How to Play

1. Choose one Horse to reach the Top 2 Finishing Positions (you're not selecting if they win or lose).

2. Choose the Horse that will face your first selection in the Top 2 Finishing Positions.

3. From the 2 Horses you selected, choose the Top 2 Finishing Positions Winner. This is for tiebreaker purposes only.

How to Win

Both Your Horses Reach the Top 2 Finishing Positions.

The player that correctly predicts the 2 Horses to reach the Top 2 Finishing Positions, regardless of which Horse wins, is the sole winner and the game is over.

Tiebreaker: If two or more players correctly predict the final 2 Horses, the tiebreaker is to correctly predict theTop 2 Finishing Positions Winner. If there are multiple players with the same Top 2 Finishing Positions Winner, it will end as a tie, there will be multiple winners and the game is over.

1st Tiebreaker: Correctly Predict the Winner

If no player correctly predicts both Horses to reach the Top 2 Finishing Positions, the player that correctly predicts the Winner will be declared the winner and the game is over.

Tiebreaker: If two or more players correctly predict the Winner, the player with best Combined Ranking Score (Total of ranking position of both Horses. If multiple players have the same Combined Ranking Score, it will end as a tie, there will be multiple winners and the game is over.

2nd Tiebreaker: Best Combined Ranking Score - Must have a Horse in the Top 2 Finishing Positions to Qualify

If no player correctly predicts the Top 2 Finishing Positions Winner, the player that correctly predicts a Horse in the Last 2 and has the best Combined Ranking Score will be declared the winner and the game is over. If multiple players have the same Combined Ranking Score, it will end as a tie, there will be multiple winners and the game is over.

Final Tiebreaker: Best Combined Ranking Score.

If no player has a Horse to reach the Top 2 Finishing Positions, the final tiebreaker is the player with the best Combined Ranking Score. If multiple players have the same Combined Ranking Score, it will end as a tie, there will be multiple winners and the game is over.

Rules

1. You change your picks as often as you wish prior to each deadline. No one can see your selections prior to each deadline.

2. After each deadline, no other changes can be made. The Game Manager will not be able to change or add picks for you after a deadline has passed.

3. If you fail to make a pick for the first deadline, the system will automatically remove you from the Game.

4. If you miss the second or third Staggered deadline, you are not eliminated from the Game.

5. If you miss the second deadline when Staggered Deadlines are used, the system will assign No Pick. The Ranking Score assigned is equal to the worst value within the game.

6. If the tiebreaker deadline is missed, the system will automatically assign the second selection for the tiebreaker selection also. If the second selection was a No Pick, the system will assign the first selection for the tiebreaker selection.

The game will offer all the horses entered in this race to choose from. Check back frequently as horses are scratched. Note: there will not be multiple horses under one selection. Each horse will be an individual choice.

  • Each horse is assigned a negative score in the order they finish; the exact same number is the results, only negative.
  • The winning horse is assigned the value of 0.
  • All horses that scratch or don't actually run will be assigned a score one worse than the score of the last place finisher
  • If you fail to make a selection (No Pick) you will be assigned the same score as a horse that doesn't run

The scores for each of your 2 Horses is added together to determine your Combined Ranking Score. The lower the negative number, the better you finish in the Standings. This is also used as second tie breaker to determine the winner if is needed.

The scoring is as follows:

Winner
Score = 0

Second Place Horse
Score = -2

Each horse to follow will earn a worse negative score in the order in which they finish.

Any horse in the list that doesn't race is assigned the same score as the No Pick value.

No Pick
Score = TBD; this will change as the number of horses change.

NOTE: This numeric scoring is used ONLY for tiebreakers. Choosing both or one of the correct 2 Horses, or the Derby Winner takes priority over this scoring when determining the order of player finishes.
