Digicel has once again flexed its corporate muscle for the Guyana Cup.
For the fifth consecutive year, the telecommunications giant has agreed to sponsor the E & Lower Class event. The company will be donating the grand prize and the winner’s trophy for that race.
The sponsorship became official yesterday after Louanna Abrams, Digicel’s Sponsorship Executive, handed over the pact to Compton Sancho, one of the Coordinators of 10th Annual Guyana Cup.
Meanwhile, in excess of $30M will be up for grabs when the Port Mourant Turf Club in Collaboration with Jumbo Jet Auto Sales presents the annual fixture on Sunday.
Nine races are carded for the event.
A record $4M will go to the stable owners of the winner of the feature race (A& Lower1800m) race. The second prize will be $2M while the third prize stable will pocket $1M.
Big names will compete at ‘Big Yard’ when activities get underway from noon.
According to Sancho, steeds like King’s Knight, Scores Even and 2014/2015 winner of the Guyana Cup, CP Got Even will be in the starting gate. See you there.
