We explore the ins and outs of Tote Swinger betting, including how it works, dividend calculations, key rules, and more.

What is a Tote Swinger Bet?

The Tote Swinger bet aims to predict the finishing positions of two horses in the first three places of a race.

This bet is available on any race with six or more runners through the Tote.

The winning combinations for a Tote Swinger bet include:

• 1st and 2nd
• 1st and 3rd
• 2nd and 3rd

Combination Tote Swinger Bets

For greater flexibility and increased chances of selecting two horses that finish in the top three places, you can place a Tote Swinger bet featuring more than two horses.

This expands the number of possible combinations within your selected runners.

The number of bets involved in your Swinger increases with each unique combination of two runners within your total number of selected runners.

Here is an example to illustrate this concept:

• Minimum Unit Stake: 1p
• Minimum Total Stake: 50p

Expand Your Winning Potential with Multiple Horses in Tote Swinger

With Tote Swinger, you have the freedom to include more than two horses in your bet.

This becomes particularly useful when you come across a race with three runners that you simply can’t split.

By incorporating additional horses, you increase your chances of winning and enhance the excitement of your wager.

As you add more horses to your bet, your stake will also increase accordingly. Here’s how it works:

• A £1 Swinger on two horses costs £1.
• A £1 combination Swinger on three horses costs £3.
• A £1 combination Swinger on four horses costs £6.
• A £1 combination Swinger on five horses costs £10.

By exploring the possibilities of combination Swingers, you unlock greater opportunities to secure a winning outcome and potentially claim larger dividends.

How are Tote Swinger Dividends Calculated?

Before placing your Tote Swinger bet, it’s helpful to understand how your winnings, referred to as dividends in Tote betting, are calculated.

Tote Swinger is a pool bet, meaning that after deductions for running costs are made, the money wagered in the Tote Swinger pool is distributed among the winning bets based on the amount staked on each bet.

Consequently, the less popular a winning bet, the higher the payout.

For Tote Swinger dividends, the pool is divided into three equal parts, with each part allocated to one of the three winning combinations.

Key Tote Swinger Rules:

Here are some important rules to keep in mind when placing Tote Swinger bets:

Non-Runners:

If one of your selections is declared a non-runner after placing the Tote Swinger bet, the bet will be declared void, and stakes on non-runners will be refunded.

Reduced Field Size:

In Tote Swinger bets where the field size is subsequently reduced from six horses to four or five runners due to a non-runner (not one of your selections), a dividend will only be paid on the first and second-placed horses.
