Each entrant will be given a horse in each of the 10 races for Melbourne Cup Day.

The horses will be matched to an entrant by a random number generator (provided by random.org).

Entrants will be given points if there horse comes 1st (3 points), 2nd (2 points) or 3rd (1 point). Since the Melbourne Cup holds special significance, there will be additional places (1st - 6th) and points (6-1).

The entrant with the most points at the end of race day wins the overall prize*. Plus the Melbourne Cup winner(s) also gets a prize*.

*Prize = Pride and bragging rights. That's all.

I've already lost one Melbourne Cup bet, so the free one is probably the only one I have a chance in! Best of luck....
