Your Complete Guide to Dabble Quaddies

There is one thing that has been missing from the Dabble app since it launched in 2020 - Quaddies.
The online bookmaker has now added Quaddie betting to their finely-tuned app, and now racing punters can dabble in a Quaddie.

What is a Quaddie?

The Quadrella, or Quaddie for short, is an exotics bet type where four winners are needed from four consecutive races. Unlike a multi bet where punters have the option of selecting their own races to choose from, the four Quaddie legs are predetermined for each racecourse daily. For example, on a nine-race card at Flemington on Saturday, the Quaddie legs would be races 6, 7, 8 & 9.

  1. Open or download the Dabble app
  2. Select the ‘Betting’ Icon at the bottom of the app
  3. Select the race meeting you are interested in.
  4. Click on any race and there will be an option to toggle between bet types: Win/Place, Trifecta, Quaddie etc

How is the Dabble Quaddie Calculated?

The team at Dabble didn’t want to rush into this by offering the standard Tote payout for Quaddies, and instead, they have developed a unique product that is designed to pay out more on average for the punter.

Dabble Div Quaddies are calculated by the probability of the winning combination occuring. Meaning, the formula uses the Starting Price (SP) of each winner, the prices of other runners in the field, and the type of race.

While some Quaddies on Dabble may pay more than the Tote Quaddie Payout, and some may pay less, on average, the Dabble Div Quaddie Payout paid more during testing.

How Big Are Quaddie Payouts?
