You're right, you MORE! The tracks I follow the closest are NOT running this time of year. This would be a way for myself to try to improve and learn another track at the same time. Up to two so far. Hopefully others will join in, if not this will work.

This first one is "easy".

Here are the details:
* This contest is for t'bred races only.

* Selections are due by noon as determined by the time stamp of your post for ALL tracks and must be in one post.

* There is no editing of your post, just make a new one with the mistaken one in quotes. That is the lone exception to selections in multiple posts.

* Each participant will select three tracks in order choice.

* Each player will select one horse (and alternate if choice scratches) to finish in the official in the money finish (top three) for races 1 to 4 from their top selected track.

* Scores are determined by adding money earned from a $2 across the board wager for each race.

* The scores are tallied and those in the bottom half are eliminated.

* Scores then are tallied for the remain players second track choice.

* Again, those in the bottom half are done for the day while the remaining players use their third track.

* Scores are tallied and the winner is crowned. If the their is a tie between players, the person with the highest win payoff is the winner (nobody had winner, we use place money and if needed show money). In the event their is still a tie, their are co-winners.

There you have it. Three tracks, races 1 - 4 each with 1 choice (and alternate to be used only if your original choice scratched). Advance by having the upper half for payoffs from the field, repeating the process until all three tracks have been played.

If interested, we could run this Saturday and/or Sunday.
