Betting on races online is quite similar to how you would bet if you were at the racecourse – only you don’t have to be there in person.
Once you have found a race you’re interested in, simply click on the card to discover the latest racing odds and then choose the horse you feel you want to wager on.
You will then be able to view your betting options, place your stake, and click through to bet.
When it comes to betting on horse races, you’ll quickly discover there are many different types. Probably the most common is a single bet, which involves just one race and one outcome. However, there are many other options too.
These include an each-way bet, which is essentially split in two parts with one half involving a win and the other a place in a pay-out position. It’s possible for punters to put a stake on multiple races too, with bets such as an accumulator, double and single, or even placepots and jackpots involving a whole day’s racing at one course.
When you’re looking at the latest odds for betting at horse racing, the number presented typically represents the amount of money you can expect to win as a return, based on your stake.
For example, if a horse’s odds are 10/1, for each ‘unit’ you bet, you will receive 10 in return plus your stake – if you are successful. So if you bet £1 for a horse to win at 10/1, and it does, you’ll receive £10, plus your £1 stake, totalling £11.
