Racing SA has today released the important lead up races to their Spring feature race meeting, Sportsbet Finals Day, to be run at Morphettville on Saturday 23rd November, 2024.
With a total of nine finals on the day, six at prizemoney of $105,000, almost $1 million prizemoney is up for grabs in what promises to be a bumper day of Spring racing at Morphettville.
Following the successful initiative commenced last year, all series heats of the Country Sprint Final (1200 metres) and Country Mile (1600 metres) will be conducted solely in outlying country areas of South Australia, giving those horses and connections the chance to qualify for the metropolitan finals at Morphettville.
“This series gives horses of all classes and from regional areas an opportunity to race on our biggest stage at Morphettville, at an ideal time of the year in our racing calendar”, said Racing SA CEO Vaughn Lynch.
“We are pleased that Sportsbet has come on board to partner with the thoroughbred racing industry in South Australia, to ensure we have a high class day of racing with excellent prizemoney on offer,” he added.
Sportsbet’s Chief Financial Officer, Nathan Arundell, was also excited with the prospect of a great day of Finals racing in the South Australian capital:
“From the country to the city, South Australian racing continues to go from strength to strength. Sportsbet is fully committed to helping grow the industry and the big prizemoney on offer for Sportsbet Finals Day is another great example of that,” Arundell said.
In another important programming change to bolster the day, the Riziz Colts, Geldings and Entires Final will mirror the Viddora Series Final for Fillies and Mares, both now to be run over 1200 metres.
