Entrants make multiple selections in each of 14 Breeders’ Cup races on Oct. 30 and 31 and earn points for parimutuel payouts based on mythical $20 across-the-board wagers with payout caps of $30 win, $15 place and $10 show. Bonus points are also awarded based on outcomes. Entry deadline is post time of first Breeders’ Cup race on Friday, Oct. 30. Entry begins Thursday, Oct. 29. Download entry form here to prepare in advance or pick on up at Club Level Info Center.

Awarding Points: In each of the 14 contest races, entrants will make three selections and will receive the sum of points earned by each selection as detailed below. Entrant can use the same horse up to three times in each race. For example, in a given race entrant could select #1 three times and would earn three times any points earned by #1 in that race.

Points will be awarded based on the official outcome of each contest race. Players will be awarded the amount of points that equals the total dollar amount of the official mutuel return on their selections based on a mythical $20 across-the-board wager. For example: If a player’s selection finishes first and the official mutuel results are as follows: $6.00 to win; $4.00 to place; $2.40 to show, the player will receive 124 points. If a player’s selection finishes second and returns $15.00 to place; and $8.80 to show, the player would receive 238 points.

The maximum point payoffs per race per selection for win, place, and show will be capped in the following manner. The maximum points possible for each individual selection: win – 300 points, place – 150 points; and show – 100 points. If the same horse is selected twice or three times, entrant receives points accordingly.

BONUS POINTS: 200 bonus points awarded if in a single race if all three selections finish in official top three. Entrants using the same horse more than once in the same race forfeit the opportunity to earn this bonus. 200 bonus points awarded when entrant has winning horse in three consecutive races. For example, if in races 7, 8 and 9 entrant has the winner as one of his three selections in each race, 200 points will be awarded. This bonus is awarded once per incidence, crosses over from Friday to Saturday, and is not based on the number of times any individual horse is selected.

Prize Structure: Best score on Oct. 30 receives 10% of total prize pool. Best score on Oct. 31 receives 10% of prize pool. Best total score of both days combined, Oct. 30 and 31, receives 70% of prize pool. Second best score receives 10%.

Entry: Official entry forms will be available at the third level Information Center. Entrants must complete the entry form and submit it along with the $20 fee prior to the entry deadline. One entry per player is allowed.
