Washington Cup XI receives sponsorship boost | Emerald Downs

For the Reporter

With five new title sponsors on board, a rejuvenated Washington Cup will feature six stakes races ??each worth $50,000 ? on Sunday, Sept. 8, at Emerald Downs.

The new sponsorships have raised Washington Cup's aggregate stakes purses to $300,000, a substantial raise from the $215,000 offered the last several years.

Contributing $15,000 each are: Northwest Farms, Daily Racing Form, Comcast SportsNet, Jim Beam and Pegasus Training & Equine Rehabilitation Center.

"We're thrilled to announce these sponsorships," said Sophia McKee, Emerald Downs director of marketing. "It's gratifying to see so many people step forward with commitments to support Washington-bred horses.

"The end result is that our horsemen will be running for more money, and bigger purses help the state's breeding industry."

Founded in 2003, Washington Cup annually celebrates the state's long and storied tradition for producing talented Thoroughbreds. The Cup features two stakes apiece for 2-year-olds, 3-year-olds, and older horses.

Washington Cup has been a showcase for several of the state's all-time greatest Thoroughbreds. The list of Emerald Downs' champions to win WA Cup races includes Noosa Beach, Wasserman, Atta Boy Roy, Queenledo, Ladyledue, Music of My Soul and many more.
