Do you have any betting tips?

We have a couple of suggestions to keep in mind as general rules to get the best “value” out of each bet.

1. Always check across your betting accounts and place the bet with the bookmaker giving you the best odds.
2. Try to place your bet as late as possible. Just prior to the jump, the market percentage is at its lowest, so on average, you will get the best odds if you bet as late as possible which will put more money into your pockets over time…
3. …But if you want/need to place your bet early (or think the price might shorten), we suggest using Bet365 who offer “odds drift protection” which will give you the higher of the starting price or your fixed price.
4. Promotions and special offers such as Bet Boosts, Bonus Bets Back, Odds Drift Protection, Top Tote Prices etc provide real and easy value to every Punter. Having a variety of accounts that offer these types of benefits will significantly increase your returns.
5. Be familiar with how each bookmaker treats things like place bets in small races (and after scratchings), dead heats, deductions and calculates exotic dividends to avoid surprises. Where possible, place your bets with the bookmaker who offers the most favourable terms for such bets.
6. Most importantly, only ever bet what you can afford. Horse racing is a great pastime, and winning is great fun – but the fun shouldn’t be taken away by having a losing day.
