DerbyWars™ Begins NHC Pre-Qualifying Tournaments

August 3 marks the official start of DerbyWars NHC Qualifying tournaments, but the opportunity to secure seats in those tournaments is already underway.

DerbyWars NHC Qualifiers in August will each be limited to eleven players, offering a rare opportunity to compete for a coveted NHC seat against just ten foes.

Players can secure their spot in a DerbyWars NHC Qualifying tournament by successfully competing in pre-qualifying tournaments held on DerbyWars. Pre-qualifying tournaments offer DerbyWars players a uniquely affordable opportunity to compete for the chance to earn an NHC seat at price-points not frequently offered by other NHC tournament hubs.

“DerbyWars is excited to host an NHC qualifying structure which offers the DerbyWars contest community the chance to compete for an NHC seat at affordable prices,” said Mark Midland, CEO and Co-founder of DerbyWars. “The chance to compete for an NHC seat versus only ten opponents is also something not found anywhere else. Once you’ve made it to the NHC Qualifier, you have pretty good odds.”

The first DerbyWars NHC prequalifying contest was held on Sunday, June 30. 2011 NHC third-place finisher Tom Anderson came away with the win and will face ten competitors in the first DerbyWars NHC Qualifier on August 3.

More prequalifying contests will be held as the August tournaments draw near, but several prequalifying contests are just around the corner, beginning with two slated to take place on Sunday, July 7. Entry fees and maximum number of entries will vary by pre-qualifying tournament.

Each Saturday in August will feature a DerbyWars NHC Qualifying tournament, beginning on Saturday, August 3. The top prize for each of the five events will be one seat in the DRF/NTRA National Handicapping Championship next January, as well as hotel accommodations at Treasure Island during the NHC and a $400 cash travel stipend. The runner-up in each NHC Qualifier will receive automatic entry into the following week’s NHC Qualifier.

It is the culmination of a year-long series of NTRA-sanctioned local tournaments conducted by racetracks, casino racebooks, off-track betting facilities and horse racing and handicapping websites, each of which sends its top qualifiers to the national finals. Each year, the NHC winner joins other human and equine champions as an honoree at the Eclipse Awards. The 14 NHC Champions since the event’s inception, in chronological order, are Steven Walker, Judy Wagner, Herman Miller, Steve Wolfson Jr., Kent Meyer, Jamie Michelson, Ron Rippey, Stanley Bavlish, Richard Goodall, John Conte, Brian Troop, John Doyle, Michael Beychok and Jim Benes.
