Maryland-Based Horses Sweep MATCH Titles
When the majority of partners in the Mid-Atlantic Thoroughbred Championships (MATCH Series) decided in late 2020 not to hold the series for a second straight year because of lingering COVID-19 uncertainty, the MTHA and MJC began discussions to consider a scaled-down event that would use only stakes in Maryland.

At its September 9 open Board meeting, the Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association (MTHA) Board of Directors voted unanimously to increase the purse allocation for finishers from 6th place through last in overnight races. The payout, which had been fixed at $300 since April 2022, will now rise to $500, effective immediately.
