California Chrome LLC, the owners of 2014 Horse of the Year and current GI Breeders' Cup Classic favorite California Chrome (Lucky Pulpit), have created a contest named the California Chrome Breeders' Cup Sweepstakes, offering racing fans an opportunity to win a trip to the World Championships at Santa Anita Nov. 4-5, it was announced Wednesday. All proceeds from the Sweepstakes, which includes two Breeders' Cup tickets and two round-trip commercial flights from anywhere in the continental United States to Los Angeles, will benefit the V Foundation for Cancer Research.
“With a portion of California Chrome's earnings already being donated to The V Foundation, we also wanted to hold other special events to raise charitable donations for the Foundation,” said Duncan Taylor, President and CEO at Taylor Made Stallions, which co-owns California Chrome with Perry and Denise Martin. “We believe this sweepstakes gives everyone a chance to win an experience of a lifetime with California Chrome while generating donations to help continue funding cancer research.”
In order to enter, contestants can visit the California Chrome “World's Richest Racehorse” website and make a donation to the V Foundation. The minimum donation is $25, and for each increment of $25, the contestant receives an additional 25 entries. The deadline for donations is Oct. 24, and a winner will be chosen Oct. 25.
