Straight Forecast Double

  1. A Straight Forecast Double is a bet where you choose four selections from two events (2 selections in each of the events). In both events your selections must finish first and second in the correct order. A computer-generated straight forecast dividend is declared on each of the races (see Help, 8.20). In order to get a return, you must pick both the first and second placed selections in the correct order in each race.
  2. Bet returns are calculated by multiplying the two dividends together, which gives the return for a €1 stake. The final payout is then calculated by multiplying this figure by your placed stake.

    For example:

    You place a €0.50 bet on a Straight Forecast Double

    If the two dividends were €11.50 and €7.00

    The return for a €1 Straight Forecast Double is calculated as 11.50 x 7.00 = €80.50

    Therefore, a successful €0.50 Straight Forecast Double would return

    €80.50 x 0.50 = €40.25
