All eliminations will race for a minimum of $25,000.

If there are eliminations, post positions in the final will be determined by an open draw with the exception that elimination winners, in an order determined by lot, will draw for post positions number one (#1) through six (#6) in the final. All other finalists will be placed in an open draw for the remaining post positions. Any horse(s) that receive a bye into the final will be in the open draw for post positions in the final. The two Win and You’re In horses (Champagne Problems and Maryland) for the freshman Trot divisions skip the eliminations and draw for posts 1-6 in the final. The winner receives 50% of the purse but all horses that start in the final receive money.
