PLACE ONLY AND INSURANCE HORSE RACING BETTING

In addition to Win-Only, Each-Way, Accumulators, Multiples, Forecast and Tricast betting, our fixed odds horse racing betting service also includes Place Only, Insurance and Betting Without Named Horse markets.

Find out more about how these markets work below.

Place Only horse racing betting: This is a straight single bet on the horse to place i.e. finish in the first two, three or four depending on the number of runners in the race. If it finishes in the first 2/3/4 your bet wins. If it doesn't your bet loses.

Insurance horse racing betting: This is a bet on the horse to win but you get your stake back (rather than losing the bet) if it finishes second or third, depending on the number of runners in the race. As a result you get a slightly shorter price than the usual 'to win' price.

Betting Without A Named Horse: This is a bet on your horse to win excluding a given other horse in the race (normally the favourite). I.e. your bet will win if your horse either wins the race or finishes second behind the horse, otherwise it loses.
