Your best 5 races (from 12) count, and must include at least one long, one medium and one short. There are three trophies - overall best man, best lady and the best on handicap.
If you went at 68.3% of the winner's speed you score 68 points. Handicap scores are calculated to create a level competition despite differences of age and gender:
Women get a 13% allowance.
All runners between 40 and 60 get a 1% per year allowance to allow for age: eg a 40 yr old's scratch score is multiplied by 1.01, a 48 year old's scratch score is multiplied by 1.09.
In your 60s a 2% per year allowance is made.
in your early 70s 3% per year, late 70s 4% per year etc to reflect the fact that age-decline accelerates.
