Hi all

Can someone explain to me how does swinger payouts work? Reason I'm asking is that in meydan race 6 winner paid R83 a win and R13 a place second horse was fav third horse paid R10 a place

Swingers 1st n 2nd paid R4. 80?
Swingers 2nd an 3rd paid R11. 80 that first horse paid such a big place but swinger was small

Don't understand how this happens

I was also going to post about this...but then I realised that these are the results where the mystery Aus punter seems to have known the result and lumped on...or is it that tickets have been added after the event...

Think the result was 9/10/2/8...the 10 was odds on and the 9 and 2 were massive tote outsiders...

We'll never get a straight answer...

Sorry guys the phantom punter strikes again ?

How the MOD are going to turn around the TOTE image going forward is a MAJOR challenge for racing.😢

DUBAI (15 January, 2021) - Racing at Meydan on Saturday is the second part of the racecourse’s first double header of the season and highlighted by a pair of 2000m handicaps, one apiece on each surface and both for horses on the cusp of Dubai World Cup Carnival.

In the Al Tayer Motors, the 2000m turf handicap, the capacity field of 14 are set to face the starter with Ahesto Bero and Recordman sharing the burden of top weight.

The former, a 5-year-old Dubawi gelding making his first start for Ismail Mohammed, having represented Simon Crisford three times last season without joy. Ahesto Bero was a dual turf winner in Europe for Andre Fabre and will be having just his ninth career start, seventh on grass.

He is the mount of Fabrice Veron who said: “We would like to think he will prove a carnival horse, so this is a good spot to get him going. He has summered well; his work has been progressive, and he seems a nice new horse for the yard.”

Meanwhile, Recordman is one of two in the race for Satish Seemar and will be ridden by Tadhg O’Shea with Richard Mullen remaining loyal to Irish Freedom on whom he won a 1400m Abu Dhabi handicap in early November, the 7-year-old’s second career win and first locally. Mullen was also aboard Recordman when he doubled his career tally with his one UAE success to date, in a 2400m Abu Dhabi handicap in December 2019.

Mullen said: “It was not an easy choice certainly because I have won on both horses, but Irish Freedom is race fit whereas Recordman has been off since running in the 2000m dirt handicap on this card last year, so will benefit from the run.”

Retained by HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Jim Crowley is in UAE action for the first time this season, partnering Tafaakhor for the in-form Ali Rashid Al Rayhi. The owner’s second jockey, Dane O’Neill, partners Erwan Charpy’s Akwaan.

The 2000m dirt handicap, the Lincoln Navigator, has also attracted the maximum allowed field, in this case 16. Salem bin Ghadayer is enjoying a productive season and Royston Ffrench rides his local debutant Homespin, a homebred 4-year-old Speightstown gelding owned by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum and twice a winner, from ten starts, in Britain for Mark Johnston. Both wins were on turf whereas he was runner-up on both all-weather outings. This will be his dirt debut.

For the same owner, Xavier Ziani partners stable companion Untold Secret who has been kept busy this season and will be having his sixth start of the campaign. A 1950m Jebel Ali winner on his seasonal debut in November, the 9-year-old gelded son of Shamardal was most recently third at Jebel Ali just last Friday.

Mullen and Seemar combine with Miller’s House, a 4-year-old Munnings colt who impressed losing his maiden tag on his penultimate start, in a 1600m Meydan maiden, before failing to land a blow, but not beaten far, over 2000m at Sharjah.

Welsh Lord was impressive on his seasonal debut for Musabbeh Al Mheiri, readily landing a handicap over this 2000m dirt course and distance, defeating Meqdam who then gained revenge, seemingly outstaying him, over 2200m, also at Meydan.

Antonio Fresu was in the Welsh Lord saddle on both occasions and said: “He won well the first day, but was hanging left last time, so hopefully he makes my life easier this week!”

This is the final Meydan fixture before the eagerly awaited 2021 Dubai World Cup Carnival commences next Thursday.

The Win Dividend and Place Dividend has nothing to do with the swinger pool. The pools was small so I doubt there is commingling but Tabsheet states there is.

The favorite was 6/10. The Win Pool reached R6800 odd. The Place Pool R5300 odd. The Swinger Pool R2914 odd.

They were like about 128 places on the winner for the place dividend of R13.80 and about 169 for the place dividend of the third horse of R10.40. The majority of the places was on the favorite about 2900 places hence the inflated place prices on all other horses. In fact the Tote ran a loss here as they have to guarantee the minimum of R1.00 payout unless a dead heat.

The swinger pool is divided by three = R2914/3 = R971

9 and 10 swinger was taken about 202 times
2 and 10 swinger was taken about 86 times
2 and 9 swinger was taken about 9 times
