💰 How the Diamond Classic Sidepot Payout Works
At the Diamond Classic, we offer a sidepot for nominated horses—a special payout opportunity on top of your regular race winnings.
🐴 Who’s Eligible?
- Only horses nominated to the Diamond Classic and entered in the sidepot are eligible.
- You can run on any day of the race—all times are combined.
🏆 How Winners Are Decided
- All eligible sidepot entries from the entire event are combined into one payout (not daily).
- Your time is ranked against all other nominated sidepot entries.
- We use a D-format payout (usually 4D or 5D) to reward multiple divisions:
Example:
- 1D = Fastest overall time
- 2D = Fastest time + 0.5 seconds
- 3D = Fastest time + 1.0 second
- 4D = Fastest time + 1.5 seconds
💵 How the Money is Paid
- All sidepot entry fees go into one large payout pool.
- Payouts follow a standard scale and are divided across each division.
- Winners are paid via Checkflo, either by mail or direct deposit.
