Greyhound racing - We accept Tricasts on all races where 6 or more runners actually run. Horse racing - We accept Tricast bets on all Handicap races where 8 or more runners are declared and 6 or more actually run.
Tricasts, for selections to finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd in correct order, are acceptable in races for which an official Tricast return is declared. Selections for horse races must be named however trap numbers will be taken for greyhounds. In the event of any ambiguity the Tricast bet will be declared void, as will any Tricast bet in which the same selection is repeated.
A 10% Bonus will be paid on winning Tricasts in Horse races more than 1m 1f.
a) Tricasts are acceptable in SINGLES only. In the event of Tricast doubles being taken in error, the total stakes for the doubles will be divided and invested equally as Tricast singles for the selected races. A similar rule is applied to Tricast trebles etc. Instructions for permutations must be specific, otherwise the bet will be settled as a straight Tricast to the stake available.
b) A Tricast including an unnamed favourite selection will be declared void.
c) Tricasts will be settled in accordance with the official Tricast return.
d) Should selections for a tricast include one non-runner, the stake will be invested as a Computer Straight Forecast on the remaining two selections in the order given, (except for combination purposes), with the non-runner being discounted. For the purpose of settlement it should be noted that a permutation is a series of straight Tricasts. Should a Tricast include two non-runners, the Tricast is treated as a non runner for settlement purposes.
e) If, for any reason, a Tricast is taken for a race for which an official Tricast return is not declared, settlement will be made as follows:-
(i) Where all three selections run, settlement will be made as a Computer Straight Forecast on the selections nominated to finish 1st and 2nd, with the selection for 3rd place being discounted.
For the purpose of combination bets the stake will be invested as a full cover Combination Forecast Bet.
(ii) Where the selections include non-runner(s), settlement will be made in accordance with section 18.4 of these rules.
