“A champion is someone who does not settle for that day's practice, that day's competition, that day's performance. They are always striving to be better. They don't live in the past.”
– Briana Scurry
It’s been 30 years since the United States delivered a Triple Crown winner, and nearly 40 in the United Kingdom – only six have ever won this, the Holy Grail of racing-titles, in Japan.
All around the world, in every corner where thoroughbred champions are celebrated, only a select few have achieved this royal status.
It’s been a long time coming. . .
7 YEARS OF DREAMING, DARING AND PLAYING.

We are thrilled to celebrate 7 years of leading the way in online gambling by introducing our 5th successive feature promotion. . .
TRIPLE CROWN
Our new Triple Crown Promotion will be held annually, allowing for champions to return and defend their title. Another $60,000 in cash, bonuses and prizes are up for grabs, including a fabulous Grand Prize for our thoroughbred Champion.
Unlike SUPERNOVA! and PIT BOSS, GrandPrive.com’s Triple Crown event will not feature tickets, or draws. . . this is a competition to find the best of the best, the meanest, fastest, toughest gamers of them all.
And we’ve made it a whole lot shorter.
IN SEARCH OF PEDIGREE

• 1 (one) Point will be earned for every $100 wagered on any slots game.
• 1 (one) Point will be earned for every $400 wagered on any table game.
