RULES: HORSE RACING

Racing is the 3 legs of the Triple Crown: The Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes.

Q1: Kentucky Derby
The women wear fancy hats and the drink of choice is a $17 mint julep that makes your SEC stadium bud light look like a good deal. 20 horses are available and seeded. Choose 5 horses which add up to no more than 23 seed points. For example, you could choose horses with seed values of 8-8-5-1-1 (23 pts) but not horses with seed values of 8-7-5-2-2 (24 pts). You are responsible for knowing which horses are scratched from the race. Seeds are based roughly off the initial odds posted here

Picks will stay open until just before post time; 5/5 3:25p Pacific. Any attempts to enter picks after this deadline will result in a severe decathlon penalty.

Points:
1st place... 100 points
2nd place... 80 points
3rd place... 65 points
4th place... 50 points
5th place... 40 points
6th place... 25 points
7th thru 10th place... 10 points
11th place or worse... 0 points

Q2: Preakness
Nobody really knows where Pimlico is, altho it sounds like maybe there's a wormhole in Maryland just off Hwy83 that dumps you into New Jersey.

Choose 3 horses which add up to 9 or fewer seed points. There are just 8 horses are racing, so you get a little more a third of the field. Note that all finishers will earn points. You are responsible for knowing which horses are scratched from the race. Seeds are loosely based off odds posted here

Points:
1st place... 100 points
2nd place... 75 points
3rd place... 50 points
4th place... 35 points
5th place... 25 points
6th place... 15 points
7th place... 10 points
8th place... 5 points

Picks will stay open until just before post time; 5/19 320p Pacific. Any attempts to enter picks after this deadline will result in a severe decathlon penalty.

Q3: Belmont Stakes
The third leg of the triple crown. Picks will open once the posts are drawn and the morning line is set.

Choose 3 horses which add up to 14 or fewer seed points. There are just 10 horses are racing, so you get nearly a third of the field. Note that only the top 7 finishers will earn points. You are responsible for knowing which horses are scratched from the race. Seeds are based off the initial odds posted here

Points:
1st place... 100 points
2nd place... 75 points
3rd place... 55 points
4th place... 45 points
5th place... 35 points
6th place... 20 points
7th place... 10 points
8th or worse... 0 points

Picks lock shortly before the race starts - 6/9 at 3:30pm Pacific
