Couplings on the Pick Six now accepted?

According to the TAB rules updated July 2017 I see that:
2.3 BRACKETED HORSES
2.3.1
"Whenever in any race a trainer has two or more horse carded (including Reserve Runners) such horses shall be bracketed or coupled on the Totalisator for the Pick Six, 7 ,8 9 and 10 pools only."
However I see that that at Turffontein last weekend thos was not applied.
in race 7 no 2 WILL PAY wins and was bracketed with 9 & 11 but these were not included in the pick six dividend.

Have I misunderstood the rules, or have they been changed again since the July 2017 update?

If true we would have caught the pick 6
Zoro ??

Wonder if we will get reply or clarification?

Not sure which document the attachment is from, but from the document in the link you provided :

07. SOUTH AFRICAN RACING POLICIES
07.1 PLACE POOL
5 runners or less: No Place Betting
6 to 7 runners: Payouts first and second
12
8 to 15 runners: Payouts first, second and third
16 to 20 runners: Payouts first, second, third and fourth
07.2 JACKPOT POOL (PICK 4)
07.2.1 Bracketing of runners rule does not apply.
07.2.2 First timer rule does not apply.
07.3 PICK 6 POOL
07.3.1 Bracketing of runners rule does not apply.
07.3.2 First timer rule does apply.

That rule falls under INTERNATIONAL RACES.

SA rules say :07.3 PICK 6 POOL
07.3.1 Bracketing of runners rule does not apply.

Frodo I have now looked at the "new "rules and it does say horses are coupled with the same trainer ( I think they omitted to say, only overseas races?!.)....



2.3 BRACKETED HORSES:
2.3.1 Whenever in any Race, a trainer has two or more horses Carded (including Reserve Runners) such horses shall be bracketed or coupled on the Totalisator for the Pick 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 pools only.
2.3.2 Subject to the provisions of these Rules, whenever a bracketed horse wins a Race, all the horses in the bracket shall qualify for the purpose of the calculation and payment of Pick 6, 7, 8 ,9 and 10 Dividends, unless stated otherwise.

NO.NO.NO....I think he can now sue the tote........... :sick:

What was the name of the other horse/s that would have qualified?

Unbelievable - can't see any 'cover yr a*se' exceptions - so until further notice, couplings in the Pick Six DOES apply
