The free handicapping contest is open to all patrons on Saturday and there is no fee to enter.
Fans may register up until 7:15 p.m. on the night of the contest. The contest format requires players to make a mythical $2 "across the board" wager on one horse in races 2 – 10 at the Meadowlands.
The winner is determined by the player that amasses the largest mythical bankroll from their
selections.
The World Harness Handicapping Championship
presented by DerbyWars.com is a one-day tournament on Saturday, April 6th,
with a welcome reception the evening prior. Players that did not earn a
seat through a qualifying event can directly buy-in for $1,300. The
$1,300 entry fee includes a $300 bankroll, with the remaining $1,000 going to
the prize pool. The $150,000 prize pool is based on an estimated 150
entries. The WHHC contest format requires players
to bet 10 races: their choice of seven Meadowlands races, plus three designated
mandatory races. Players keep all pari-mutuel winnings. Prize
payouts are to the Top 10.
