Turfway Park and Woodbine Entertainment have teamed up to create the All-Weather Winners Challenge series with winners of designated stakes at each track earning automatic entry with nomination and entry fees paid to stakes across the border. The new series begins in 2020, with the first eligible winners coming from Woodbine's GIII Grey S. and GIII Mazarine S.
Turfway's two key races figure prominently in the arrangement with the winner of the GIII Jeff Ruby Steaks S. Earning berth to the Mazarine and the Bourbonette Oaks winner earning a spot in Woodbine's GIII Selene S. The winner of the 2019 Grey earned a spot in the Jeff Ruby and the 2019 Mazarine winner was awarded a spot in the Bourbonette.
“We look forward to working with Woodbine to drive fresh interest in featured races at both tracks and showcase the value of racing on all-weather surfaces,” said Chip Bach, general manager of Turfway Park. “I appreciate Tyler's and Stu's initiative in making this happen.”
