Betting is available daily with the Tote on the UK Quadpot. The Quadpot is often considered the baby brother to the Placepot. The aim of the Quadpot is to select a placed horse in each of the 4 Quadpot races. The Quadpot races are always races 3 - 6 unless otherwise stated. It is an ideal bet if you have missed the Placepot or if you have already been knocked out from the Placepot.
Calculating the cost of your Quadpot is identical to calculating a Placepot bet. Multiply the number of horses you pick in each race by one another. This will give you the number of units you have. Then multiply this figure by your selected stake. For example:
Stakes: Single line entries are accepted with a minimum stake of €2, rising thereafter in multiples of 50c. Permutation entries are accepted with a minimum stake of 50c, rising thereafter in multiples of 50c, providing a minimum total of €2 is staked.
Quadpot Rules
Horses can be selected by racecard number or horse name. Should the racecard number of an overnight declared runner be allocated to a reserve horse, the reserve horse(s) will be re-numbered sequentially in line with Tote Racecourse Cash Rules.
Should a Quadpot race become a walkover or a specified race is not run or is declared void, the pool(s) will operate on the remaining Quadpot races. In this event total stakes on permutation entries are applied in full to the remaining races. Where a selection becomes a non-runner it will be replaced by the Starting Price favourite.
Where there are joint favourites, the joint favourite with the lowest racecard number will be taken. Should the favourite be withdrawn before coming under Starters Orders and too late for a new favourite to be made, the horse returned at the next shortest price will be taken.
Where two or more horses are returned at the next shortest price, the one with the lowest racecard number will be taken. If no Starting Price is returned the first actual runner quoted in the Racing Post betting forecast will be taken. Should the Racing Post not publish a betting forecast, settlement will be made in line with Tote Racecourse Cash Rules. In the event of a Quadpot pool being cancelled bets for the pool concerned will be void.
