Enter the Cheltenham Gold Claimers and strike gold on RaceClubs.com!

Enter the Cheltenham Gold Claimers to strike gold on RaceClubs.com! 

The Cheltenham Festival has enjoyed an upward spiral as one of the most successful and exciting horse racing events that attracts runners from all across Europe, and thanks to extensive media coverage through print, radio and television you have one of the most highly publicized horse racing events in the world enjoying international coverage. 

The Cheltenham Festival forms the apex of Europe’s most prestigious horseracing events of the season, when for four (an extra day is added to the RaceClubs.com race program) extraordinary days trainers from as far as Russia, France and Germany showcase their most competitive horses. Hosted in Cheltenham, it’s the horse racing event of the year- and it rivals Wimbledon, the Grand Prix and even the FA Cup Final! 

Everyone wants to be a part of the Cheltenham action because those Cheltenham horses are worth more than their weight in gold. The good news is that RaceClubs.com has created a unique opportunity for trainers to claim the Cheltenham horses of their dreams through the Cheltenham Gold Claimers. It’s a first for RaceClubs.com; those sponsored Cheltenham Gold Claimers allow trainers to race their grade one horses for added stakes while prospective buyers are sure to find some highly competitive horses at equally competitive prices. 


Some Claiming Truths
 Claimers aren’t dumping grounds for bad horses because these horses are equally competitive in their own right but not necessarily in graded races. Your horses can make good money running in claimers and other interested trainers may be interested enough in your horse to pay you cash for it. 

When entering your horse in a Claimer, you are putting it up for sale as any other member may place a Claim on your horse. 

You own the horse until the end of the race and if it wins you collect the prize money. If someone has claimed it, you will also collect the claim price specified in the name of the race (eg. In a $15.00 Claiming Plate, you collect $15.00 less 15% commission) and your horse will be transferred to the Claimer (purchaser). 

It is unlikely that a Champion horse will be entered in a Grade 1 Claiming Race as owners will generally not risk losing their champions. Unless of course, a nominating owner has not recognized the true ability of a Champion horse in which case the astute claimer will make a prize purchase of a horse that has ability to succeed in Grade Races. The higher value Claiming Races will naturally attract more competitive horses. 

Once you have entered a horse for a Claiming Race you may not nominate that horse for any other Race until the Claiming race has run. 


The Cheltenham Gold Claimers
 

There are 30 races programmed between the 14th & 18th March 2011 with $30 added sponsorships. They’re expected to attract the stronger horses that can compete for the added money but they’re not going to pull the big G1 monsters- unless you’re really lucky because then you can claim it! 

If you’ve ever wanted to claim a really great horse on RaceClubs.com’s then you can stake your claim in the Cheltenham Gold Claimers.
