Q: How do odds work on Horse Racing?

Odds are calculated in Horse Racing based on the horse’s chances of success in their race. You will traditionally see these odds displayed as a fraction. The odds at the top of the list are the horses that are considered the favourites, while further down the list, you will see the outsiders. You can decide if you want to back one of the favourites or take a chance with an outsider.

Q: How much could you win by betting on Horse Racing?

On the 11:58 Compiegne 2m1f Chs race, if you bet £10 on Lande Doudairies at odds of 21.0, you could win £210. Your potential return in horse depends on the bet type and odds of your selections. In a multiple, if all your selections win, you could accumulate a larger return than you would by placing level stakes on each runner individually. By placing a single bet, you only need one horse to win to pick up a return. If you choose to take the odds at the time the bet is placed, we will display your potential returns for you, so you know exactly how much you will win.

Q: What are the most prestigious Horse Racing Competitions to bet on?

The UK spring racing schedule kicks off with the Cheltenham Festival, which features the showpiece Gold Cup and several other Grade I races. The event is famed for its atmosphere, in particular the Cheltenham roar which accompanies the start of the first race. You can view Horse Racing Tips here. Also in the spring is the Grand National held at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool, which is the richest jumps race in Europe. The race is watched by hundreds of millions worldwide and is famous for attracting viewers not normally interested in racing. The highlights of the summer flat racing schedule includes the Epsom Derby, which offers the highest prize of any single race in Britain. It is one of five English Classic races and forms the middle leg of the Triple Crown along with the 2,000 Guineas and St Leger. The Royal Ascot meeting in June is also one of flat racing’s jewels with eight Group 1 races and the highest total prize pot of any race meeting in Britain. The race is famed for its daily Royal processions which precede the action. Other famous UK and Ireland racecourses with notable meetings include Newmarket, York, Goodwood, Doncaster, the Curragh and Leopardstown. Outside of the British Isles, popular races include the Kentucky Derby, held in the USA in the springtime; the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, hosted in Paris in the autumn; and November’s Melbourne Cup, held in Australia.

Q: What are the big 5 Horse Races in the UK?

The five biggest horse races in the United Kingdom are known as the British Classics. These iconic races are run during the flat racing season and are open to horses that are three years old. They are as follows. The 2,000 Guineas Stakes is the first of the five British Classic races on the calendar and is held at Newmarket Racecourse in Suffolk in either late April or early May. The 2,000 Guineas Stakes was first held in 1809 and is run over a distance of one mile. The 1,000 Guineas Stakes is the second of the five British Classic races and is also held at Newmarket Racecourse in Suffolk. The 1,000 Guineas Stakes is traditionally staged on the Sunday after the 2,000 Guineas Stakes and is run over a distance of one mile. The first running of the 1,000 Guineas Stakes was in 1814. The Oaks Stakes is the third of the five British Classics and is held at Epsom Downs Racecourse at either the back end of May or early June. The Oaks Stakes is run over one mile, four furlongs, and six yards. First run in 1779, the Oaks Stakes is one of the most prestigious events on the flat racing calendar. The Derby Stakes is the penultimate race of the five British Classics and is run at Epsom Downs Racecourse on the first Saturday of June every year. The Derby Stakes was first held in 1780 and is run over one mile, four furlongs, and ten yards. The St Leger Stakes is the final of the five British Classics and is held at Doncaster Racecourse in September. Run over one mile, six furlongs, and 132 yards, the St Leger Stakes is the longest of the five British Classics. As well as being the furthest in distance, the St Leger Stakes is also the oldest of the British Classics having been first run in 1776.

Q: What are the most popular types of bets in Horse Racing?

The most popular bet type in Horse Racing is for a selection to win the race. You can choose to take the horse’s odds at the time the bet is struck or you can choose SP (starting price). Multiple bets such as Lucky 15s, Yankees and Accumulators are also popular in horse racing. These allow you to add more than one selection to your bet and help you generate larger potential returns.
