What is a Rule 4?
In all horse races, excluding ante-post bets, if a horse is withdrawn, not under starter’s orders, bets will be settled in accordance with Tattersall’s Rule 4(c), which lays down that backers of the withdrawn horse will have their stakes refunded.
When there has not been time for the market to reform, deductions are made from winnings (exclusive of stake) according to the table below.
