Spotlight Lucky 15 tips: four horses to back at Carlisle and Leicester on Sunday

What is a Lucky 15?

A Lucky 15 is one of the most popular multiple bets among horseracing punters and the clue is in the name as a Lucky 15 consists of 15 bets on four selections in different events. That equals four singles, six doubles, four trebles and a fourfold accumulator.

The beauty of the Lucky 15 is that only one selection of four must win to guarantee a return and the majority of bookmakers will offer incentives to play the bet.

Horsesomeharry 12.20 Carlisle
Unexposed 6yo who displayed improvement to make winning handicap debut on outer course here (2m4f, good to soft) in first-time cheekpieces last month; could easily have more to offer and Ben Smith claims a very useful 8lb today; major player.

Kit's Coty 1.15 Leicester
Hurdle winner; solid third, splitting subsequent scorers, at Ludlow (3m) last time for a promising chase debut; open to progress in this sphere and warrants major respect off unaltered mark.

Jacks Parrot 1.55 Carlisle
Ex-French 5yo who won a three-runner handicap chase at Uttoxeter (3m, heavy) in April on his second stable start and followed up in a ten-runner contest at Perth (3m, soft) three weeks later; shapes as though today's stiff track will suit and this half-brother to stable star Iroko is open to further improvement; key player provided the absent tongue-tie isn't an issue.

Lunar Ocean 2.50 Leicester
5yo maiden who is threatening to win a race of this nature, having finished a good second in both starts since joining new yard and switched to fences, latest at Huntingdon (2m4f) behind a rival who was on the middle leg of a hat-trick; respected up just 2lb.

How to calculate your Lucky 15 returns?

How much your bet returns will depend on how many selections win, and their respective odds. For example, if two of your selections win then you can expect to be paid on on two single bets, and a double of the two selections. If three selections win then you can expect to be paid out on three singles, three doubles and a treble, and so on.
