Q. How does Flexi-Betting work?
A. The amount you invest is calculated as a percentage of the full dollar dividend.
Example: a boxed First 4 with 5 runners costs $120 to receive 100% of the dividend. If you invest $30, your percentage is 25% of the dividend.
FIRST 4 - Select the 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th placegetters. Can be in order (1,2,3,4), Standout (one horse to win only), Multiple or Boxed. Sportsbet offers online First 4 betting for Australian thoroughbred horse racing and match Victorian TAB tote prices.
Box First Four Cost Calculator (100%): 4 runners - $24 | 5 runners - $120 | 6 runners - $360 | 7 runners - $840 | 8 runners - $1680 | 9 runners - $3024
Standout (one runner to win) First Four (100%): + 3 runners - $6 | + 4 runners - $24 | + 5 runners - $60 | + 6 runners - $120 | + 7 runners - $210 | + 8 runners - $336 | + 9 runners - $504
Multiple First Four Calculator Formula: use this system to calculate the cost of a First Four. In this example, you are including your first selections for second, your first & second selections for third, and your first, second & third selections for fourth. Simply multiply the number of horses selected for first by the number for second minus 1, then multiply by the number of third selections minus two, and the number of fourth selections minus 3.
Eg: A & B for 1st, A & B & C for 2nd, A & B & C & D for 3rd, A & B & C & D & E for fourth - the formula is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = $16.
QUINELLA - Choose two or more runners to finish 1st & 2nd in any order.With three or more runners, your selections are BOXED. Sportsbet offers Quinella betting online for Australian Thoroughbred, Harness & Greyound racing and match home tote prices.

7 runners - $21 | 8 runners - $28| 9 runners - $36 | 10 runners - $45 | 11 runners - $55
EXACTA - two or more runners to finish 1st & 2nd in exact order. You can choose one runner to win (Standout) and any number of selections to finish 2nd, or you can box your selections to finish in any order.
Box Exacta Cost Calculator (100%) : 3 runners - $6 | 4 runners - $12 | 5 runners - $20 | 6 runners - $30 | 7 runners - $42 | 8 runners - $56 | 9 runners - $72 | 10 runners - $90 | 11 runners - $110
Flexi-Betting gives you a percentage of the full dividend and (unlike the TAB) is available on Quinella & Exacta wagers with Sportsbet.

Can be in order (1,2,3), Standout (one horse to win only), Multiple or Boxed. Sportsbet offers online Trifecta betting for all Australian racing and match home tote prices.

Standout (one runner to win) Trifecta (100%): + 3 runners - $6 | + 4 runners - $12 | + 5 runners - $20 | + 6 runners - $30 | + 7 runners $42 | + 8 runners - $56 | + 9 runners - $72 | + 10 runners - $90
Multiple Trifecta Calculator Formula: use this system to calculate the cost of a Trifecta bet. In this example, you are including your first selections plus one more runner for second and your second selections plus two more runners for third.
