Poogle Racing

Poogle Racing is all the rage in Faerieland! Neopets come from all across Neopia to cheer and bet on their favourite Poogle. Every 15 minutes (NST) there is a new race. The races begin at 0, 15, 30 and 45 minutes past every hour.

There are five Poogles you can bet on. Each has different odds which correspond both to how likely they are to win and how much your bet is multiplied by as a payout if you win.

Poogle 1
Odds: 3:1

Poogle 2
Odds: 4:1

Poogle 3
Odds: 5:1

Poogle 4
Odds: 7:1

Poogle 5
Odds: 9:1

Betting on a Poogle

First, pick a Poogle to bet on. Keep in mind that while you can win big on Poogles Four and Five, they are much less likely to win than Poogle One. Bet wisely! If you've got some food in your Inventory, you can feed it with one of your items, which can help but not guarantee your Poogle will win.

On the betting page, if you refresh a little, sometimes the Scorchio bet taker will also tell you that one of the Poogles is sick. These lines are canned: he will always say that #2 has Neggitus and #3 has Itchy Scratchies. It does not have any connection to the race outcome.

When the race starts, you must click to watch the race. If you don't click, you cannot collect a winning bet—you don't get to know the outcome at all! You don't actually have to watch the race though, and can click the button at the bottom to find out the result at any time.

You can cheer your Poogle on by clicking repeatedly on "Cheer for [number]" though the outcome is predetermined and your cheering does not actually help. Also, you can cheer for the opposing Poogles, too, for some reason! If the Poogle you chose wins, click on "Return to Main Page" to collect your Neopoints and avatar.
