i dont bet on horses. What's a place bet? Just finishing in the first 3 or something?

 

yep, bang on.

 

"Pick a horse to be 'placed' in the race (i.e. come in the top 2, 3 or 4 depending on how many runners in the race).

 

However, you will receive a reduced return on your stake because your horse is more likely to be placed than simply win outright. The odds are normally reduced to 1/4 or 1/5 of the stated odds.

 

Your selections needs to be placed as follows:

Up to 4 runners – no place betting

5 – 7 runners – 1st & 2nd

8+ runners – 1st, 2nd & 3rd

Handicap 16+ runners – 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th

 

To place a £2 'Place' bet on horse number 4 simply say "£2 place on 4" "

 

NOM NOM, carries seven pounds more than last year.

 

wonder if that would work for usain bolt.

i fancy beat the boys for a 100-1 outsider. £2 on it to win... anything can happen in the national.

 

and don't push it for a more realistic 25-1 if the going is good.

Its any horses race, number of years all the favorites have fallen on the last hedge.

 

Ive just place bets on horses that might win, or have 100/1 (just in case) Nozic, comply or die, and Flintoff. My dad says im pissing in the wind......
