When the Delaware Legislature passed
a law in 2006 that allowed Winterthur to offer cash purses, Point-to-Point became sanctioned by the National Steeplechase Association. Today, the course is a challenging 1.5-mile figure-eight run twice over 17 timber fences. Races include the Isabella du Pont Sharp Memorial ($20,000 purse), the Winterthur Bowl ($25,000 purse), the Vicmead Plate in Honor
of Louis “Paddy” Neilson III ($15,000 purse) and the Middletown Cup.
