The Breeders' Cup Pool is a pool based on the Breeders' Cup World Thoroughbred Championships. The winner of the pool will be determined by totalling the payoff of an imaginary $2 Win, $2 Place, and $2 Show ticket placed on the SINGLE horse selected in each Breeders' Cup race. (If your selected horse wins the race, you will be credited with three winning bets, for win, place and show; if your horse runs 2nd, you will be credited with a winning $2 place and show bet, etc.) You must select a single horse BY NAME, not number, in each of the fourteen BC races. If your selected horse in a race does not run (for any reason), you will be given the posttime favorite in the race instead. If your named horse runs as part of a betting entry , you will receive those other horses as part of your imaginary ticket. The entry that has the greatest betting return from the fourteen selected horses will be the pool winner. Each entry will cost $50. The maximum number of entries for a player is FIVE. The pool will be winner-take-all if there are fewer than 35 entries. If there are more entries, it will be split approximately 70%/30% , after rounding to keep payoffs in $50 increments. You make your entries by sending an email to Bill Hand at abhand@earthlink.net by the deadline above. Do not mail money in advance of the races....you will be given mailing instructions to send your payment to the winner one or two days after the Breeders' Cup races are concluded. SPECIFIC INFO FOR CURRENT BREEDERS’ CUP (2023): Note that Breeders' Cup entries will not be finalized until the middle of the week before the race. You should probably wait until Wednesday or Thursday when the fields have firmed up to submit your entries.
