Fairdeal Sportsbook Scratches on Multi Race Horse Betting
Any scratches after the first leg of the multi race ticket that has been
completed with a loss will result in a losing horse betting ticket. An example
would be if a gamblers first race lost and the gamblers horse in the next race
was scratched. The ticket would be a losing horse betting ticket due to the
combination including a loser. If the selection on the earlier stage of the
multi-race bet are correct, then the scratches occur in the middle or later
legs, this would allow those multi-race horse betting wagers to be refunded.
(This is different from the race track that produce winners via consolation
payout.)
Fairdeal Sportsbook Horse Betting on Coupled Horses
Horses that belong to one owner or under one trainer running in the same race
are coupled together. When a gamblers horse racing bet is on one, the gambler
also gets the other; you get horse 1 and horse 1a, for example. When one of the
coupled horses wins, both horses win. In the case that both horses finish, the
higher payout will be applied. In the event of a scratch the gambler has action,
unless both coupled horses scratch.
Fairdeal Sportsbook Horse Betting on Field Entry
When there are a large amount of horses running in a race, several horses are
grouped together as field horses. For payouts and refunds on horse betting the
same rules as Coupled Entry apply. Horse betting tickets must be finalized
before the race starts. Placing wagers after the start of the race will be "no
action" and all monies will be refunded.
* Full Track Odds + 10% is offered at selected tracks only
Fairdeal Sportsbook Horse Betting Racing Rules
FairDeal sportsbook software system will allow a gambler to place a
horse racing bet before the scheduled post time. The time left to wager on each
race is made available on the website. Any tickets placed after this time will
be void.
When placing wagers on a horse they will generally be identified by name not
the number.
Payouts may vary according to horse betting type and track. In most cases full
track odds are paid with a maximum payoff. There is no maximum payoff for Win,
Place and Show, which will be paid out at track odds. Exotics will have a
maximum payoff.
In the event there is a horse racing bet made with no track results or payout
information posted, the wager will be refunded to your sportsbook account. An
example of this would be, 1) scratch horses reducing the number of entries, 2)
no payout results (the race did not run).
Tickets cannot be graded until the official results have been posted. Funds
will be credited to your sportsbook account usually within 10 to 15 minutes
after the official results have been posted.
FairDeal does not offer Consolation Payouts because we do not belong
to the Pari-Mutuel pool. We do not have pool money that must be returned to the
bettors.
A horse is scratched when it is listed as an entry but does not run in the
race. A horse may be scratched early in the day or minutes before the start of
the race.
