What do you think of this contest?

[MrLucky]

I wanting wanting to run some other contests as well during the 10 week contest. Is this a good idea or just 1 at a time? I love contests and I'm sure other's do as well. What ideas if any do you have so we can make this residency SUPER EXCITING??? Thanks

Maybe Ill learn enough in the 10 weeks to win something. lol

I think running other contests is a good idea. I think it's probably best if they are quick - only a few races in a short period of time. Otherwise, people tend to lose interest quick if they aren't winning.

There are a variety of fairly quick contests - bargain bred contests, for example, are pretty easy.

You could also have a "top speed figure" claiming contest - the person who claims a horse who runs the top speed figure in the race it is claimed from wins a prize. I haven't ever seen anyone try this, actually, but it might be interesting

I'll see if I can come up with anything else.

How about this contest? You have say 4 weeks to pick up a horse in the auction for $1.00 and whoever has the best speed figure in their first race wins? You have 4 weeks to race the horse as well and I'll keep track of the speed figure. Just a thought, please let me know what you think.

Here's one to keep with the North American theme--stable has to have one winner from a track in Canada, one winner from a track in the US and one winner from the track in Mexico to grab the prize thus proving to have a global North American stable

Or you could pick a certain five or six tracks and give everyone a month to get a winner at all of those tracks. Kind of like 3 man, only with tracks.
