Guest 2Admin2

Starts 30 August - runs through to after NZ cup carnival.

 

Prizemoney $1,000,$700 split between 1st,2nd,3rd at the end of the comp, and $300 split into 6x$50 bi weekly prizes for the biggest movers for that period.

 

Three races selected per week. The best races IN NEW ZEALAND and AUSTRALIA that Saturday,chosen by either Scooby or Admin,these may not be the highest quality races on that day, all races run that day are open for us to chose. Entries close at 11am on raceday,if your horse is scratched after this time, you go onto to NZTAB fav in the race.

 

Points for the first three home in a race; 175, 100, 60. In the case of a deadheat points will be halved.

 

Also an imaginary $20 each way. So if you pick a winner that pays $8.50 and $3.00 your return is 175 + 230 totals 405 points. Pick a winner that pays $2.10 and $1.20 your return is 175 + 66 = 241. Pick a horse that runs second and pays $1.90 your return is then 100 + 38 = 138. You are very much rewarded for picking WINNERS, and if you pick high-priced winners you are extremely well rewarded!

 

 

Overall winner prizes to highest point scorers at end of comp.

 

 

First prize $700 2nd prize $200 3rd prize $100

All prizes paid out at the end of Comp.

Tailenders will be culled from time to time as the comp progresses.

 

3 Entries max per member... must be under sign in name 1, 2, 3... for transparency .

 

Entries not accepted after week 2 as this is the cut off date for payment, if not paid up by then, then a non starter.

 

Entries close 11am On raceday NZ Time.

 

Racecafe owner and Admins decisions will be final, in the unlikely result of a draw, there will be one race the next weekend to decide the winner between the dead heaters only.

"You do not require a licence if total value of prizes is $5,000 or less, and turnover of the gambling is $25,000 or less (these may be run as either Class 1 Gambling or Class 2 Gambling)."
 

Not sure if there's something that overrules that though.

Please check it out if this is the case we can go ahead... but I want to be 100% correct...as you can understand why...

Ok guys please check the amendments to the rules, if everyone is happy we will do it this way for this comp and reassess it after that.

Let me know if everyone is on board, if we do not get a significant amount of replies then we won't run it... cheers.

Sounds good mate, I'm a starter. Just wondering why you edited out the $20 entry fee? Sounds fair to me!

I'll be in too, and agree with Reilly that $20 is fair, saves you from bearing the brunt of all the costs.

 

Also do you have scoring sorted? Happy to help out with that on a couple of weekends if need be.

Be happy for you to help there too..thanks

Leigh - do you think 10pm the night before is a bit harsh?  From my perspective in terms of admin it doesn't make any difference if the close off is as late as midday Saturday.  However it is sometimes difficult to close the thread off on a good Friday night.

 

Personally I find it easier and more relaxing to cruise through the fields, scratchings, track conditions and listen to Stu "the Holy" McGrail and Karen on race morning (that last bit was a P take).  I'm sure others would feel the same.

2A2 / Scooby - Mrs v S wants to play too.

Can she enter as Mrs V S or does she have to be VS2 ? .. or do I just tell her to get back in the kitchen and cook my dinner!!!  :ph34r:

 

Why send her to the kitchen when she wants to play?
