Contest rules:
Contest wagers are placed using real money and must be designated as
contest wagers by checking the "Enter this wager in a contest" box
on the Wager Pad in order to be officially counted in the contest.
Only online wagers will count in the contest; telephone wagers are
not eligible.
Contest play:
Contestants must place a Win wager for at least $10 ("Contest
Wager") on at least six (6) different races from Cal Expo during the
contest period. Contestants may place as many contest wagers as they
choose; for any amount they choose ($10 or more), and all wagers
will count in the contest.
Wagers on horses that are scratched will not count toward meeting
the six race minimum requirement. Be sure to check for late
scratches.
Wagers placed for a base value of less than $10 are not eligible for
contest play.
Contestants may place a contest wager on more than one horse or
entry per race and all wagers will count toward that contestant's
final ROI. Contestants may place more than one contest wager on the
same horse or entry and all such wagers will count toward that
contestant's final ROI.
Scoring:
ROI is calculated by summing winning wagers and subtracting from
that sum, the amount wagered (minus refunds), and then dividing that
total by the amount wagered; expressing the total as a percentage.
Each qualifying contest is a separate contest in which an Official
Winner will be determined.
Tiebreaker rules:
- In the event of a tie between any of the top five finishers, the
contestant who selects the most winning horses shall be awarded the
higher prize.
-
If a tie still remains, the contestant who selects the horse with
the highest pari-mutuel win price shall be awarded the higher prize.
If a tie still remains, the total prize money allocated to the
tied contestants shall be divided equally between the tied
contestants, with the exception of the First Prize.
-
If a tie for the First Prize remains unbroken after the first two
tiebreakers, Youbet.com will conduct a separate contest, of its
choosing, between the tied contestants to determine a single First
Prize winner.
-
There can only be one (1) First Prize winner per contest. In the
event a single member wins more than one contest, he or she shall be
awarded second prize in the second or third contest that he or she
is victorious. In such cases, the official second place finisher
shall be awarded First Prize.
