Simulcast and betting arrangements for Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) Day and Prix du Jockey Club Day

30/05/2025 20:14

HKJC Horse Race Betting Limited will simulcast a total of 12 overseas races in Hong Kong on Sunday, 1 June, including seven races of Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) Day from Tokyo Racecourse in Japan and five races of Prix du Jockey Club Day from Chantilly Racecourse in France. Bets will be accepted* for these races.

To provide more jackpot opportunities (referred to as “Boosters” in France), Pari Mutuel Urbain (PMU) of France has introduced a Jackpot Reserve for Win and Place bets. The deduct rate will be 0.1699% of the turnover for the relevant pool, which will be returned as jackpots for designated French races. For Prix du Jockey Club Day, a jackpot of EUR 90,000 (approximately HK$793,710) will be offered for the Win pool of S2-5.

As with previous arrangements for the French outbound commingling pools△, Win and Place bets of Prix du Jockey Club Day will be outbound commingled with the respective pools operated by PMU, the Club’s outbound commingling partner, in accordance with the modified horse race betting rules of PMU. Quinella, Quinella Place and other exotic bet pools will still be operated under separate Hong Kong pools.

The betting method for the outbound pools is the same as the method for betting on Hong Kong pools. The odds are calculated according to PMU’s method, that is, the investment is deducted prior to the division of the dividend pool (Photo 1). The odds displayed will change to show the odds of the PMU pools when the Hong Kong investment of the current race has been outbound commingled with PMU, and after the dividends of the preceding race have been confirmed.  The Place odds are the minimum value odds in the range (Photo 2).  In other words, the final Place odds could either be the same or higher than the value indicated. For more information on outbound commingling, customers can visit the Club’s website at https://campaigns.hkjc.com/outbound-commingling/en/.
