Why are deductions applied?

Deductions are an industry-wide requirement of fixed odds betting on racing. They occur due to scratchings and are applied as a deduction of cents in the dollar (effectively, a percentage) from your potential payout. It is a necessary re-framing of the market if runners are scratched from the final field.
All final field scratchings will incur a deduction to eligible fixed odds bets.
A fixed odds bet is eligible for a deduction if the relevant scratching occurs after the bet has been placed. Any scratchings from before the bet is placed do not impact the bet.
Example: You place a $10 win bet on a horse with fixed odds of $2.50. Any scratchings that occurred before your bet was placed do not apply. However, there are scratchings after you place your bet which incur a total of $0.20 deduction per dollar (20%).

To calculate the payout when your bet wins:
1. $10 stake x $2.50 odds = $25 potential payout
2. $25 potential payout x $0.20 deduction per dollar (20%) = $25 x 0.20 = $5 deducted amount
3. $25 potential payout - $5 deducted amount = $20 actual payout.
