Entrants cannot make more than one selection in any one race day. Selections are final. Selections must be placed by the contestant only at ShowVivor. The entrant is solely responsible for ensuring that his or her selection is correct. No changes will be made once wagering is closed.
In the event that the entrant did not make any selections or missed the deadline to make selections, the entrant is then disqualified from the contest. Santa Anita Park is not liable for any events which may cause the entrant to miss contest deadlines.
In the event that multiple contestants are still alive on Saturday, April 21, then beginning with that date a tie-breaker will be put in place and will be in effect until the contest ends or the meet ends on Saturday, April 22. The tie breaker will be the highest show price payoff prior to April 14. The second tie-breaker will be the highest show price payoff after April 14. If a single Showvivor player wins the contest before April 22, then the tie-breaker condition will not be in effect. This condition will only take place should there be more than 1 contestant still alive after the races on April 22 or if the final contestants are eliminated on the same day.
