Tournament Schedule - Nov 20 - Dec 17

Overview

We’re making the following changes to the weekly tournament schedule:
  • All Weekly Premier tournaments will be split into two
  • Each week will feature Variance Tournaments and Sit & Go Tournaments
  • The Variance Tournaments will use paid races for qualification
  • The Sit & Go Tournaments will use Sit and Go races for qualification
  • The Variance Tournaments will receive 70% of the total weekly prize pool
  • The Sit & Go Tournaments will receive 30% of the total weekly prize pool
Note: The Maiden will remain the same as the previous 4-week schedule.

Week Commencing Nov 20

  • Variance Tournaments will have <100, <250, <500 and unconditional segments
  • The total weekly prize pool will be $50,000 USD

Weeks Commencing Nov 27, Dec 4 and Dec 11

  • The <500 Races Weekly Premier will be removed
  • Variance Tournaments will therefore have <100, <250, and unconditional segments
  • The unconditional tournaments will increase in size to accommodate the change
  • $5,000 per week will be added to the total Maiden prize pool
  • The total weekly prize pools will be $45,000 USD

Why we’re removing the <500 races segment

  • Very low engagement and volume in Class 1
  • In other classes this segment sees a very high proportion of max level horses
  • We’re removing it specifically in week two of the schedule to ensure players have over two weeks’ notice of this change
  • We’ll evaluate the impact of this change throughout the four weeks
  • As mentioned above we’ll be adding $5,000 per week to the Maiden prize pool
