Record Purses Offered in Texas for Paint Horse Racing
They say legends are born in Texas. We say they also race there―for legendary purses. Gillespie County Fairgrounds, Retama Park and Lone Star Park are offering more over- night races and more added money.
The G.C.F.A. Juvenile and Maturity will take place July 16 at Gillespie County Fair- grounds with $25,000 added to the futurity, $20,000 added to the maturity and a $8,000 incentive to the top three accredited Texas- bred Paint Horses.
Retama Park will host the trials for the Colors of the Alamo Futurity on August 3 and the finals on August 19. Thanks to the Texas Paint Horse Breeders Association, an additional $35,000 will be added to the futu- rity and $12,000 to the top three Texas-bred Paint Horses.
More than $50,000 was added to the Texas Hero Futurity at Lone Star Park, push- ing the projected purse to $85,000. Texas Hero Trials will be held on November 26 leading to the finals on December 17.
