Raviviisi

Raviviisi is a Finnish term used in horse racing betting to describe a five-selection wager on the outcomes of a day's races. The name combines ravit (horse racing) and viisi (five). It is offered by Finnish bookmakers, most notably Veikkaus, and is part of the country’s pari-mutuel betting options on horse racing.

In its standard form, a bettor selects five horses from a given racing program. Depending on the variant, the selections may need to win their respective races in a fixed order (an exact-five bet) or in any order. Payouts are determined by the number of correct selections and by the size of the betting pool; many versions pay only when all five selections win, while some permit partial winnings for four or fewer correct picks. The stake per line is set by the operator and bets can be placed at retail outlets or online. Results and payouts are published by the bookmaker and reflect the day’s racing program.

Variants and practice vary by operator and jurisdiction, but the core idea remains a five-pick multi-race bet. Some markets offer multiple ways to structure raviviisi, including combinations across several races or integration with other bets. The format is primarily used during standard race meetings rather than special events, and it is one of several multi-race betting options available to fans of horse racing in Finland.

Raviviisi is part of the broader landscape of horse racing betting in Finland and is related to other pari-mutuel formats and to the activities of Veikkaus and similar operators.
