      Location: Oklahoma | I have tossed around the idea of going the past few years. I know they give away a lot of nice prizes but I have NEVER seen an actual payout. Would like to know the opinions of those who have been. Thanks!! |

| They have some added money each go and in the finals. I do not think it is a lot of added money. Since the competition comes from all over the US, it is tough. A lot of the time the winner is someone from E TX. The competition is tough around here. Lots of fun and you can see how your horse competes against really tough competition. They do run slow though, about 30 per hour. Bring a raincoat. |

I have never seen the payout listed with the results. I've always wondered what it paid. |

    Location: East Texas | Payouts are ok. My daughter has run there the last few years. We only live about 45 minutes from there so it works out great for us. I think there are 400+ runs (I couldn't find a draw or payout list). The format is 2 go rounds on Friday and Saturday then 80 (top 10 in each D from both days) get to run on Sunday. The top 10 in each D on Sunday get prizes and/or cash (top 5 maybe get $).
She ran in both the reunion and jr world last year and won money both weekends. One weekend she won a couple hundred, and the other she won about $1,500. That is placing both rounds in the 3D on Friday and Saturday, but was out of the 2D money on Sunday. She also got some paint incentive money as well.
Hoped that helped a little. Win or lose it is a different atmosphere than most any other jackpot style event, and my daughter loves going.

I think the reunion is for anyone that has attended a clinic and the jr world is open to anyone under 21 |
