There are a number of different bets that can be placed
on horse races. The most popular include:
- Win
bets require you to pick the ultimate winner of the race.
- Place
bets require you to pick a horse that finishes 1st or
2nd in a race of 5 to 7 runners, or 1st, 2nd or 3rd in
races of 8 or more runners. Place bets are not taken on
races with less than 5 runners.
- Each
way bets require you to pick a winner
that wins or gets a place. An each way bet is actually
two bets in one. Half of your total stake is a win bet
and half is a place bet.
- Forecasts
require you to name the two horses that will pass the
winning post 1st and 2nd, in order.
- Tricasts
require you to name the three horses that will pass the
winning post 1st, 2nd and 3rd, in order.
