Welcome to the International Gold Cup!
Good luck, all, with the Year XII International Gold Cup!
There has been an International Gold Cup Challenge Series added! It is a miniature World Racing Series Championship. Whichever stable gets the most point during this year's IGC will win a special prize! (Note: First Faith Thoroughbreds is exempt from participating in this competition)
ALSO NOTE: If you would like to see any races added to the schedule or have any problems finding races for certain types of horses, let me know NOW so I can modify the schedule for next year!
