60-Second Wagering Spree April 2024
Saturday, April 27, 2024
Register for participation beginning at 5:00pm (for 6:05pm post time dates) Entries accepted until drawings conclude
Guests 18 years and older that are members of the Vernon Rewards Club will be permitted to participate once per promotional day, free of charge. Members must check in at the promotions desk (at the track) to be entered into the drawing. Upon checking in, an entry ticket will be printed from CMP (players tracking system). The ticket stub with the guest’s name and account number will be placed into a drawing drum for that day’s drawings and the guest will receive the other end of the ticket as verification it was printed and entered into the drawing.
On each promotional day, there will be two winners chosen at the conclusion of Race 2 and Race 5 for a total of four winners per day.
Winners will be drawn out of a drawing drum immediately at the conclusion of the two selected races. Once announced the winners for that particular drawing time will be given five (5) minutes to report to the promotions desk where they will be verified upon providing valid identification. Once the two winners are verified, one at a time, in the order they were announced and verified, they will participate in the 70-Second Wagering Spree.
The wagering spree for each winner will be completed at a live teller with a member of Vernon Downs promotional staff keeping the time. The wagers will be placed for either Race 4 (for winners drawn after Race 2) or Race 7 (for winners drawn after Race 5). Once the timekeeper tells the winner to begin wagering, the winner will call out individual wagers, as many as they can in seventy (70) seconds. “Boxing,” “wheeling,” or “keying” will not be permitted. Wagers must be called out exactly as follows: TWO DOLLAR EXACTA 1-2, TWO DOLLAR EXACTA 1-3, TWO DOLLAR EXACTA 4-5, etc.
Once the seventy seconds has expired, the total amount of all wagers placed will be documented and that will be the prize amount the winner has won for the drawing. All wagers/tickets will then be given to the winner and any prizes won from them are theirs to keep.
Once the two names for the drawing time have been announced, all winners will have five (5) minutes to report to the promotions desk to be verified. Valid ID is required. If any winner fails to report within the 5-minute timeframe or they cannot or refuse to provide valid identification, they will forfeit their opportunity to participate, and another winner will not be chosen in their place.
Guests may only win once each promotion day and once drawn, whether available to participate or not, will not be placed back into the drawing drum for any subsequent drawings that day.
