DerbyWars offers $10,000 online harness contest, WHHC spots Saturday
DerbyWars.com, horse racing’s leading contest site, will host its first-ever $10,000 Harness contest including two World Harness Handicapping Championship (WHHC) seats on Saturday, Dec. 2, featuring racing from the Meadowlands and Woodbine.
The $10,000 contest offers a $4,000 first prize, plus two $1,000 entry seats to the $75,000 WHHC presented by DerbyWars at the Meadowlands on April 28, 2018. The entry fee is $230, with the $10,000 prize pool based on 50 entries.
Players may qualify for as little as $19 every night on DerbyWars.com, or on Saturday night during the early races. A full list of qualifiers for the $10,000 Harness contest and the WHHC can be found at https://www.derbywars.com/tournaments/list/whhc.
The $10,000 game will consist of the second half of the races at the Meadowlands and Woodbine starting at approximately 9:30 p.m. ET. The format is a mythical $2 Win-Place-Show contest, where players will pick one horse in each race over 12 races and earn payouts equivalent to $2 Win-Place-Show payouts at the track, subject to maximum payouts.

• Gary Respecki, MI
• Travis Foelsch, CA
