Ie bets previously placed will stand. However as a gesture of goodwill if a customer rings prior to the race we are open to cancelling a wager on a case by case scenario.
- In the event a change of course or surface change occurs, and scratched runners are reinstated, all previous bets taken on the race are void.
- Regardless of whether a 'Futures event(All in betting)' has been abandoned, postponed or transferred from the original date, all bets placed pre the barrier draw stand until the completion of the event. All bets placed after the final field is announced will be subject to refund and members must resubmit new wagers on the event.
- Scratchings
- A 'scratching' occurs when a horse is withdrawn from a race in which it is nominated.
- If a runner is scratched after the declaration of the final field of a given race:

- All wagers that were placed on the scratched runner after the declaration of the final field will be voided;

- Any wagers placed on the nominated 'Favourite' will be subject to a standard Deduction calculated in accordance with the Southern Cross Bet Schedule of Deductions; and

- 'Dead Heat' Rule (Racing)

- Any 'Fixed Odds', 'Top Fluctuation','Official Starting Price' or other fixed price wagers on the tied runners will be paid out at the face value of the relevant wagering ticket divided by the number of runners involved in the Dead Heat; and
- Any wagers on 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' products will be paid out in accordance with the dividends declared by the TABs (which will have been adjusted to account for the 'Dead Heat').

- Where there are seven (7), six (6) or five (5) runners in a given race, 'Fixed Odds (Place)' wagers (including where the place component of any fixed price 'Each-Way' bet is to be paid at the 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend) will be paid only in respect of the 1st and 2nd placegetters.
- Where there are less than five (5) runners in a given race (including where the field is reduced as a result of late scratchings), all 'Fixed Odds (Place)' wagers (including the place component of any fixed price 'Each-Way' if said component is to be paid at the 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend) will be voided.

- If the total amount of any totalisator pool for any product is less than five hundred dollars ($500.00), Southern Cross Bet may, at it sole and absolute discretion, disregard such totalisator pool in the calculation of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' dividend.
- Southern Cross Bet may, at its discretion, place a limit on the payout in respect of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager such that the dividend at which a Customer's wager is paid will not be more than 50% greater than (i.e. 1.5 times) the amount of the lowest of the dividends declared by the three Australian TABs.
- In the event that any tote dividend is more than 50% higher than either the Official Starting Price or any of the dividends declared by the other Australian TABs, Southern Cross Bet may exclude or disregard the irregular dividend for the purposes of calculating the payout of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager.
- Southern Cross Bet reserves the right to cancel any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager of a Customer where that Customer or their associates have manipulated any of the totalisator pools.
- If, pursuant to this Clause, any tote dividend/s has/have been excluded or disregarded for the purposes of calculating the payout of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager, the following rules shall apply:

- Successful 'Middle Tote' wagers will be paid out as the average of those tote dividends that have not been excluded or disregarded.

QuinellaA Quinella is when the Customer has predicted the two runners that placed first and second, irrespective of the specific order in which those runners finished.ExactaAn exacta is when the Customer has predicted the two runners that placed first and second in the correct order.TrifectaA Trifecta is when the Customer has predicted the three runners that placed first, second and third in the correct order.First FourA First Four is when the Customer has predicted the four runners that placed first, second, third and fourth in the correct order.QuadrellaA Quadrella (or 'Quaddie') is when the Customer has predicted the winners of the four races designated by the Victorian TAB as forming part of the Quadrella.
- For all racing exotics, the Customer will receive the dividend declared by the Victorian TAB.

- If the Customer has a Unit Stake of greater than 1, the Customer will receive the dividend derived by dividing the amount of the Victorian TAB jackpot by the Customer's Unit Stake; or
- If the Customer has a Unit Stake of less than 1, the Customer will receive the dividend derived by multiplying the amount of the Victorian TAB jackpot by the Customer's Unit Stake.
- In the unlikely event that the Victorian TAB is not offering racing exotics in the location in which the Customer's exotic wager is struck, the Customer will receive the lowest of the dividends declared by the Victoria TAB and Queensland TAB.
- Southern Cross Bet reserves the right to limit the total payout to a Customer in respect of a successful racing exotics wager if the total amount to be paid out to a Customer would exceed the total amount held in the relevant Victorian TAB pool. In such an event, Southern Cross Bet may, acting in its sole and absolute discretion, limit the total payout to an affected Customer to the total amount held in said Victorian TAB pool.
- Except in the case of Quadrella bets, if a runner forming part of a Customer's exotics selections is either scratched or declared a 'non-runner' after the placement of the wager, the Customer will receive a refund in respect of every combination that includes the scratched runner.
- In the case of Quadrella bets, if the Customer's Quadrella selections include a runner or runners that is/are later scratched, the 'substitute' (as nominated by the Victorian TAB) will be added to the Customer's selections in place of each of the Customer's selections that have been scratched.

- Wagers placed on a jockey/box that does not take part in at least one (1) race in the relevant meeting will be voided.
- In the event that a race meeting, or any race comprising that meeting, is postponed, abandoned or declared a 'no-race' by stewards, all wagers in a 'Jockey/Box Challenge' market will be voided unless, at the time of the postponement, abandonment or the first declaration of a 'no-race', a jockey/box has a wholly unassailable lead in the Jockey/Box Challenge in which event all wagers (both successful and unsuccessful) will be settled as if the meeting had proceeded to completion. In the event of an abandonment, postponement or "no -race" and a jockey / box has a lead in which a tie is the worst-case-scenario, all relevant bets shall be voided regardless.
- In the case of 'Box Challenge' markets, points are accrued on the basis of the runner's rug number regardless of which 'box' the runner actually starts from.
- In the case of 'Jockey/Box Challenge - Exact Score' markets, if there is a tie for victory in the 'Jockey/Box Challenge' - and accordingly no winning score - all wagers placed in the market will be deemed to have lost.
- Deductions
- A 'Deduction' is a reduction in the fixed price dividend taken by a Customer owing to one or more of the other runners in the same event being withdrawn (i.e. scratched).
- A fixed price wager may be eligible for a Deduction if:
