Gelding World Cup - Year 64

Post by Laura Ferguson »

It's that time of year! Can you believe it? This year's Steward's Cup is at Louisville Downs, so we’ll join in (any all weather races could be at Artificial Arena, mixers at Odessa Park, harness at Maroon Mile and steeplechases at Fort Knox). If people want to sponsor additional steeplechases/all weather/mixed breed races, please feel free - the more the merrier!

The dirt and turf races will once again be run on Week 16 THURSDAY, with the baby races. That gives them a little more attention, so they're not lost in the glom of Week 16 Friday races. The steeplechase and all weather races will be run on Week 16 MONDAY, and if anyone wants to sponsor a mixed breed/harness race, they'd obviously be on the Wednesday

Here are last year's races and sponsors - I'll let last year's sponsors have first crack at doing it again, but if for whatever reason, they can't/don't, I'll open them up for someone else to sponsor on Tuesday, June 13th (and feel free to downgrade/upgrade the stakes in terms of purse/grade; whatever works for your finances). Please do not jump in prior to June 13th to sponsor an existing race that was not sponsored by you last SIM year unless the sponsor has posted they're not sponsoring this year. Thank you! That said, if you want to create/sponsor a brand new race or resurrect one that was not held last year, please feel free to do that at any time.

As always, thanks for everyone's generosity. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks! Laura
