Reverse Forecast Double
- A Reverse Forecast Double bet is one where you choose at least two selections from two or more events. Your selections must finish first and second in either order in at least two events. A computer-generated straight forecast dividend is declared for each of the races (see Help, 8.20). This will require multiple stakes, based on the number of selections. In order to get a return, you must pick both the first and second placed selections in any order in at least two races.
Example A:
You select 2 Horses in Race 1 and 2 Horses in Race 2 in Reversed Forecast doubles.
There are 2 combinations of Straight Forecasts in each race. The number of bets is calculated by multiplying these figures.
2 x 2 = 4 Reversed Forecast Doubles. This bet will cost €4 for a unit stake of €1
Example B:
You select 3 Horses in Race 1 and 2 Horses in Race 2 in Reversed Forecast doubles
There are 6 combinations of Straight Forecasts in Race 1 and 2 in Race 2. The number of bets is calculated by multiplying these figures.
6 x 2 = 12 Reversed Forecast Doubles. This bet will cost €12 for a unit stake of €1
- Bet returns are calculated by multiplying the two dividends together, which gives the return for a €1 unit stake. The final payout is then calculated by multiplying this figure by your unit stake placed. See example in 8.23 above.
