Refunds to wagering accounts following scratchings
58A Refunds to wagering accounts following scratchings
Subject to subregulation (2) and the rules of wagering, where a runner (or one of the runners) on which a wager other than —
a favourite numbers wager; or
a sweepstakes wager,
has been placed with RWWA using a wagering account is scratched before the start of its race or declared a non‑starter, the investor who placed a wager on (or involving) that runner with RWWA is entitled to have a refund of the wager amount credited to his or her wagering account.
Where a refund is payable under subregulation (1) due to a scratching, and the investor entitled to the refund wishes to obtain that refund prior to the running of the race, the investor may, on request, obtain a refund of —
the wager; or
if the wager is on one of 2 or more wagers for which a single ticket number is generated, and none of the wagers have been decided — the total value of the wagers relating to that ticket number,
prior to the running of the race, if the request is made before the close of wagering for each and every race to which the particular ticket number relates.
