The “Beat Byk NHC Challenge,” the popular promotion involving Steve Byk, host of the Thoroughbred radio news magazine “At the Races” on Sirius XM, returns this coming Saturday, July 16, with a lucrative new wrinkle. In addition to winning a berth in the National Horseplayers Championship (NHC) next March in Las Vegas, the grand prize winner of the “Beat Byk NHC Challenge” will be eligible to compete at the NHC for a “$1,000,000 Beat Byk NHC Bonus, presented by John Unick of Insurance Office of America (IOA).”
The “Beat Byk NHC Challenge” will be conducted over eight weeks beginning this Saturday and concluding September 4. Each week throughout the promotion, Byk will select the weekend stakes races to comprise that week's promotion and announce them on “At the Races” and on his twitter page, @Steve_Byk. Byk's selections will be announced no later than each Friday.
There will be 16 chances during the promotional period for fans to qualify to the Beat Byk NHC Online Qualifier on September 17. Listeners will be encouraged to log into https://www.ntra.com/beatbyk/ where they will either use Byk's selection to win the featured race or try to 'beat Byk' by selecting another horse.
All who correctly select the winning horse in at least one round will advance to the September 17 online qualifier where the grand prize winner will be determined. Participants may qualify only once during the promotional period. In addition to winning a berth at the NHC, the grand prize winner of the “Beat Byk” online qualifier will represent “At the Races” at the 2023 NHC March 10-12 at the newly rebranded Horseshoe Las Vegas (formerly Bally's), where he or she will compete for the “$1,000,000 Beat Byk NHC Bonus, presented by John Unick of Insurance Office of America (IOA).”
NHC Tour membership is required to compete in the September NHC online qualifier. Complete rules for the “Beat Byk NHC Challenge” and “$1,000,000 Beat Byk NHC Bonus, presented by John Unick of Insurance Office of America (IOA)” can be found at https://www.ntra.com/beatbyk/.
