4. What is the cut off time for making selections for each contest?
Selections for all races must be submitted and are final by 2:00 P.M. EST each contest date. Final entries cannot be changed for any reason. Take your time when entering your selections. The selections page will not be accessible after 2:00 P.M. EST on the contest date.

5. Do I need to purchase anything to play the Challenge?
The Challenge is absolutely free. Two nights prior, all contestants can view the entries for free for the upcoming contest. To assist you we will be offering special Challenge handicapping products. We hope you enjoy the contest and take advantage of the many benefits of Brisnet membership.

6. Why do you need my charge card number if the Challenge is free?
Only Brisnet members are eligible to compete in the Challenge and Brisnet membership requires a credit card. When you become a Brisnet member you are eligible to download any of our many handicapping and pedigree products. Brisnet members have an open line of credit and the credit card provides a way to bill members for any purchases. No purchase is required and you can cancel your membership at the conclusion of the Challenge. Of course, we feel there are many reasons to continue your membership such as online handicapping contests, access to our monthly Internet specials and the best handicapping products in the industry.

7. Why do you need my social security number (last 4 digits) or security code to enter?
We understand your concern. Our use of the social security number is strictly to verify the uniqueness of each contestant. This added level of security prevents contestants from trying to enter multiple times. We hope you choose to join us.

8. Can I participate if I live outside the USA?
Yes.

9. Can I play more than one entry in the Challenge?
Each player is limited to one entry per person. Multiple entries are cause for disqualification of all involved entries.

10. Can I call or fax in my selections for the contest?
This is an Internet-based contest. Entries will only be accepted through the online entry and selection form. No faxed, mailed, electronically mailed or phoned in entries are allowed.

11. What happens if my selection scratches from a contest race?
In the event that a selected horse is scratched or declared a non-starter, the alternate selection will be used. If no alternate selection is chosen or if that runner is also scratched, the post time favorite will be substituted.

12. What happens if my selection is part of a coupled entry?
Players will select horses by name, irrespective of their program number or coupled entry status. If a selected horse is coupled, points are only awarded for the horse selected, not for any other horse(s) he/she may be coupled with.

13. What are the tiebreakers in the case of a tie for the most winners?
In the event that there is a tie between two or more players for the highest bankroll total at the end of the contest, the following procedure will be used to break the tie. The first tie breaker is the most winners selected. In the event two or more players are still tied, the most place horses selected will be used to break the tie. If a tie still exists, the highest win payoff will be used until the tie is broken. In the event a tie is not broken, players will either share the prize equally or participate in a "playoff" the following Saturday. Bloodstock Research Information Services (BRIS) will make the final decision.

15. If I am out of town can I make my selections from another computer?
As long as you have your Brisnet username and password, you can make your selections from any computer that has Internet access.
