FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JUNE 16, 2009
NEW TRIFECTA CHAMPIONSHIP FOR BARREL RACING FUTURITIES!Through combined efforts of the MBRA Futurity, MN Lakes Futurity and Hawki Futurity THE TRIFECTA has been formed for 2009! Thus offering THE TRIFECTA title, reserve championship and 3rd place finish for hi-point winners competing in all 3 futurity events.
Each of the three event producers will add $10 per horse for every horse that competes in all 3 futurity events. 100% of this money will be paid back (split 50-30-20) to the top 3 hi-point winners overall in addition to prizes and titles for 2009. (for point system and rules see websites)
"We look at this as one more way for producers to work together to further promote the futurity and barrel horse industry and give back to contestants that are supporting our events." says producer Renea Bolling. "More cash – more prizes - more titles to win – and no extra fees for the contestants!" The idea originated with producer Erin Bayer, with the MBRA Futurity who will host the first of 3 legs of THE TRIFECTA in Fergus Falls, MN July 24-26, 2009.
