"Last year it was an all-star cast," said Michael Morrissey, president of Stadium Jumping and American Gold Cup organizer. "We wanted everyone to have a good experience and go away thinking this was the climax of the season. We feel we really accomplished that. This year, we are particularly excited to share The American Gold Cup in this incredible venue to a national television audience."
"NBC Sports Network's coverage offers a rare opportunity for sponsors and advertisers to reach an incredibly large, mainstream audience," continued Morrissey. "We encourage interested sponsors and advertisers to contact us about this unique marketing opportunity."
"The American Gold Cup is a prestigious equestrian event and we are happy to provide coverage to our viewers on NBC Sports Network," said Mike Perman, Vice President, Programming, NBC Sports Group.
Following last year's enormous success, Old Salem Farm in New York's Westchester County, will again serve as the picturesque setting for the American Gold Cup. Old Salem Farm offers state-of-the-art facilities surrounded by 120 gorgeous acres. In 2012, the North American Riders Group (NARG) named The American Gold Cup one of the Top 25 Best Horse Shows in North America. The owners at Old Salem have made many renovations over the past few years to create one of the most extraordinary show facilities in the world.
The American Gold Cup scheduled for September 11-15, 2013 will feature a full array of jumper classes, including sections for Children and Adult Jumpers, Low and High Junior/Amateur Jumpers, plus the Open Jumpers. New this year, the ASPCA Maclay Regional Championships will be held on Saturday evening in the Old Salem Farm indoor arena. The featured event, the coveted $200,000 American Gold Cup, will be held on Sunday September 15, 2013 and broadcast on NBC Sports Network the following Sunday, September 22, 2013
