Competition rules

1. Codes and tickets

Every code is personal and belongs to one event. It allows a set number of tickets (entries). The first person to use a code owns it; nobody else can use it afterwards. A code stops working when entries close for its event.

2. Making picks

Each event covers a range of races (for example races 2 to 8). For every race in that range, each ticket picks one horse by typing its race-card number. You can change your picks as often as you like until entries close.

3. Entry closing time

Entries close 10 minutes before the first competition race (Dubai time). After that, picks are locked and cannot be changed. Only submitted tickets take part — a ticket left as a draft is not scored.

4. Scoring

Each ticket is scored on its own. A ticket earns 1 point for every race where its horse wins. A ticket's total is the sum across all competition races. Scores count only official, confirmed results.

• Non-runners: if your horse is withdrawn or does not run, that pick scores 0.
• Dead heats: if two horses dead-heat for first, a pick on either horse earns the point.
• Result corrections: if an official result is corrected, scores update automatically.

5. Prize pool

The prize pool is AED 9 for every submitted ticket in the event. The highest-scoring ticket wins the whole pool. If several tickets tie for the highest score, the pool is shared equally between those tickets. A person holding more than one winning ticket receives one share per winning ticket.

6. Eligibility

Everyone who takes part with a valid code is eligible. The organiser may declare a participant ineligible — for example for misuse of codes, multiple identities or breaking these rules — in which case their tickets are not considered for the prize.

7. Leaderboard and privacy

The public leaderboard shows tickets by an anonymous ticket number only. Other tickets' picks become visible once entries close. Names, phone numbers, emails and codes are never published.

8. Winners

Winners are contacted using the mobile number or email on their account. Please make sure your contact details are correct.

9. Decisions

The organiser's decision on results, eligibility and prizes is final. These rules may be updated; the version on this page applies.
