Gosford Race Club is to sponsor two riders in the inaugural Equimillion equestrian competition to be held in Sydney in October.
Racing NSW and Equestrian Australia have joined forces to create the inaugural $1M Equimillion competition exclusively for retired NSW thoroughbred racehorses.
Over $1M in prizemoney will be distributed across four disciplines – Eventing, Showjumping, Dressage and Show Horse – awarded to Junior, Amateur and Open Professional Competitors within each division.
The inaugural event will be held at the Sydney International Equestrian Centre on the October long weekend.
Gosford will be offering two sponsorships to the value of $1,100 per rider to cover the cost of nomination ($600+GST) and competition fee ($400+GST).
To be eligible to apply for Gosford Race Club funding, applicants must have completed one or more of the following conditions: have ridden trackwork for a registered Gosford trainer within the last 12 months, worked for a registered Gosford trainer within the last 12 months, or owned or competed with a thoroughbred racehorse that has raced or trained at Gosford in the last five years.
