HOW TO BET

There are a wide variety of bets and combinations you can place on every race. Below is an example of each type of bet you can place.

Please note that you can place all of these bet types at all the Bookmakers, Tote or Betting Shops you can find at the racecourse, not just the Tote.

A very popular way of betting, this is simply a 'Win' bet and a 'Place' bet on the same horse.

To place a £2 'each way' bet on horse number 4 say "£2 each way on 4".

Please note this will cost you £4 as a £2 each way bet is the equivalent of 2 bets- a bet to win and a bet to place.

Pick the horses to finish 1st and 2nd in the correct order.

This is obviously more difficult than just picking the winner, but the rewards are potentially much greater.

Or you can try a 'reverse' exacta to increase your chances (e.g. a reverse exacta means you pick the first two to finish in any order, but this classes as two bets).

To place a £2 'exacta' bet on horse number 4 to win and horse number 6 to come second simply say "£2 exacta on 4 and 6"

To place a £2 'reverse exacta' bet on horse number 4 and horse number 6 to come first and second in any order simply say "£2 reverse exacta on 4 and 6"

Please note this will cost you £4 as a £2 reverse exacta bet is the equivalent of 2 bets- a bet on 4 to win and 6 to come second, and a bet on 6 to win and 4 to come second.

Pick the horses to finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the correct order in a trifecta race. Get this right and you could win big!

To place a £2 trifecta on horse number 4 to win, 6 to come second and 8 to come third say "£2 trifecta on 4, 6 and 8"

This is racing's favourite bet - and it couldn't be simpler!

Just pick a horse to be placed in each of the six placepot races (normally the first six races on the card). You can choose more than one horse in any of the races to increase your chances of winning.

Get them all correct and you can hit the jackpot!

To place a placepot bet use a placepot play slip, which you will find at the course.

Another popular bet - especially if you've missed the start of the placepot or it has fallen by the wayside before the 3rd race.

As before, just pick a horse to be placed in each of the four quadpot races which are normally races 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Use a quadpot play slip, which you will find at the course, to place your bet.

Pick the winners of the six jackpot races at the nominated jackpot meeting each day. Not easy - but the potential rewards are huge!

You can choose more than one horse in any of the races to increase your chances of winning.

Use a jackpot play slip, which you will find at the course, to place your bet.

Pick at least one horse in the six nominated televised races each Saturday. Get all six winners to scoop a potentially massive dividend AND qualify for a big money bonus.

Even finding a placed horse in every race pays an average dividend of over £500 to a £1 stake.

Use a totescoop6 play slip to place your bet.

Pick the winner of the race. To place a £2 'Win' bet on horse number 4 simply say "£2 win on 4"

Pick a horse to be 'placed' in the race (i.e. come in the top 2, 3 or 4 depending on how many runners in the race).

However, you will receive a reduced return on your stake because your horse is more likely to be placed than simply win outright. The odds are normally reduced to 1/4 or 1/5 of the stated odds.

Your selections need to be placed as follows:

Up to 4 runners – no place betting

5 – 7 runners – 1st & 2nd

8+ runners – 1st, 2nd & 3rd

Handicap 16+ runners – 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th

To place a £2 'Place' bet on horse number 4 simply say "£2 place on 4"
