no the purse is determinded on the race when you bet you get some money fromo the purse if the horse u bet on wins Actually, the Purse has nothing to do with the amount of money wagered in a horse race. The Handle is the total amount wagered on that race and after the track takes some out and the taxes are removed then the rest is divied up among the winning tickets. These are called Pools and there is one for each style/type of bet (Win Pool, Place Pool, Show Pool, Exacta Pool, Trifecta Pool, Pick 3 Pool, etc).
The Dubai Cup has a US$10 Million purse making it the richest race in the world. The race is held at Meydan Race Track in Dubai, UAE.
10% of the purse if you are the winner and any other place you only get $100. So if you win a race with a purse of $100,000 you would bring home $10,000.
after sponsorship anywher between 450,000 to 3 million
This will vary because of several factors. No race is the same. So the purse for the race is not the same. Each place will have its own winnings. The closer to the #1 spot you place in the race, the more the prise money.
22 percent of the whole ,the pole winner win the race. This takes place in races like NASCAR and DAYTONA . They are car races .
In 2011 they receive a "purse" which is their prize money, with $528,000. They will also receive a red truck:D
The winner's share of the May 7 race will account for 62 percent of the guaranteed purse, or at least $1.24 million. The purse for the Derby has been $1 million guaranteed since 1996.
It is a different amount with each win. The winner gets a percentage of the purse for that specific race. Each race has a different total purse. The Daytona 500 is the largest payout. For example, the 2010 Daytona 500 winner Jamie McMurray won $1,508,450. The next week, race winner Jimmie Johnson won $333,103 at Auto Club Speedway in California.
