As of Saturday, February 2, Track Price Plus' bettors will be able to select their winning tipster of the month by writing the name of their choice on the reverse of losing Track Price Plus vouchers of $500 upwards. Bettors are required to also write their names, addresses and telephone numbers on the reverse of these losing vouchers and deposit them in boxes provided at all Track Price Plus branches. A grand draw will be conducted at the end of each month. The first correct losing voucher drawn with the name of the month's winning tipster will earn a $3,000 gift voucher from Track Price Plus Limited. The second correct losing voucher drawn with the name of the month's winning tipster will earn a $1,500 gift voucher from Track Price Plus Limited. Vouchers can be used to purchase bets at any Track Price Plus branch islandwide. Track Price Plus bettors can enter as many $500 losing vouchers as they desire in this promotion which will run up to the last raceday in each month. Adding to the excitement, each tipster will be allocated odds based on form and progress after each raceday. These odds will appear for each raceday, along with tipsters' pictures, on Track Price Plus' page in the Track and Pools form book. This page, showing tipsters' pictures and odds, along with the twists and turns of the competition, will be displayed in all Track Price Plus branches. The winning bettor and runner-up will be presented with their Track Price Plus gift vouchers by the month's winning tipster and their picture published in the Track and Pools form book and displayed at all Track Price Plus branches islandwide. To heat up competition, Track Price Plus Limited will reward the month's winning tipster with $3,000 in addition to the existing $7,000 monthly incentive, making the monthly winnings $10,000 in addition to other incentives such as the $8,000 bi-monthly long shot prize. Other prizes for Track Price Plus Pick-6 tipsters include the possibility of winning the complimentary $100 Track Price Plus Pick-6 Accumulator bet staked on their six nap selections each raceday. The overall yearly winner of the STAR Track Price Plus pick-6 tipsters competition picks up $90,000, first runner-up $30,000 and second runner-up $20,000, making it the richest ever tipsters competition in Jamaica. Ian 'Indian Flame' Johnson, last year's overall winner, was elated to hear of the promotion. "I think it is a good promotion, especially getting the public involved. Everybody has their favourite tipster and will be following them each month," he said. |
