CONTEST FAQs

Q: If I bet $10 across-the-board (Win/Place/Show), will the $10 wagered to Show count in the contest?
A: No. Combination Win/Place/Show, Win/Show and Place/Show wagers are not eligible for contest play.

Q: Can I use more than one horse or betting interest in my $10 Show wager?
A: No. If more than one betting interest is used in a $10 Show wager, making the total bet amount greater than $10, the wager will not count in the contest.

Q: What happens if my horse is scratched?
A: If your horse is scratched, you may place a $10 Show wager on another horse in the same race and it will count in the contest. Any wager placed on a scratched horse must be re-bet in order to count in the contest. There are no favorite replacements for scratched horses and any wager on a scratched horse that is not re-bet will count as a losing wager.

Q: What happens if I skip a race?
A: Players cannot skip races. In order to win a prize, players must cash a winning $10 Show wager on every race in which Show wagering is available at the contest track of the day. If a player skips a race in which Show wagering is offered, it will count as a losing wager.

Q: What happens if Show wagering is cancelled or is not offered on a race?
A: If Show wagering is cancelled or is otherwise not available on any contest race, players may skip that race without penalty.
