The Pegasus World Cup is undergoing some significant changes for the fourth running of what was once the world’s richest horse race. This year the Pegasus will have a $3,000,000 purse funded by the racetrack. The race will be an invitational and no Lasix will be permitted. The slot purchasing system which was used to fund the prior huge purses is being done away with, at least for now and maybe for good.
The anticipated field for the Pegasus World Cup has not changed. Here are the horses considering the race:
Maximum Security
Omaha Beach
McKinzie
Midnight Bisou
Spun to Run
Elate
Bravazo
Higher Power
Gunnevera
Roadster
Tacitus
War Story
Should the race draw even a few of these it would shape up to be a nice field. The Pegasus Turf purse is $1,000,000 and will also be run under similar conditions.
