    Is there a risk to your job if you don't go? If not I would not go. Since you say you feel strongly enough to never go to the races, having a cover band wouldn't/shouldn't make a difference.

    "I am sorry, but, I have another pressing engagement that day, and I cannot attend".

    What is wrong with just a simple statement to that effect?

    I would be honest. "My personal feelings toward horse racing won't make me very good company at these races." I had that happen to me a while back too. Our boss wanted to have a company picnic at a race track. I told them not to expect me if that was the venue.
