Last updated: 5/27/15 2:30 PM


On the heels of strong growth in 2014, Breeders’ Cup has
launched its 2015 “Million Dollar Finish” fantasy game with more prizes and
opportunities to win than ever before throughout the Breeders’ Cup Challenge
Series: “Win & You’re In.”

During each of the 10 national broadcasts of the
Breeders’ Cup Challenge Series on NBC and NBC SN, the fantasy player with the
highest score for each designated race will win a once-in-a-lifetime VIP trip
for two to the sold-out 2015 Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Keeneland in Lexington, Kentucky. Along with the 10 chances to win during the
Challenge Series, fans can enter for a shot at the ultimate prize of $1 million
during the Breeders’ Cup World Championships by predicting the correct order for
the top 10 finishers in the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1), which will air on
Saturday, October 31, on NBC.

Million Dollar Finish offers fans the opportunity to enter
their top picks in the most prominent races taking place at some of the best
tracks across the country and nationally broadcast on NBC and NBCSN. The game is
free to enter and play, and fans can register and submit their picks for each
race online at
http://www.milliondollarfinish.com/.

The first chance for fans to
participate during the 2015 season will be on June 6 in the Belmont S. (G1), where
American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile) will vie for his place in history by becoming the first Triple
Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978.

“Million Dollar Finish has served as a great new digital
platform for fan engagement throughout our Challenge Series and we’re excited to
up the ante this year by offering a true “Win and You’re In” opportunity for our
fans to the sold-out 2015 Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Keeneland,” said
Justin McDonald, Breeders’ Cup vice president of marketing & digital media.

“The number of fantasy players more than doubled year-over-year in 2014 and
we’re positioned for similar growth again this year with even more incentive for
fans to follow along throughout the season-long Win & You’re In Series.”
