11.12.5 Dead Heats

If a dead heat or dead heats occur in a First4 Race:

(a) Units of betting entitled to a Dividend will be those which correctly selected all places from first to fourth not affected by the dead heat or dead heats and which also selected the Entrants involved in each dead heat in the placings affected by that dead heat. For example, if a dead heat occurs for second place, units of betting entitled to a Dividend will be those which selected first and fourth correctly and which also selected the Entrants involved in the dead heat in second and third places in either order; and

(b) The Dividends will be calculated by firstly dividing the Dividend Pool into a number of parts corresponding to the number of combinations that would entitle a unit of betting specifying one of those combinations to a Dividend under Rule 11.12.5(a)

(c) Each unbacked combination that would entitle a unit of betting specifying one of those combinations to a Dividend under Rule 11.12.5(a) will be carried forward to and added to the First4 Dividend Pool of the Succeeding First4 Race as determined by Board Policy.

(d) Which results in there being more than twelve winning Entrants in a First4, for the purpose of the declaration of dividends:

(i) All placings that result in there being more than twelve winning combinations in that First4 will not be taken into account; and

(ii) The Dividends will be calculated by firstly dividing the Dividend Pool into a number of parts corresponding to the number of combinations that would entitle a unit of betting specifying one of those combinations to a Dividend under Rule 11.12.5(a);

(iii) Each unbacked combination that would entitle a unit of betting specifying one of those combinations to a Dividend under Rule 11.12.5(a) will be carried forward to and added to the First4 Dividend Pool of the Succeeding First4 Race as determined by Board Policy.

11.12.6 Scratchings

Where a Race Entrant is Scratched from a First4 Race, the Board will refund all units of First4 betting placed on the Scratched Entrant.

11.12.7 Abandonments

Where a Race is abandoned all units of First4 betting on that Race will be refunded.

Any amount brought forward from any previous First4 shall be carried forward to the First4 Pool on the Succeeding First4 Race.
