course, sharing his racing aspirations with the thousands of live race goers, together with millions watching on television worldwide.

One of a growing team of global Golden Palace inspired stuntmen and women, Roberts first made his appearance at the UEFA Cup Final in Summer 2003, sparking subsequent stunt frenzy. Golden Palace tattooed performers have since appeared at events worldwide, including the PGA Tour's U.S. Open, the World Swimming Championships, the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain, and ‘figure streaking’ the Dortmund World Figure Skating Championships in March 2004. Mark himself appeared this February during the US Super bowl. And only two weeks ago, he streaked the UEFA Cup Final, catching live televised worldwide audiences unaware and igniting global smiles.
