Total 3 combinations Total 1 combination Total $144

• Example: 19 / 06 / 2016 Sha Tin Race 6

o Customer A thinks that HAPPY METEOR (No. 3) has a high winning chance because it won

easily over the same trip recently. Also, BORNTOACHIEVE (No. 2), ELITE SPIRIT (No. 8)

and TRAVEL NUMBER ONE (No. 12) have good top three chance since they are trip winners

in this season. Therefore, customer A selects HAPPY METEOR as banker and

BORNTOACHIEVE, ELITE SPIRIT and TRAVEL NUMBER ONE as other selections to bet

on Quinella. Finally, HAPPY METEOR won the race and BORNTOACHIEVE ran second.

Customer A collected the dividend

Real Case Example

Multiple

Selected horses will be

formed of all possible

combinations

Example:

• Boxing No. 2, 5,

8,11

• Usually your favourite horses have equal chance to win

• A common way of Multiple bet: Boxing 4 horses (total 6 combinations)

Total 6 combinations

Multiple

• Example: 22 / 06 / 2016 Happy Valley Race 7

o APACHE SPIRIT (No. 12) won over this trip in last race. HAPPY BAO BEI (No. 5) and BLAZE

STAMINA (No. 1) have advantage by starting at inside draws. TOP BONUS (No. 8) is ridden by

Champion Jockey J Moreira. Customer A thinks these 4 horses have equal chance to win.

Therefore, he bet on Quinella Place by Multiple on the 4 selections, and he is eligible to the

Quinella Place dividend if any 2 selected horses finished in the top three positions. Finally, 3 of the

4 selections finished in the top three positions. Customer A collected the dividend

(14) GOLDEN GUNNERS

3.8

• Example (1): Select Overnight Favourites (A1), 14/05/2016 Sha Tin Race 4

o Customer A thinks LOVE SHOCK (No. 6) has a greater chance to win because it is ridden by

Champion Jockey J Moreira. And he thinks only ADVENTURER (No. 1), which won over this

trip in last race, can beat LOVE SHOCK. Both horses are grouped into A1, so it is safer for him

to bet on A1 than on LOVE SHOCK’s Win directly. Finally, LOVE SHOCK lost the race and

ADVENTURER won. Customer A collected the dividend

Why placing bet on 3 Pick 1 (Composite Win) but not on Win directly?

• Example (2): Select Overnight Mid-Pricers (A2), 22/05/2016 Sha Tin Race 4

o Customer A thinks the 1st favourite horse AMAZING KIDS (No. 3) has risk of being defeated.

However, he has no idea which horse could beat AMAZING KIDS. He also thinks other

outsiders won’t have any surprises. The highly possible horses to beat AMAZING KIDS would

be the 2nd, 3rd and 4th favourite horses, i.e. NOT LISTENIN'TOME (No. 1), PENIAPHOBIA (No.

2) and CHARLES THE GREAT (No. 5). Finally, PENIAPHOBIA won the race. Customer A

collected the dividend

(9) DIVINE BOY 3.0


• Example (3): Select Other Outsiders (A3), 01/07/2016 Sha Tin Race 1

o Customer A doesn’t like any favourite horses. He thinks the result will be surprised by the

outsiders but it’s difficult to pick one as there are many outsiders. Therefore, he chooses to bet

on A3. Finally, PAKISTAN STAR (No. 6) won the race. Customer A collected the dividend



1st and 2nd favourite (3) ARM RUNDA | (7) BEAR CHUM 1.8


3rd, 4th and 5th favourite (1) CALL ME HANDSOME | (11) CHEER WIN | (14) SEA JADE 2.2
