Spotlight Lucky 15 tips: four horses to back on Saturday

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.

Just Ten High 5.35 Southwell
Well beaten on Lingfield Polytrack two starts ago but he prefers this surface (won only 7f attempt; the two defeats were over 1m) and showed plenty of dash from the front when successfully dropped to 6f here last week with blinkers replacing cheekpieces; up 3lb; good claims.

Optician 6.20 Wolverhampton
5-9 around here, his latest win coming over this trip 15 days ago with Parramount just under 3l back in third; 3lb worse off, but that was only his second attempt at the 1m6f and he won in good style, suggesting there may be even more to come under a similar test.

Grey Operations 7.05 Southwell
Improved form (finished third) over course and distance last month when making handicap debut and fitted with cheekpieces (now wears blinkers); could well build on that effort; highly respected off same mark.

Masqool 8.20 Wolverhampton
Runner-up in this race last year and he recorded his ninth AW win when making virtually all over C&D on Boxing Day; that was a very narrow success but he held off a clear second and is only 2lb higher; big player.

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.
