The projected score is a feature that provides players with an estimate of their potential point total in a Showdown. Here's what you need to know:

• Calculation: It's based on the current accumulation of estimated fixed odds for your selections.
  
  
• Purpose: This score serves as a guide to help players understand what they might potentially score in points.
  
  
• Real-time updates: The projected score may change as odds fluctuate and races are completed.
  
  
• Not a guarantee: It's important to understand that the projected score is an estimate only and does not guarantee any specific point total.
  
  
• Decision aid: Players can use this information to help inform their strategy and decision-making during the Showdown.
  
  

Remember, actual points are awarded based on the official results and Best Tote odds, which may differ from the projected score.
