The 2021 All American Cup Stallion Showcase and Auction will be held in a socially distant, in-person setting on January 23, 2021. The AAC has announced a return to the lifeblood of the industry by holding the event at an American Saddlebred barn. In honor of two great legends lost this year, Jim Aikman and Dr. Scott Bennett, AAC has announced a return to the training facility that formerly housed Alliance Stud, now home to Lead Way Farm. New owners Andre and Caitlin van Schalkwyk have offered to host the 2021 event, and AAC is excited to get back to what everyone loves the most - show horses, entertainment, and one heck-of-an auction.
In order to provide a COVID-safe environment, AAC has implemented the following precautions to ensure the safety of its guests:

PRADA CUP
Following New York Yacht Club American Magic informing the Regatta Director that they will not be racing in Round Robins 3 and 4 of the PRADA Cup this weekend, the racing schedule has been revised as follows:
Saturday 23rd of January 2021 – Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli vs INEOS TEAM UK – Start at 16:00 NZT
Sunday 24th of January 2021 – INEOS TEAM UK vs Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli – Start at 16:00 NZT
In order to comply with the formality of the Regulations, after finishing the above races both competitors will have to take the start of a “ghost race” vs New York Yacht Club American Magic to allow the Regatta Director to award the point to the relevant team. The “ghost race” will then be suspended just a few minutes after the start. The rule of 25 minutes between the two starts will not apply to these “ghost races”.
Should INEOS TEAM UK win the Saturday race, the Sunday race result will be redundant as INEOS TEAM UK would be the first classified team of the Round Robins and, as such, will go directly through to the PRADA Cup Final. In that event the two teams will have the choice whether or not to race on Sunday.
