Horse Racing Fantasy Community

Being a big fan of horse racing and horse racing fans, I was so excited to join this team last year. Now that the new tournament system is up and running, it's great to watch the players jockeying and betting their way to victory and building up those community points. I'm sure in no time we'll have more than a hundred active tournaments going on - and then soon five hundred - which is great! There are going to be plenty of tournaments for our free general members who earn their points through regular game play and free offers. But, the really cool prizes (like autographed memorabilia, tickets to the major racing venues such as the 2009 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs and all the other Triple Crown races), not just community points, are only accessible through our VIP membership. Don't get me wrong, I guess as a general member, you can earn enough points to purchase really cool stuff in our Shop - but the VIPs, they will be able to play for them right off the bat. Right now I'm putting together some cool tournaments that will have multiple qualification rounds. I'll be providing more details about these over the next couple of weeks. I'll start some special jockey and bettor VIP tournaments by early next week. So, all VIP and general members, check the schedule constantly. You'll also receive notifications via in-game messages through the new horse racing game main menu screen or through emails.

When playing in tournaments, read the tournament conditions carefully. Just because you qualify doesn't necessarily mean it's a tournament you want to enter. As you play, you'll learn more and more about the tournaments and which ones make sense for you. If you need any help, view the help videos or ask your fellow members in the community. And, of course, you can always post a question to my blog or private message me. So, one last time, our VIP program, at least when it comes to tournaments, will really be stacked up with some cool stuff.

Safe racing - have fun - and may all your tournaments be winning ones!
