Daily Online Horse Handicapping Contests
Pit your skills against other horse enthusiasts for a chance to win big cash prizes! One entry fee gives you betting action for the entire day. Daily FREE contests are also available.
How do contests work?
Contests run with the following Wager Type structures:
- Win, Place, Show
- Win, Place
- Win only
- Exacta
- Eliminator
- Pro Series
Each contest will have rules defining:
- Wager Type
- Entry Fee
- Which tracks are in each contest
- The number of wagers that can be made
- The denominations of each wager
- The payout structure
- The minimum number of players
There will be several contests each day and add more and more contests to our lineup as we expand our offerings. We want to give our players a wide variety of contests to play in. On any given day, you may see several $25 - WP (where $25 is the Entry Fee and WP are the wager types) contests and several $50 WPS contests. You may play in as many contests as you want, but you can only play once in each contest.
[Note: If the minimum number of players has not been met, the contest will be declared VOID after the first race in the contest is official. All entry fees will be refunded.]
How do contests pay out?
The total contest pool for any contest is Number of Players x Entry Fee:
- $50 Entry Fee x 50 Players = $2,500
- $10 Entry Fee x 50 Players = $500
An example of one contest payout structure is as follows:
- 1st - 50%
- 2nd - 25%
- 3rd - 10%
- 4th - 5%
The winner will receive 50% of the total pool (after takeout).
An example of one of the many variations of contests are:
- This contest runs for 1 day
- The contest wager type is WPS
- Contest tracks: AQU / CRC
- Each player can make a maximum of 6 wagers. There is no penalty nor benefit for unused wagers.
- Each wager must total $100 and be made in increments of $50.
- Although each player has $600 (6 wagers X $100 per wager) to wager with, the starting Bankroll for each player is $0.00. The bankroll for any contest is fictitious and is in no way related to the entry fee.
- Each track is running 9 races on this day, so players have 18 races on which to place their 6 wagers.
- Each wager can be any combination of WPS as long as the total is $100. Each of the following would be a valid wager in this contest.
- $100 Win
- $50 Place / $50 Show
- $100 Show
- Proceeds from winning wagers, based on actual track payouts, are added into your bankroll. You do not have to use all 6 wagers. The player with the highest BankRoll at the end of the 18 races, is the contest winner.
