Fasig-Tipton Continues Best Turned Out Sponsorship at Saudi Cup

[Wandering Eyes]

Fasig-Tipton will sponsor a world-record Best Turned-Out prize of SAR10,000 (US$2,666) for the world's richest race, the $20-million G1 Saudi Cup Feb. 22 at King Abdulaziz Racecourse. Fasig-Tipton, which also sponsored the award in 2024, will also sponsor a Best Turned Out Award during Friday's card at the Riyadh racetrack, making for a total reward of SAR40,000 ($10,665) over 16 races to the winning entrants' grooms. In addition to the grand prize, SAR2,500 ($667) will be awarded in 11 races over the two days.

Fasig-Tipton will be represented on site by Anna Seitz, the company's director of client relations, and Michael Adolphson, its Middle East representative, who will judge the contests.

“We are delighted to once again team up with Fasig-Tipton to reward the hardest-working people in the racing industry–the stable staff,” said Christopher Bevan, Chief Commercial Officer of the Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia. “It is a pleasure to welcome Fasig-Tipton back to King Abdulaziz Racecourse for a second year in a row.”

Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning added, “The Saudi Cup continues to excel on the global stage and Fasig-Tipton is thrilled and honored to take part in one of the world's great race meetings, especially with so many horsemen in the region having supported Fasig-Tipton. We are thankful to the Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia for, not only being part of our growing relationship with the Middle East, but also for allowing us to reward those who work so hard taking such care of these great athletes.”
