Draws for nine conditioned series are scheduled for as early as Tuesday morning (Dec. 19) at MGM Northfield Park.
The nine events, which are all free to enter, are based upon horses’ average earnings per start in 2023 (through Dec. 15); horses must have at least six starts in 2023.
Filly and mare pacers will compete in three separate series: non-winners of $750 per start, non-winners of $1,250 per start and non-winners of $2,000 per start in 2023. All of the filly and mare series will kick off on Saturday night, Dec. 23, with a draw Tuesday morning, Dec. 19.
The same three conditions will be written throughout the week for horse and gelding pacers.
Trotters of both sexes will compete in the same three series, but trotting mares are allowed an extra 20 per cent on 2023 average per start earnings in those events.
All nine series will consist of three legs, plus a higher-pursed final and at least one consolation in each event.
Horses do not have to compete in all legs (including the opening leg) to race in the final or consolation.
