12. Should more than one Stable score the same winning score, the stables will be ordered in the order they were purchased (or in the case of free stables, submitted) and the earliest submission will be awarded the prize. The selections within each stable can be changed freely up until the competition closes for entries at 11am on Tuesday 16 June 2020. For the avoidance of doubt, each stable will be timestamped when it is paid for (or in the case of free stables, initially submitted), and not when any selections are subsequently made or stables otherwise amended.
13. For the purpose of calculating the monthly prizes, every Stable score is set to zero at the start of each month (this will not affect the accrual of Stable points for the purpose of the season long competition).
14. Winners will be contacted directly after the close of the competition to determine payment details.
15. You can monitor your entry online (either at www.tote.co.uk/ten-to-follow or www.tote.co.uk/ten-to-follow/racing-post), where an updated leaderboard will display the highest scores in both the Free-to-Play Competition and the Paid Competition at any given time.
16. You will have the opportunity to make online substitutions during a transfer window, which will open for a period of five days between the Glorious Goodwood meeting and York’s Ebor meeting (dates to be confirmed). A maximum of two (2) substitutions per Stable will be permitted. We reserve the right to modify the list of horses available for selection at any point during the competition.
17. Stables only score points for horses while they are active in their stable. If Horse A is substituted from a stable and replaced with a new Horse B, the stable retains the points already scored by Horse A while Horse A was part of the stable but earns no further points in respect of Horse A following substitution, and Horse B only begins to start scoring points for its new stable once that substitution is complete. The stable does not inherit points already scored by Horse B while it was outside the stable.
18. Underage gambling is a criminal offence and is not tolerated by us. We reserve the right to request age and identity verification documentation from any customer at any time and to render void any bets with persons under the age of 18.
