TRAP 6 = BLACK/WHITE STRIPES
You can find more details i.e. name, age, race history, owners and trainers name in a booklet produced at each event, known as the “RACECARD”.
Don’t worry if this is the first time you’ve placed a bet. Check out our simple guide that gives you all the terminology you’ll need to know.
WIN - The simplest bet of all, just select the greyhound you think will win the race.
PLACE - A place-only bet means that you’re betting on a greyhound to finish in the top two, rather than just to win.
WIN/PLACE (EACH-WAY) - With an each-way bet, half of the stake goes to ‘win’ and remaining half ‘goes’ to place. If your selection comes second, you will receive a small portion of winnings and if they win you’ll get more.
EXACTA (FORECAST) – An exacta bet is a betting scenario in which you select two runners in the race and state the specific order in which they will finish, first and second.
QUINELLA (REVERSE FORECAST) - While in a straight forecast bet you have to correctly predict two participants finishing first and second in the exact order they finish, in a quinella bet your two selections can finish either first or second and you still win.
ALL-WAYS QUINELLA (COMBINATION FORECAST) - All-ways quinella bets allow the bettor to select three runners; the bet will win if two of the three selected runners finish the race in top two regardless of the order on the betting slip.
TRIFECTA (TRICAST) - A trifecta is like forecast but with 3 selections. In this bet type, you will select 3 runners to finish in first, second and third position in the exact same order as you predict them to win.
ALL-WAYS TRIFECTA (COMBINATION TRICAST) - This bet type is like a quinella. All-ways trifecta bets allow the bettor to select three runners; the bet will win if three of the selected runners finish the race in top three regardless of the order on the betting slip.
STRAIGHT 4 / PICK 4 - Pick the winning greyhound in the four selected Jackpot races (races 9 – 12).
PICK 6 - Pick the winning greyhound in the six selected Jackpot races (races 6 – 11).
NOTE: You must be 18 years or to place a bet. The Stadium operates a Think 25 policy, if any member of the party is lucky enough to look under 25 years, they will be asked to prove they are over 18 years of age with the appropriate ID.
