When we produce a race, we know what competitors are putting into showing up.
Their horse ๐ด
Fuel โฝ๏ธ
Entry fees ๐ฐ
Their timeโฐ
Plus wear and tear on your truck & trailer๐
And at the end of the day, we believe competitors deserve a fair opportunity to win money back. Thatโs why payout percentages matter.

.
But when a race pays less than that, the difference is money that isn't going back to the competitors.
Now add in little or no added money, and competitors may be putting in the same entry fees, fuel, time and horse, but have considerably less money available to compete for.
And honestly, as producers, that rubs us the wrong way.
Not because we think every race has to be exactly the same. Not because we're trying to tell anyone which races to attend.
But because we don't like seeing competitors put their money, time and their horse's run on the line without having a fair opportunity at the money being generated.

If you're hauling to a race, paying your entry fee and putting a run on your horse, you deserve to know what you're competing for. Whether itโs no added money, a 55% payout, $10,000 added, or 80% payout! (P.S. If you donโt know how to calculate a payout, we got you covered! Just ask and weโll be honest with you!)

๐ฐ Does payout percentage affect which races you enter?
๐ฐ Does added money matter?
๐ฐ At what point does the payout become too low to justify the entry fee and the cost of hauling?
