9.25. Straight Tricast
- A Straight Tricast bet is one where you choose three selections in a Horse or Greyhound race, to finish first, second and third in the correct order. The odds for the tricast will not be known at the time you place your bet. A computer generated straight tricast dividend is declared soon after the result. The tricast dividends are calculated in a similar fashion to the straight forecasts detailed in 9.18 above. In order to get a return you must pick the first, second and third placed selections in the correct order.
- For example, the following were actual tricast dividends. These are purely used as examples and dividends can vary upon a number of different factors:
1st 9/2 (5.50)
2nd 16/1 (17.00)
3rd 7/1 (8.00)
