Hollywoodbets Punters Challenge Guide

Starting from Wednesday, 01 March 2023, the Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge, South Africa’s most popular horseracing competition, has undergone an exciting revamp and is now accessible to all local race meetings, as well as those in Hong Kong and Singapore. The challenge is free to enter and has produced numerous winners over the past three years, with the top 20 players on the leaderboard sharing the daily prize, which must be won.

To win the ultimate dream payday, players must use their racing knowledge and skills to select all the winners on a card. ‘Blaikes,’ a lifetime racing man, recently became the fourth Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge millionaire, after selecting a 100% clean sheet at the Hollywoodbets Scottsville race meeting on Wednesday, 15 February 2023.

The all-or-nothing prize is now offered to the player, or players, who correctly pick all the winners on any race day, including all local race meetings, as well as Hong Kong and Singapore. The value of the all-or-nothing prize will be determined by the number of runners at the race meeting multiplied by R10 000 for all venues, with the daily prize money of R5 000 for each scheduled race meeting shared by the top 20 players on the points leaderboard at the end of the day.

To encourage players, Hollywoodbets has doubled the all-or-nothing prize and the daily must-be-won prize for those players who have placed a bet of R50 or more on the Punters’ Challenge Bet Slip before the running of the first race. The Bet Slip is programmatically generated, and players can indicate the amount they wish to wager.

To play, all that is required is a Hollywoodbets account, and players can either select one horse in each race at the designated race meeting or use the ‘quick-pick’ option. Points are awarded based on the finishing position of the selection in the race and the number of actual runners. The winner of a race in a ten-horse field will receive ten (10) points, while the last horse will receive one (1) point. Points are also awarded according to the price of the winner only.

Players must submit their entries at least five minutes before the start of the first race. If using the Bet Slip to enhance their payout potential, it is recommended to allow ample time. Join in the fun and excitement of the Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge by visiting their website.
