Transactions – Race Finish Calculations

 

Short Field Extra money To Winner:  With this checked, if there are fewer horses running than the number of places paid by the track, the missing place horses’ earnings will be given to the horse that finishes 1st.  Example:  If the track pays 5 places, and there are only 3 horses in the race, both 4th and 5th place purse money would go to the first place finisher.

Use Number of Runners for Splits:  How this question is answered, affects what kind of Purse Split table will be used.  If ‘no’ is answered, the Purse Split table will be setup to pay back a set number of places, regardless of the number of horses in each race.  If the question is answered ‘yes’, a separate Purse Split table will be created for every number of horses that can run in your races.  This type of purse split is typically used when the tracks pays 1% all the way back.

Show [Lasix Fee, Health Fee, Pony Fee] Check Box on Race Finish Detail:  When these boxes are checked, the appropriate check box will appear on the bottom right-hand side of the Race Finish screen.  If the track charges fees for any of these items, the system will automatically deduct the fees from the horseman at the time of Race Finish.  (See documentation on Race Finish for more details).

Canadian Fund, Lasix Vet Account, California Bred Indicator:  The ‘Indicator’ check boxes when answered yes, will display additional fields on the Race Finish screen. 

Separate Split Tables for Plus/Included:  Checking this box causes the Race Finish process to use a separate Purse Split table for Plus and Included Enhancement monies.

Separate Accounts SF Plus/Included:  Checking this box will instruct the Race Finish process to use a different control account for Plus and Included Enhancement monies.
