Gold Cup & Saucer Fan Club Online Handicapping Contest Live!

Published: August 16, 2012 03:23 pm EDT

The Gold Cup & Saucer at Red Shores Racetrack & Casino has been a Harness Racing tradition since the early 1960’s and is one of the greatest racing events in Canada.

Every August, as a culmination of Old Home Week, as the Island Hymn is played and the crowd quiets with anticipation just a few minutes before midnight, some of the best drivers and finest horses align to compete in one very extraordinary race.

To celebrate this year’s The Gold Cup and Saucer, the Fan Club will offer an Online Handicapping Contest featuring an assortment of questions based on the Gold Cup card of racing. Each question will be worth a predetermined number of points. The contestant who earns the highest number of points will be declared the winner. (see Terms and Conditions for more details)

The contest will open for entries at 5:00 PM on Wednesday, August 15, 2012 and will close for entries at 5:00 PM EST on Saturday, August 18, 2012. The contest winner will receive an I Love Canadian Harness Racing Prize Pack, which includes a $50 gift certificate to the Canadian racetrack of their choice & a great Fan Club tote filled with Fan Club merchandise!
