2024 Meadowlands Summer Survival Challenge

Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment’s 2024 Summer Survival Challenge (THE CHALLENGE) runs May 3 through August 3, 2024.

The CHALLENGE is a FREE on-line contest. Participants are required to sign up via an email address, logon to THE CHALLENGE and select one and one entry only in each of the three game races selected by the game Commissioner. Past performances for each challenge race are available on the game page courtesy of Trackmaster.com.

Participants are credited with a "mythical" $2.00 win (1st), place (2nd), and show (3rd) or "across the board" wager on each of their selections in the three designated races each night. The total mutuel payouts according to The Meadowlands official race results will be accrued to the participant's "mythical" bankroll.

EXAMPLE: if your selection in CHALLENGE RACE 1 finishes 2nd , paying $5.60 to place and $3.10 to show , your selection in CHALLENGE RACE 2 does not finish first, second, or third (off the board), your selection in CHALLENGE RACE 3 finishes 3rd and pays $3.20 to show, your virtual bankroll will be credited or increased by $11.90 ($5.60   $3.10   $3.20).

Participants survive THE CHALLENGE until such day that none of their race selections finishes in the money. Participants do not have to make a selection in all three races. In the event of a late scratch of a participant's selection, participant's selection is automatically transferred to the post-time (off-time) favorite. If participant selects a "coupled" entry, and one (or in the case of a three-horse entry, two) horse(s) is (are) scratched, participant's choice is the remaining horse(s) in the originally selected entry. If all parts of a selected entry are scratched, the player receives the post-time favorite. If the post-time favorite is a "coupled" entry, the player receives the entire entry and will be credited with the mutuel payout accordingly.

Participants begin the game with ONE LUCKY HORSESHOE. The lucky horseshoe is a free pass day that allows players to survive if they do not enter selections for a race day or all three of their selections fail to finish in the money. The "lucky horseshoe" is automatically assessed when players do not enter selections or all three of their selections fail to finish in the money on a particular racing day. Participants having used their "lucky horseshoe" will be eliminated when no selection in any race is recorded or the chosen selections fail to increase their bankroll on a particular racing day. Players who do not "survive" THE CHALLENGE and have been eliminated may still be eligible for prizes at the end of THE CHALLENGE based on their "virtual" bankroll at the time of their elimination. Check www.meadowlandsracetrack.com/survival for complete updated standings. Eliminated participants will be notified by email.

THE CHALLENGE begins Friday, May 3, 2024 and concludes when the last Meadowlands live race is official on Saturday, August 3, 2024. THE CHALLENGE scoring is based on pari-mutuel information as supplied by the USTA. Your race selections must be made no less than thirty (30) minutes prior to the start of the first race – first race post time is 6:20 pm; special 12noon post time on Hambletonian Day, Saturday, August 3. REMEMBER, YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR SELECTIONS AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THIRTY (30) MINUTES TO FIRST POST.

In the event of a tie for the highest accumulated pari-mutuel total (bankroll), the player selecting the most first place finishers will be declared the winner. If there is a tie for highest accumulated bankroll and more winners, a random drawing will be held.

In the event of a tie in the most WINNERS category, the player with the highest accumulated pari-mutuel total will be declared the winner. In the unlikely event of a tie in the most WINNERS category also achieving a tie in the highest accumulated pari-mutuel total, a random drawing will be held to determine the winner.

Players may access a daily leader board listing each participant's current standings and race selections after close of entries. Winners will be notified by email.

GOOD LUCK AND THANKS FOR PLAYING OUR GAME!
