SUFFOLK DOWNS hosts A QUALITY, Inexpensive
DRF/NTRA QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT - SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20


Join us for the second of two qualifying tournaments for the Daily Racing Form/NTRA National Handicapping Championship to be held January 25-26, 2008 at Red Rock Casino, Resort and Spa in Las Vegas, NV.

The top finisher in this tournament will qualify for the National Championship. http://www.suffolkdowns.com/newsletters/images/NHC_LOGO.JPG

In addition to the qualifying spot, cash prizes will be awarded to the top ten finishers. All money received in entry fees will be returned to these prize winners. Additional prizes will be provided courtesy of Brisnet (http://www.brisnet.com/)</I>.

The entry fee is $60 and includes a Daily Racing Form, a simulcast program and lunch (12:30-2:30). All entrants will also receive a door prize courtesy of Brisnet (http://www.brisnet.com/)</I>.

The tournament will consist of 15 pre-selected races.

Players will be required to make a mythical $2 Win AND Place wager on one horse in each race. The order of finish for the tournament will be determined by the mythical bankrolls amassed by each player based on their 15 wagers. All selections must be turned in prior to the first race of the tournament. For this reason, there is no cap on prices. Registration will begin at 11 a.m. in the Topsider Room. The first race of the tournament will be at approximately 3 p.m. and the final race will be at around 6 p.m.

To reserve a spot in the tournament, send us an e-mail (publicity@suffolkdowns.com). The tournament will be limited to 300 players. Limit one entry per person.



I entered Suffolk's first NTRA Qualifier in August, & I'll be playing again on the 20th. Nice comfortable room, Free Coffee & Ice Water (ALL Day):eek: , Pasta/Salad entree , Cookies & Brownies for desert. Compare the $60 entry fee vs. others around the nation, & you'll see it's a bargain. Banquet tables of 8 for seating; Free Simulcast Program & DRF on arrival (I asked for Sunday's, since I had already done my studying for the Saturday races). EASY to Get to via the MassPike($7 in tolls round-trip) from ANYWHERE! Check it out..you may be able to reserve spot from link in above posting(tell 'em BombsAwayBob sent ya'); or go to www.suffolkdowns.com (http://www.suffolkdowns.com/) for more info. :cool: GOOD LUCK & BOMBS AWAY, hope to see you there!

Richie---Philly is having the same NTRA contest this weekend. You do NOT have to go to Philly Park but can use one of the Turf Clubs. You have to sign up by Thursday and the entry fee is $100.00. So sign up and go to Valley Forge Turf Club so I can meet you and maybe Binder. :) Full details in the link.

I usually look for an empty chair(LOL)..I knew my "Free Ice Water" would get a chuckle..but it's better than $2 for every Poland Spring; & Suffolk doesn't carry my 'flavored water' of choice, "Silver Bullets":bang: (Ah, distributor intimidation!)
Seriously, the doors open before noon, & I won't get there until after 1pm (I get all scratches, weather, changes online at home first).So, I get the nearest seat to a Big-Screen that's not taken! - Peace, BOB

If I get there, I will be wandering around Legends, unless I
have to be in a certain area for the contest.

Will have my 2004 CHAMPIONS WORLD SERIES

RED SOX cap on!!!
