Del Mar Thoroughbred Club and Pechanga Resort & Casino have developed a partnership that will bring special benefits to customers of both venues in a unique arrangement, starting this summer.
The link between California's leading racetrack, which sits alongside the Pacific Ocean, and California's largest casino, located in the heart of the Temecula wine country, offers opportunities to enhance what both already do so well: present action-filled fun and challenges in the midst of two of the most scenic spots in the state.
"This is a perfect fit for us," said Del Mar's president and general manager Craig Fravel. "Pechanga is a first-class venue with a winning attitude -- the kind of place Del Mar people expect and appreciate. It's truly a mutually beneficial partnership."
Pechanga boasts a 517-room resort and spa, a 200,000-square-foot casino that is the largest in the western United States, eight restaurants, an intimate spa, a 1,200-seat theater, three nightclubs and lounges, a convention area with hospitality suites and meeting rooms, and the championship 18-hole Journey at Pechanga golf course, which has been ranked as one of the best new public courses in the nation.
"Pechanga is pleased to partner with Del Mar in order to enhance the amenities offered to our players and theirs," said John Palinkas, president of the Pechanga Development Corporation. "It was only a matter time before California's premier casino would join with California's premier racetrack to increase the world-class gaming opportunities that residents and tourists alike can enjoy."
Via the partnership, Del Mar customers will receive incentive offers at Pechanga such as discounts on food and beverage, hotel/golf packages and gaming benefits. In addition, Pechanga will customize specific offers for Del Mar's horsemen, including an industry poker event.
Pechanga's most loyal patrons also will be "winners" via the newly announced partnership. Members of The Club, Pechanga's rewards program, will receive Del Mar perks such as free admission and seating on select days.
Del Mar and Pechanga also are teaming up to provide racing fans with the track's highly anticipated giveaway of custom glassware, featuring champion Zenyatta, at the track on Saturday, August 7. Zenyatta, currently a perfect 17-for-17 in her remarkable racing career, is expected to be on hand that afternoon and possibly even be the favorite in the afternoon's feature, the Grade I, $300,000 Clement L. Hirsch Stakes.
Del Mar's 37-day season is off and running on Wednesday, July 21.
