UK Trifecta and Quartet - Offered In Designated Races Only
1 year 10 months ago
The other day at Lingfield there was no Trifecta or Quartet offered in certain races of the meeting. In particular Race 3 was not offered but in Race 1, 2 and 4 had. I assumed it was an error in loading these bet types.
Today at Haydock only races that had the Trifecta and Quartet was Race 3, 4 and 5.
I have come to an assumption that these bets are now based on field size. In the UK there are numerous races that have 4 to 7 runner fields. If this is the reason they are yet again losing their take out of 25%. Even if they took R1000 take out for the Trifecta and Quartet per race, that is R2000 minimum for two races. On a monthly basis they are going to lose 100k profit.
Bob, can you please find out from them.
Slowly but surely we killing racing in South Africa by not maximizing profits but paying for visuals.
