2. Aim of the Game

The aim of the game is to generate the largest bank by the end of each day and to win the overall prize, the Festival as a whole.
Scores will be determined with the placing of an imaginary £1 stake on each of your selections in the six races per Festival day. There is no outlay from your 'bank' for stakes as each entrant receives a free £1 bet per race. Once the "weighed in" result is called after a race, we will settle all 'bets' on the winning horse based on the Starting Price (SP).
Stakes are not included your the returns and there are no returns for horses who finished placed or are declared as Non Runners subsequent to you making your selections.
For example: If the horse that you selected wins at a returned SP of 3/1, £3 will be added to your Tipster Challenge bank. If your horse fails to win, you will not win or lose anything. If your horse is a non-runner then you won't be able to change your selection.

Prizes (as detailed below) are available to win on each day of the Festival. The winner each day will be the player who generates the largest Tipster Challenge bank balance, similarly the overall prize winner will be determined by the person who generates the largest bank balance throughout the Festival as a whole.
