The Site Non-Runner Rule – Detailed Explanation

The Criccode rules regulation includes complex non-runner rules for horseracing.

Reduction Factor System

What is a reduction factor?

• Adjustment of odds on matched bets when horse is declared non-runner
• Calculation of horse’s chances of winning (or being placed)
• Expressed as percentage
• Applied to remaining runners in market

How reduction factors work:

• Each horse gets reduction factor based on forecast price when market loads
• Factors may be updated periodically based on trading
• After ~15 minutes from scheduled ‘off’ time (5 minutes for Australian/US), factors updated only in exceptional circumstances
• The current reduction factor viewable on ‘info’ page or by asking the helpdesk.

When the non-runner declared:

• All matched bets on that horse are void
• Horse is removed from market
• Reduction factor applied to other horses based on non-runner’s final factor

Win Market Reductions

If a non-runner’s reduction factor is 2.5% or greater:

• The traded price of all matched bets on remaining horses reduced by non-runner’s final factor
• All unmatched offers to lay are cancelled

If a non-runner’s reduction factor is less than 2.5%:

• No reductions applied
• Unmatched bets are not cancelled

Example: Non-runner with 25% factor reduces traded price of 8.0 to 6.0

Place Market Reductions

All non-runner reduction factors are applied (even if less than 2.5%)

• Applied to potential winnings only, not traded price
• Unmatched offers to lay cancelled only if non-runner factor is 4.0% or greater

Example: 25% factor reduces potential winnings on 8.0 bet, resulting in revised price of 6.25

Image Suggestion – Reduction Factors:
Alt text: “Criccode rules and regulations showing reduction factor calculations for win and place markets”

Reduction Factor Application Details

How reductions are applied for exchange markets:

Win Market:

• Reductions made on traded price
• Example: 25% factor reduces 8.0 to 6.0
• Further reductions if another non-runner declared
• Price may be reduced multiple times

Place Market:

• Reductions made to potential winnings only
• The traded price appears unchanged but winnings reduced
• Example: £10 bet at 8.0 has £70 winnings
• 25% factor reduces winnings to £52.50
• The revised effective price is 6.25
• Price cannot be reduced below 1.01

Reserves:

• Reserve runner may appear in markets
• Has non-applicable reduction factor until confirmed runner
• Then applicable reduction factor may apply

Multiple non-runners:

• Removed in order they’re brought to the site’s attention
• If multiple non-runners at the same time: removed in racecard order
