TwinSpires.com, a sponsor of The Downey Profile, is offering its players an opportunity to win up to $1 million by betting the Kentucky Derby preps and the Triple Crown with TwinSpires.com.
 
The Triple Crown Showdown challenges players to make a winning $20 show bet on a series of 20 Kentucky Derby prep races starting with the Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds this Saturday, Feb. 25. If a player survives all 20 Kentucky Derby prep races, they qualify for a chance to win the $1 million top prize by sweeping all three legs of the Triple Crown.  
 
“Making TwinSpires.com your home to bet the Kentucky Derby preps and the Triple Crown could make you a millionaire,” Jeremy Clemons, TwinSpires.com Vice President of Marketing said.  “We are excited to continue our tradition of offering players innovative opportunities to win through the $1-million Triple Crown Showdown.”

“As illustrated by TwinSpires.com player Michael Beychok winning the National Handicapping Championship in January, TwinSpires.com players are among the most skilled and talented players in racing.”  Clemons said.  “The Triple Crown Showdown will certainly challenge our players' skills and reward them handsomely for success.”
