Wikipedia / Weatherbys Super Sprint

|} The Weatherbys Super Sprint is a flat horse race in Great Britain open to two-year-old thoroughbreds. It is run at Newbury over a distance of 5 furlongs and 34 yards (1,037 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in July.

History

The event was established in 1991, and it was initially called the Newbury Sales Super Sprint Trophy. It was designed for horses sold as yearlings by public auction for less than a specified price. The concept was devised by Lord Carnarvon and Richard Hannon Sr.

The weight carried by a horse in the Weatherbys Super Sprint is determined by its sale price, with one pound deducted for each £5,000 below the maximum value.
