Trotting

Aside from the following special betting rules, the common betting rules apply. The special rules will take precedence over the common rules nevertheless.

1.) If one or both horses are non-runners the Head-to-Head is void. On the Norwegian trotting website (www.travsport.no) a non-runner is denoted by the letters “ST” next to the horse's name, and the horse will be at the bottom of the list. On the Swedish trotting website (www.atg.se) you will see the word “strukna” at the bottom of the list and any non-runners will be listed there. On the Danish site (danskespil.dk/dantoto) a non-runner will be at the bottom of the list, have a number from 1-99 and the letters “udg” in the odds column.

2.) If both horses are disqualified or do not finish the Head-to-Head is void. In Norwegian trotting a disqualified horse will have the letters “DG” next to it, and a horse that did not finish will have the letters “BR”. In Swedish trotting both are denoted by the letter “d” in the column where the finishing position is usually found. In Danish trotting, a disqualified horse will be denoted by “Dg” and a horse that did not finish will be denoted by “Dist”.
If only one horse is disqualified or does not finish, the other is declared the winner.

3.) In Norwegian trotting, if neither horse receives a place number, the one with the fastest time (“Saml Tid”) is declared the winner, unless they have the exact same time in which case the bet is rated as Dead Heat.

4.) In Swedish trotting, the times are not shown, so the horse closest to the top of the list will be the winner (it has been listed first because it was slightly faster than the other).

5. Trotting

  • All bets are settled according to the declared official result.
  • No subsequent change to the result will affect the settlement of the race in question.
  • All bets on Trotting are accepted at stated prices only - available on win only bets, place only bets and any other betting market.
  • Multiple bets will be settled as standard accumulators.

a.) Win Only Bets: Win Only bets are available on all Trotting races displayed on our websites, Each Way bets are not available.

b.) Place Only Bets: Place Only bets are offered for the majority of Trotting races. However, the number of places available are affected by the number of runners. Our terms state:

  • All races of 8 or more runners - 3 places.
  • All races of 4, 5, 6 and 7 runners - 2 places.
  • Races with less than 4 runners - Place betting will not be offered. If a race originally has 4 or more runners but there are enough non-runners to reduce the field to less than 4, all bets previously accepted as Place Only bets will be void and stakes returned.

c.) Daily Double: As well as being able to place multiple bets by combining selections from different races, it is also possible to bet on Daily Doubles when this event is offered.

The Daily Double involves two specifically nominated races each day. Returns for the Daily Double are based on its official returns and not on the multiplied returns of the two winners.

If there is a Dead Heat for first place in either or both of the Daily Double races, then all horses involved are considered to be winners of their race.

d.) Dead Heats: Dead Heat is a term that describes when two or more participants in an event are tied.

If a Dead Heat is declared on any event, half the stake is applied to the selection at full odds and the other half is lost. If more than two Dead Heats, the stake is proportioned accordingly.

e.) Win: If two or more horses Dead Heat for first place, then both horses are winners.

f.) Place: The following rules apply for Dead Heat places:

  • Two horses Dead Heat for 1st - fill two places
  • Three horses Dead Heat for 1st - fill three places
  • Two horses Dead Heat for 2nd - fill second and third places
  • Three horses Dead Heat for 2nd - fill second, third and fourth places.

g.) Non-Runners: In the event of a non-runner, the odds on the remaining runners are reduced in accordance with Tattersalls Rule 4 (c) as outlined below.

All bets on a horse declared a non-runner are void and stakes will be refunded. Any bets on the Daily Double are void if either horse included in the bet is a non-runner.
