I'm new here and was wondering if the spreadsheet could be updated to inclue 7 horses as I regularly get the quinella with 7 horses, but only on 2 or 3 races.


Mad Gambler

Would that be in an 8 runner race leaving the favourite out?

I could do it but the market probably won't be conducive to it. I head off back to work for a month on Sunday but I will try to have a go before then. It should only take 26.5 hours at my current work rate.

Zlotti,
I would love to see the spread sheet,i think after all the time you spent working on it it deserves to be shown.
Lets keep these ideas rolling in, who knows it might trigger something.

Hi again everyone, To work out the approx div of a quinella instead of adding the prices you can do it this way, its not far off the mark. Whatever the winner pays for the win multiply it by 4. If the 2nd horse pays evens then thats the approx div.
examples
.Winner pays 6.00 2nd horse pays 2..a place. quin div approx 24.00
winner pays 6.00 2nd horse pays 1.50 place. quin div approx 12.00
winner pays 6.00 2nd horse pays 3.00 place quin div approx 48.00

Dimboola,
Sent that info. off to you on Thursday ( I think) and asked for a receipt for the email. Hadn't heard back, have you managed to check that email address
Chiller.

And if the 2nd horse doesn't pay evens? You have explained your first winner, how did you come up with 2 and 3?

Check out some div from past races and you'll see the pattern. Its not 100%, but it gives approx. If the 2nd horse doesn't pay evens and pays $1.50 you halve the div. Winner pays 6.00, 2nd pays 2.00. approx quin ( mult by 4, 6x4) 24.00
winner pays 6.00 2nd pays 1.50. approx quin 12.00
winner pays 6.00 2nd pays 3.00 approx div 36.00

winner pays 10.00 2nd pays 2.00 approx div 40.00
winner pays 10.00 2nd pays 1.50 approx div 20.00
winner pays 10.00 2nd pays 3.00 approx div 80.00


check past results, you'll see a pattern. Happy punting
