America’s Best Racing’s Fan Choice Awards returns for 2022 better than ever with exciting, fresh categories and a sweepstakes that will whisk one lucky fan and a guest to a marquee race of their choosing. Also new for 2022, America’s Best Racing will make a donation on behalf of each Fan Choice Awards winner to a horse-racing related charity of their choosing.

Of course, the most important component of the Fan Choice Awards is you, the horse racing fan, who determines the winner of each of the 10 categories. So, be sure to make your voice heard when the voting opens Nov. 10.

Voting runs through Nov. 17, and all voters will automatically be registered for a sweepstakes that will land one lucky fan and guest a trip to their choice of one of the 2023 Triple Crown events or the Breeders’ Cup World Championships with tickets, travel accommodations, a $250 betting credit, and new fashion stylings courtesy of CamHats and Old Smoke. It’s free to participate and you could find yourself enjoying the VIP treatment at one of next year’s marquee horse racing events.

“For the fourth year in a row, we couldn’t be happier for the fans to decide who will receive the honors in the 2022 Fan Choice Awards,” said Stephen B. Panus, president, TJC Media Ventures, Inc./America’s Best Racing. “Thoroughbred racing fans are passionate, avid, and have strong opinions, and we thank the fans for all their support, fandom, and wagering.

Moreover, one lucky winner will receive the trip of a lifetime to the event of their choosing thanks to America’s Best Racing.”
