Become Part Of A Horse Racing Partnership For As Little As 55¢

888poker.com and Circuit Racing enjoy a fantastic partnership and one that has allowed some players on 888poker.com to own a share of race horses for as little as 55¢!

In April 2012, Circuit Racing purchased a new race horse named Blazing Knight, and already the horse has already started to reward his 888poker.com shareholders by winning his first race; finishing first over six furlongs at a meeting in Wolverhamption in October 2012.

Blazing Knight had already finished in third place four previous times, and had a second-place finish to his name before his Wolverhampton victory. All the signs are there that he will continue to yield great results, and therefore profits for those who own a share of him. You could be one of those shareholders by winning your stake in the 888poker.com exclusive tournaments. Look out for them in the 888poker lobby under the "Special" tab.
