        Hi Aine,

        A Rule 4 is a perfectly normal thing to happen on Horse Racing. It is a deduction for when a runner comes out of the race meaning that your odds should change. It makes sense. Imagine Frankel was a non runner, the other horses odds would change massively! A Rule 4 accounts for this.

        So for example when a non runner happens the Rule 4 applies as follows:

        Odds Deduction
        1/9 or shorter 90p (in £)
        2/11 to 2/17 85p
        1/4 to 1/5 80p
        3/10 to 2/7 75p 
        2/5 to 1/3 70p
        8/15 to 4/9 65p
        8/13 to 4/7 60p
        4/5 to 4/6 55p
        20/21 to 5/6 50p
        Evens (1/1) to 6/5 45p
        5/4 to 6/4 40p
        13/8 to 7/4 35p
        15/8 to 9/4 30p
        5/2 to 3/1 25p
        10/3 to 4/1 20p
        9/2 to 11/2 15p
        6/1 to 9/1 10p
        10/1 to 14/1 5p
