Trophy Stall ride with Jumbo Jet Triple Crown event

Guyana’s leading distributors of silverware, Trophy Stall, have continued their support of horse racing by committing sponsorship for the final leg of the Jumbo Jet Thoroughbred Racing Committee’s (JJTRC’s) inaugural Triple Crown final leg, which gallops off this Easter Sunday at the Port Mourant Turf Club on the Corentyne Coast in East Berbice.
At its South Road location, proprietor Ramesh Sunich presented organiser Nazrudeen Mohamed with over half a dozen trophies which will be awarded to top performers at this Sunday’s highly anticipated race meet.
Mohamed expressed gratitude for the generous gesture made by Sunich, while Sunich noted that he is always ready to support horse racing, which attracts fans from all walks of life.
The Triple Crown race promotion provides a bonus of $500,000 for whichever horse can complete three consecutive victories; and come this Easter, the mare Valentina, in the three-year-old Guyana-bred category, will be the only animal in the running for the Triple Crown bonus.
The feature race — C Class and Lower — will pay out prizes amounting to almost $2 million, with the winner of that race pocketing $1 million.
The winner of the race for three-year-old Guyana-bred horses will pocket $400,000; the F Class winner will pocket $350,000; the H Class winner $300,000; the ‘I Class’ winner $250,000; the J Class winner $230,000; the K Class winner $220,000; the L Class winner $200,000; and the L Class and Lower winner will pocket $140,000.
