For the purpose of determining metropolitan wins, a win in a flat race, the prize for which is worth $11,500 or less to the winner, run at a metropolitan meeting in Australia, shall be deemed to be a win in a non-metropolitan race. 
 
When determining the value of prizemoney, no account shall be taken of bonuses or added stakes payment not available to all horses eligible to be entered for the race. 
 
A win on the flat in any other country shall be deemed to be a metropolitan win except that, for the purpose of this condition, no account shall be taken of wins in maiden races in Australia and New Zealand.
