*NATIONAL TURF HANDICAPPING CHAMPION
The National Turf Handicapping Champion is the player with the highest aggregate three-day bankroll once scores are combined from the three individual contests. Based on 150 entries in all three contests, the National Turf Handicapping Champion will receive a BCBC seat ($10,000 entry). A player MUST compete in all three contests (Thursday, Sunday and Sunday) to be eligible to be named National Turf Champion. If a player does not participate in all three contests and finishes with the highest aggregate bankroll, that player WILL NOT be crowned National Turf Handicapping Champion. If a player has multiple entries, each entry will be marked 1 or 2. In the case of multiple entries in all or any of the three contests – when it comes to the aggregate totals – entry 1 will be added to entry 1 and entry 2 will be added to entry 2.
