Horse Racing Betting Markets

All the horse racing odds offered by a bookmaker will be found on the horse racing section, where you’ll find a number of different markets available to play.

Among the most common are the To Win and Each Way betting markets:

  • To Win: This is a bet placed on a horse to win a race.
  • Each Way: This is a bet on a horse to either win or place. Your stake will be doubled as it is ultimately two bets. If the horse wins, you win both elements of your Each Way bet. If it only places, then you lose the To Win section and win the Each Way, which pays out a fraction of the odds. 

There are other markets that can also be backed, including:

  • Forecast: This is a wager in which players must pick the horse to finish first and the horse to finish second in the race.
  • Tricast: A Tricast is a bet that sees a player needing to correctly predict first, second and third in a race. 
  • Distance: You can bet on a horse to win the race by a particular distance, which boosts the odds of the To Win market.
