Cox Plate First Four

Home > Races > Group 1 Races > Cox Plate > Cox Plate Betting > Cox Plate First Four

A winning Cox Plate First Four is a dream for every serious punter. Sure, the Cox Plate First Four is a notoriously difficult bet; but it offers a humongous payout, as well as making you a permanent legend of the track.

For a winning Cox Plate First Four bet, you pick the first four runners to finish the race in their exact order of arrival. Even a new punter can tell that this is not an easy achievement, so many bettors opt for a Cox Plate First Four box bet.

While a First Four may seem intimidating, it's easy to place one at an online betting site. Click here to join Sportsbet now!

In a box bet you still choose the first four runners to come home, but the box option covers every combination of positioning within the first four places. While you have to invest a little more into your Cox Plate First Four box bet, you also have a much higher chance of walking away with enormous monetary rewards.

For example, the winning Cox Plate First Four in 2009 was:

1st – So You Think
2nd – Manhattan Rain
3rd – Zipping
4th – El Segundo

Obviously picking a winning First Four is not an easy thing to do, but the potential payout makes it all worthwhile. A winning Cox Plate First Four can pay out tens of thousands of dollars per dollar invested, so it is a very profitable bet to make when you win.

How To Pick Your Cox Plate First Four

To determine the strongest four runners in the Cox Plate field, you need to take some time and familiarise yourself with your favourites’ racing histories. By studying the form guides and collecting information on individual horses’ strengths and weaknesses, you enable yourself to make smarter decisions when placing your Cox Plate First Four bet.

New punters can check out our dedicated Cox Plate Form Guide page to learn more about how to read a form guide and which information might be helpful to your Cox Plate First Four.
