Can anyone explain to me what the 'Sub Fav' is on the QTab listing of results? For some reason they only appear after a few races have been completed, the early results not showing them.

It appears on any race that is part of a daily double, extra double or treble (for example yesterday at Eagle Farm the daily double was R6 & 7, Extra Double R3 & 4 and Treble was R5, 6 & 7 so the subs were shown for races 3,4,5,6, & 7 (but not 1,2 & 8). What it means is that if you have selected a horse in your double or treble that is later scratched that selection is replaced with the "sub" in your bet. So for example say you had a bet in the Extra Double (R 3 & 4) and selected No 5 in Race 3 with No 1 in Race 4. In race 3 No 5 was a late scratching so your bet would have been transferred to the Sub (No 1) - therefore after the scratching your double would be 1 in R3 with 1 in R4 - would not have done you any good though!
