$100,000 Article Bonus
I love reading articles on big races, especially in divisions I don’t have time to follow. So, for the rest of the season I’m offering a $100,000 bonus to the SIM journos out there.
The bonus applies to G1 races with purses over 500k for Thoroughbreds or 200k for Mixers
Want to earn the cash? The only condition on articles is that they MUST contain some original analysis. I don’t mind articles that are prose versions of the past performance page normally, but 100k extra cash should be well earned see Tamara Vess’ excellent Statistical Analysis articles, or Douglas Marley’s preview/wrap up articles for great examples.
To claim your 100k, post a link to your article in this thread.
I will then send the cash via PM, so technically it’s $99,999 bonus but I’m sure you can all deal with the $1 loss
At the end of the season, I will put all the articles up for a Best Article vote and the winning article’s author will receive 20,000 game points!
Happy writing

If I'm ever able to string together, a hundred or so one liners, I'll enter the contest?
