ABR Betting Challenge Attracts Five Teams to Play for National, Local Causes

ABR's Dan Tordjman

Putting their skills on the line for their chosen charities, five teams will participate in the first ABR Charity Betting Challenge on the 2020 Breeders' Cup World Championships races this Friday and Saturday.

The teams and their charities are:

  • TEAM ABR: Dan Tordjman, Ren Carothers, Ellis Starr – The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation
  • TEAM KEENELAND: Tom Leach, Jim Goodman – Nourish
  • TEAM KSR: Matt Jones, Drew Franklin, Ryan Lemond – five Kentucky Sports Radio causes
  • TEAM TVG: TVG on-air talent – Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund
  • TEAM WLEX: Nancy Cox, Keith Farmer, Claire Couch – CHI Saint Joseph Health Foundation

Starting with a bankroll of $2,000, each team must bet on every race on both days and then donate all proceeds to their charity of choice. No charity will receive less than $2,000.

“We are delighted to be a part of this first-year event and hope it will be a staple for Breeders' Cup week going forward,” said Dan Tordjman, manager of partnerships and sponsorships, ABR.

“We hope to not only raise money for our charities, but also provide some wagering insights for fans to enjoy.”
