Special Dubai / Sand Castle Contest This Saturday!

or whatever you call yourself. After a brief break last week the weekly handicapping competition is back and better than ever with increased races & prizes for this special Dubai World Cup weekend.

 

If you haven’t heard about the contest yet than you must not be visiting the Derbyfever.com forums. The contest is free to enter. That’s right FREE and the weekly prizes are 500 credits for 1st place and 250 credits for 2nd place. But during this special weekend the prizes are increased to 2500 credits for 1st, 1500 credits for 2nd and 500 credits 3rd. And not only are there weekly prizes but standings are kept for yearly prizes as well.

 

Think you aren’t a good enough handicapper or it’s too late to join? That’s silly. The first 9 weeks saw eight different winners with the first repeat winner happening two weeks ago. And with the increased amount of races and large fields, longshots are bound to surprise this weekend!

 

So what do you need to do? Go to forums under Derbyfever.com – The Game and look for the thread entitled Week 5002 – Contest Selections. (Don’t go now though as it’s not up yet. Once Derbyfever.com entries are out the thread will be posted sometime Wednesday night.) I’m estimating that 10 races will be selected in total using the last 5 races from the Dubai World Cup Day; Al Quoz Sprint, Dubai Golden Shaheen, Dubai Duty Free, Dubai Sheema Classic and the Dubai World Cup along with the respective Derbyfever races. (Turf Classic and Turf Sprint are light on entries as of Monday night so I reserve the right to swap out to more competitive sim races if the other races have better fields.)

 

All you need to do is post who you think will win in the order I list the races. Your entry will need to be made an hour before the regular Derbyfever post time as that is when the Al Quoz sprint is scheduled to be run. Your selection will receive a mythical $2 WPS wager and the highest total at the end of the day wins. It’s that simple!

This is a chance for the writing impaired to earn a shot at weekly credits though my selections haven’t been too hot and I’m still waiting to cash in.

 

Good Luck to everyone that participates and I hope to see some new entries!
