Victoria Derby Quinella

Home > Races > Group 1 Races > Victoria Derby > Victoria Derby Betting > Victoria Derby Quinella

Going with a Victoria Derby quinella can sometimes be the best option, especially when there are two very strong favourite in the race. It allows you to forget about choosing a winner and focus just on the first two finishers.

Just in case you are new to betting, here’s an explanation of a quinella. A quinella is a bet on the first two horses to finish in a race. The order they finish in does not matter, you just need to pick the right runners.

An example of a winning Victoria Derby quinella from 2009 would have been:

  • Monaco Consul
  • Extra Zero

While Monaco Consul came first and Extra Zero second, this Victoria Derby quinella would have won even if the order had been Extra Zero followed by Monaco Consul. Don’t be deceived by the apparent ease of the quinella, though, as it still pays out big like an exotic bet should!

How to Pick the Victoria Derby Quinella

The good news if you are trying to pick the Victoria Derby quinella is that it is much easier than other exotic bets. Picking the two frontrunners in any order is far simpler than picking the first three or four in exact order.

With that said, you should still do some research. The best runners in the AAMI Vase the week before are always well worth considering, though you should generally ignore fillies as they just do no win the Victoria Derby in the modern age.

Where to Place a Victoria Derby Quinella

A Victoria Derby quinella is best placed at an online betting site like Luxbet. These sites offer great odds and an easy betting interface that makes placing exotic bets intuitive. Additionally, Luxbet offers generous bonus bets, especially to Races.com.au players.

Placing a Victoria Derby Box Quinella

There is little reason to placing a Victoria Derby box quinella, as a quinella already has some flexibility in finishing positions. The only time you should really consider it is when you cannot narrow your selections down to two runners.

Again, if you are placing a box Victoria Derby quinella, you should definitely do it through an online betting site. It really is an easier and more convenient process overall, so be sure to sign up for an account at Luxbet to give it a try.
