Re: Tri Distance Championship - Scoring System
NO SPONSORED RACES
NO CLAIMS RACES
NO RACES AT PLAYER OWNED TRACKS
ALL OTHER RACES ARE ELIGIBLE
Points will be tallied in each division and used to score the tri-distance total as follows (simple spreadsheet)
Sprint Points (SP)
Mid Points (MP)
Route Points (RP)
Tri-Distance Total = SP x MP + MP x RP + SP x RP
Examples:
Horse A scores 300 points in Sprints and 0 in the other categories (300 total)
300 x 0 + 0 x 0 + 300 x 0 = 0 for Tri-Distance Championship
Horse B scores 125 points SP, 125 MP, and 0 RP (250 total)
125 x 125 + 125 x 0 + 125 x 0 = 15,625
Horse C scores 75 in each category (225 total)
75 x 75 + 75 x 75 + 75 x 75 = 16,875
In the examples, the horse with the least total racing points but spread over all distances would win the tri-distance championship.

Re: Tri Distance Championship - Breeding Support
Tu stimulate interest in the championship
Look for quick turnaround blue hen lease auctions this week
When nomination time gets here (first year of nomination would be year 59), I will award a $12.5k breeding credit for every paid nomination of a horse by one of my stallions. This is NOT a refund or rebate. It IS a credit toward future breeding to any of my stallions

Re: Tri Distance Championship
Will nominations be a separate post or on this post? I have a freak versatile girl who is perfect! I had the wrong equipment on her first race but I got that fixed and she won her second race .
Re: Tri Distance Championship
Super excited, have a filly who's trying out her 3rd distance next week, think she'll be a mid/route girl cause her sprint race wasn't the greatest
