What is in a Trixie
4 bets on 3 selections:
| Part of the bet | Bets |
|---|---|
| Doubles | 3 |
| Trebles | 1 |
| Total | 4 |
A Trixie is cheaper than a Patent (four stakes instead of seven) because it drops the singles. Pick it when you expect at least two of the three to win.
How the return is worked out
Each line is settled on its own: the line stake times the decimal odds of every selection in it, multiplied together. A losing selection makes every line it is in return nothing. A void selection counts as odds of 1.0. For each way bets the place part uses place odds: (decimal odds − 1) × place fraction + 1.
line return = stake × odds₁ × odds₂ × … and total return = sum of all line returns
Worked example
£1 a line: A at 5/2 (won), B at 7/4 (lost), C at 3/1 (won). Total stake £4.00.
| Line that pays | Part | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| A + C | Win | £14.00 |
| Total return | £14.00 | |
| Profit | £10.00 |
Not included: rule 4 deductions, dead heats, each way extra places and bookmaker bonuses (for example double odds on a single winner). Your bookmaker's settlement is final.
