tote dividend points
Tote dividend points will be awarded according to the official totewin and toteplace dividend odds - including a £1 unit stake - as follows:
Win dividend – straight conversion from £’s to points. For example for a £9.40 win dividend the horse is awarded 9.40 points, £15.30 is awarded 15.30 points etc. Horses finishing first will not receive the place dividend.
Horses that finished placed will only receive the toteplace dividend points (unless finishing second in the bonus races detailed above). This will be on the same criteria as above - i.e. £7.20 equates to 7.20 points.
The maximum tote dividend points earned by a horse, in a race is 50 points. So if a horse was returned at a totewin dividend of £67.50, the number of points earned would be 50.
See 'Star Horse' section below for more details on the 50 point cap.
If no totewin/toteplace dividend is declared, the Starting Price will determine any tote dividend points using standard each-way terms. Should neither a totewin dividend nor a Starting Price be returned, Tote dividend points will not apply.
star horse points
Players nominate one horse to be their 'Star Horse' in each entry.
This horse scores double points on the Tote dividend points system, detailed above, for a win or place in any race.
For example a horse wins and returns the following dividend: £6.20.
As the horse is the 'Star Horse' the return will be doubled for a total combined return of 12.40 points.
The maximum combined 'tote dividend + star horse' points is capped at 50 for any one horse in any race. Therefore the maximum total number of points earned by a horse, in a £30,000+ bonus race is 100 points – i.e. 25 prize money points + 25 bonus race points + a maximum of 50 tote dividend + star horse points.
overall prize
Entries to the competition will cost £10 online and £12 (or 14 euros) by post.
All stake monies, will be aggregated and paid out in dividends after a 30% deduction to cover administration costs.
The remaining 70% of all stakes will be paid out as prizes.
An amount of £60,000 will be allocated for monthly prizes with the highest scoring entry in the prize periods below each winning £10,000. In the event of a tie, the prize will be shared.

November 15-30 £10,000
