July 15, 2015 – Qualifiers are now available at HorseTourneys.com to the Orleans Fall Classic, a major handicapping tournament to be held at the Orleans Hotel and Casino on October 8-10 in Las Vegas.  The first qualifier at HorseTourneys will be held this Saturday, July 18.

One of the major fall stops on the handicapping tournament circuit, the Orleans Fall Classic is a three-day marathon, run under the standard $2 Win/Place format and covering several major tracks.  An all-optional event, players may play races from any eligible tracks up to their maximum allowed per day.

The entry fee for the Orleans Fall Classic is $500.  Qualifiers at HorseTourneys afford players the opportunity to qualify for this event for a fraction of the entry fee.  HorseTourneys will also offer full package qualifiers, which include travel reimbursement to offset travel and hotel fees.

Entry only qualifiers begin Saturday, July 18, with a $58 entry fee, one entry awarded per 10 entries participating.  Daily feeders into qualifiers are available for $16.

HorseTourneys will announce to players once full package qualifiers have begun.  Questions should be directed to HorseTourneys Customer Support.

HorseTourneys qualifiers Timothy Brokl and Anthony Kite turned in nice showings at the recent Arlington Park Handicapping Challenge, held July 12 at Arlington Park.  Starting with a $2,000 bankroll, Brokl turned his bets into $6,286, with Kite just behind at $5,607.  Both players earned their way into Arlington’s contest through qualifiers at HorseTourneys with entry fees of only $98, which translates into quite healthy profit for both players.  Well done.

Please note that I will be out of the office from June 2 through 15.  Any issues should be directed to the Customer Support form or to support@horsetourneys.com via email. All withdrawal requests will still be accommodated, but please note that check requests may take a little longer to process.  Still, most checks should be processed and mailed within 48 hours of receipt.

The rest of the HorseTourneys staff is able and prepared to handle any of your needs in my absence.  I hope you have a great Belmont weekend.
