ME Harness.com rules for point standings: |
| Point standings posted on
ME Harness.com are unofficial standings. Official standing are complied by
the Maine State Harness Racing Commission. We base our points on results posted to the U.S.T.A. If an appeal of the official results is submitted, point standings are not altered until the M.S.H.R.C. makes a ruling. In some instances, the U.S.T.A. results were not complete. In those cases, we used standings in the yearbooks. During the season, points are listed by point totals in ascending order. If there is a tie, purse earning will split the tie. Final standings are listed by finishing position from the Final in ascending order, then by point totals in ascending order. Point totals do not include the Championship Race Driver, Trainer, and Sire Standings are listed by wins in ascending order, If there is a tie, UDRS will split the tie. If still tied, then we go to earnings.
