Forecast/Tricast
Forecasts
A forecast bet is one where you predict the first and second in a horse or greyhound race. For details of the sources used for forecast dividends, and additional rules relating to forecast betting please see our Rules for Horse Racing and Greyhounds.
Straight Forecast (SFC)
This bet involves 2 selections in 1 race finishing 1st and 2nd in the order named. A Straight Forecast (FC) dividend is declared based on the Starting Prices (SPs) of all the horses in the race. (A Straight Forecast is known in many countries as an Exacta).
Reverse Forecast (RFC)
This bet involves 2 selections in 1 race finishing 1st and 2nd in either order. As such there are 2 wager involved - two straight forecast wager.
Straight Forecast Doubles
SFC Doubles are staked in exactly the same way as ordinary doubles. The only difference is that you take 2 selections per race.
Both forecast predictions must be successful for there to be any return.
Straight Forecast Trebles
SFC Trebles are staked in exactly the same way as ordinary trebles. The only difference is that you take 2 selections per race.
All three forecast predictions must be successful for there to be any return.
It is always the number of races that determines the number of doubles and trebles
Tricasts
Tricast betting is generally offered in handicap races of 8 or more runners, where full race by race results are announced by SIS and from time to time, in certain other races providing the result and return are announced by SIS.
Straight Tricasts
This bet involves 3 selections in a race finishing first, second and third in the order named. (The closest equivalent to a Tricast in many countries is a Trifecta or a Tierce).
The selections must finish in the order you specify for any returns.
Combination Tricasts
This bet involves 3 selections in a race finishing first, second and third in any order.
To calculate the number of wager in a Combination Tricast (CTC) the formula is:
Number of selections x 2 preceding nubers
The selections must finish in the order you specify for any returns.
Permutations
It is also possible to 'perm' selections. For example, if you have made 3 selections (A, B and C) you can 'perm' all the possible doubles. In this case all the doubles possible are AB, AC, and BC; a total of 3 individual wager, or lines.
Similarly, if you have made 4 selections (A, B, C and D) you can also 'perm' all the possible doubles from these four. Now the doubles are AB, AC, AD, BC, BD, CD; a total of 6 individual wager, or lines.
Live Betting
Now you can bet on every twist and turn of the live game as the action unfolds. Nowhere else offers you as many different in-run markets as Victor Chandler live - such as which team will score next, who will get the next throw and even whether a goal will be scored from a penalty or not.
Asian Handicaps
Asian-style handicap betting was primarily created as a means of making betting on soccer matches more attractive to the customer and is very popular in the Far East. A handicap is created to give a roughly equal chance to both teams. The favoured team will have to overcome a deficit of goals, while the other team will have a head start in goals.
