Serious cash and a seat in the 2010 National Harness Handicapping Championship are up for grabs in the new Meadowlands/Mohawk Handicapping Challenge
on Saturday, June 27.
The tournament, which showcases the $1.5 million Pepsi North America Cup simulcast from Mohawk Racetrack, will be held in Raceworld Teletheater at the Meadowlands. Entry is just $100 ($50 entry fee, plus $50 tournament bankroll) and includes live and simulcast programs, a Harness Eye, dinner buffet, T-shirt and handicapping seminar with Dave Brower.
Prize payouts are to the top 10 and players keep their bankroll. The winner receives a seat in the 2010 NHHC, harness racing's only handicapping tournament with a $50,000 guaranteed prize pool, at the Meadowlands. To play, contestants must bet exactly 10 races: five each from the Meadowlands and Mohawk, including the $1.5 million Pepsi North America Cup. Wagers must be win only, on one horse per race and meet a $5 minimum (no maximum).
Pre-registration is strongly recommended, as teletheatre seating is available on a first come, first-served basis. A limited number of walk-ups will be taken on-track between 5:00 and 7:00 p.m.
