Jockey Challenge

A market is offered on which jockey will score the most number of points for winners and place-getters for the specified Thoroughbred meeting.

Points are awarded on a 3, 2, 1 basis for the placing of 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively in each race. If two or more jockeys finish the meeting on the same number of points, the dead heat rule applies.

If a meeting is abandoned or postponed all wagers will be refunded unless a jockey has an unassailable lead, in which case wagers struck on that jockey will be settled as winning.

In the event of a dead heat for a win or place in any race, the points will be shared equally, as outlined in the below table.


Dead Heat for 1st Dead Heat for 2nd Dead Heat for 3rd
1st 2.5, 2.5 3 3
2nd 0 1.5, 1.5 2
3rd 1 0 0.5, 0.5

‘All In’ betting rules apply.

All possible combinations may not be listed within the market, however, all combinations will be taken into for settlement purposes. Dead heat and ‘All In’ betting rules apply.
